The domino effect here, call this, the aftermath of what's happened here, and now, no store clerk DARED, telling the customers who come into the shop without their masks on, to MASK up, from the Front Page Sections, translated…

The prevalence of the cases of super convenience shop clerks getting attacked, causing the workers scared.  An employee of a super convenience shop close to the Gangshan Train Station in Kaohsiung when asked, stated, "of course I'm scared!", especially it'd become, even more dangerous for the graveyard shift workers, and they can only, heighten up their own senses of, alerts; another work of the same location told, that the clerk from before got stabbed because he reminded a customer to mask up, "and, I won't mention it to a customer who's not wearing a mask when s/he comes into the shop from here on out!"

A college student who's been part-timing at the super convenience shop, Lo told, that the storge manager had asked the employees to remind the customers to mask up, and he'd, told the elderly population to, but not dared telling the younger generations, because the younger generations would intentionally, not mask up like they were all supposed to, and, going up to tell them to, it's no guarantee of his own personal, safety, and he was called by a customer, for not telling another customer to mask up, and got scolded by the store manager, but he'd wanted to know, "why is it our responsibility, to tell the customers to mask up?"

The son of the police officer, Lin from Taoyuan works in a super convenience shop, he'd told, that as he'd come across a customer who didn't take his words, and stared him down when he'd told her/him to mask up, he'd felt fearful, but, if he'd not told the customer, he would get reprimanded, and, he and other part-timing employees believed, that it's NOT their responsibilities to tell the customers to mask up, suggested that the act of having the employees to remind the customers to mask up get eliminated.

Lin the store clerk from Hsinbei City told, that in the future, when he interacts with the customers, he will be hypervigilant, will be more aware of their facial expressions, to stay alert, for instance, noting the individuals' tones of voice, and, if there's the opportunities, he'd hoped that the government and the company can set up the means to help them protect themselves, or at least, have the tools that they can, defend themselves with in the shops.

Back in September in Pingdong, the female clerk, Pan got her eyes gouged out, although Pan already returned home, but she's having nightmares of the events of what's happened to her.  The female owner of the shop told, that she hoped that the related organizations can take the matter of employees' safety more seriously, she'd also told her workers to protect themselves, that if there's an irrational customer, in the shortest time, call the police, to avoid direct confrontation with the customers.  The grandmother of the female clerk told, that her granddaughter had been having nightmares, that she had yet to recover from her trauma, hoped that the news media can, leave them alone.

And so, this, is really awful, because, you're only, giving the customers a heads-up, to remind them to mask up, and you risk getting attacked, and this is just, how dangerous this world became, and, because of what'd happened here, it'd caused the workers, to become too fearful, to let the customers know, that they need to, mask up.
