don't get me wrong, i really do sympathise with spectators and i'd be going nuts if i wasn't working in the industry too. spectators are important, but essential? right now, this year? no. we need to make sure the industry survives until a vaccine is freely available first and we can go back to welcoming spectators into our workplaces.
streamed tv coverage and social media keep people far closer to the sport than ever before, let's use that to our benefit.

this was my experience too - at the shops i was trying really hard and it just wasn't possible to account for other peoples unwillingness to distance all the time. the difference between individual stores in the same brand of supermarket is pretty significant too.
to be honest i think we're all good at some stuff and rubbish at others - for example getting into a routine of using hand sanitiser regularly at work is a bit of a mental block for me, whereas going around cleaning surfaces more regularly is a very easy habit.
but it's hard to have patience for people who aren't trying, or aren't watching those around them to make sure they're taking appropriate precautions.
