I wish store policies could have been different like open dressing rooms for customer, concerning the pandemic.

I would share that if you are pursuing a job during the pandemic, you'll encounter lots of customers on end. There are new policies put in place like mandatory masks and sanitization but make sure you wash your hands and stay safe.
