Hey Josh!
Honestly, that sounds awful! I know I would also have a lot of anxiety in your situation. I spent nearly 3 years working in hospitality and I remember how anxious I would be at times approaching guests about moving from a hallway or to stop blocking a doorway because I never knew how each person would react!
I wish I had personal experience with this specific mask situation to really help but what I would advise is to remember that when you’re asking/telling people to put a mask back on or social distance, you are following the rules and you are doing it to keep people safe! I am sure that you get plenty of pushback and rude remarks from people that don’t believe in wearing masks but remember that even if people are rude, YOU are following your training and you are keeping people safe and healthy. Don’t take rude remarks personally (even though it is hard) because they aren’t mad at you, but rather probably mad at the whole state of 2020 and they don’t want to accept that masks and social distancing can mitigate the spread.
