It's now time for just the terror with Nick Guerra.

Unseen. Unseen. Last fall I was on a 12 hour drive leaving from New England. Maybe just an hour of the trip cut through Connecticut.

If you've ever driven through you might know that instead of taking random exits to get gas, food, etc.

Connecticut has sort of state-run rest stops every so often down the interstate that are all pretty

much identical with gas pumps, bathrooms, and restaurants all in the same spot. I needed gas, so I pulled off at one and decided to run in and grab some food first.

My first choice was Burger King, but I noticed none of the people working there were wearing masks. This was fall 2020 and I was pretty nervous about COVID

There was only one other restaurant open so I approached the counter. There was a basic setup

One long counter with slices of pizza displayed behind a

long panel of glass. I walked right up in front of the employee who was behind the glass cutting

the pizza. I waited a few minutes for them to notice me. We're only about

two feet apart from each other, facing each other directly. It didn't seem like they were going to

notice me, which wasn't weird. I know people can be really focused on tasks and not notice their

surroundings. So I said hello, but they didn't even look up at me. I was about to say

something again when I noticed someone walking toward me. I was hyper aware of my surroundings

because I was taking social distancing so seriously.

So I noticed them when they were still about 10 feet away.

They kept walking toward me. I thought they were going to get in line behind me to order

food. I was nervously hoping that they wouldn't stand too close. But they kept on straight

toward me. They actually just kept walking toward me until they were literally about to run into me head on.

I had to fall backward into the side to avoid them crashing into me.

We even brushed arms.

I was pretty shocked and I said, hey, I just wanted to get their attention.
