Oh man... that was me a few weeks ago!

The cashier even had a tag that said “hearing impaired”and she looked miserable. I even said “oh sorry” but with the mask on.. nothing.

I signed to her but my wife corrected me.. I gave a ridiculous sign. She corrected it though. I still felt like a fool.

I have the solution for that. Speak more loudly and slowly. Make up your own signs. Be creative! I do it all the time with people who don't understand English. Works great! ;)
