Shabbos mode should take care of that issue.
"Myth #5: When an oven is in STAR-K Sabbath mode during Shabbos, the oven door may be opened in order to remove some food, then closed, and subsequently opened once again in order to remove more food.
Fact: On Shabbos, when an oven is in STAR-K Sabbath mode and the oven door is opened, all of the food in the oven must be removed before closing the door. On Yom Tov, it is not necessary to remove all of the food when the oven door is opened."

Why won't waiting to open until the fire goes on help for this?

Because that causes the flame to burn longer, Like adding oil to a candle that is already burning.
(Obviously It's not "like" that, otherwise It wouldn't be allowed even when the oven is empty.)

Does BMG have a parking lot on Squankum?
They put up a huge cell phone tower (not temporary) by Lakewood/Howell border.

Never had a problem in the stores you mentioned but once I had an experience with a middle aged male who verbally started up with me in ShopRite on RT 70 in Brick.

I think it’s too early to tell since everyone is wearing masks so all you see is ppls eyes...
Additionally, the mask covers the famous “Jewish nose” so they may not know if you’re even Jewish!!

The guy in ShopRite was wearing jeans and a black leather jacket and I was in a black suit and tie. He said I looked like a gangster.
