I work in South Korea. Everyone here wears masks even when they are outside. I've seen joggers running with masks. It's crazy. You can sit inside a coffee shop without one, but God forbid you get seen outdoors without one. It's the most insane version of group think I've ever seen. My boss' dad was a politician, she knows how they can lie and previously I appreciated her level of critical thinking. But now... I refuse to wear a mask outside. She saw me on the street and asked me to put it on. i refused. I was reamed out for being unscientific and reckless. I didn't budge. Even if I thought masks work, I do not see the benefit of wearing one 24/7.
Just needed to vent a little. I'm leaving Korea soon, so quiting my job atm is not an option. Like I said, just needed to vent.
I’m with you, I refuse to wear a mask outside. I live in Illinois so the entire state is still under mask mandate but you can be sure that I will not be wearing a mask once it’s dropped and any store that requires one will not get my business. If we stop shopping at those stores maybe they’ll get with the program. We need to stand up and fight against these assholes that think we are sheep to follow by their rules
I wish I had that option, but if I stopped supporting places that require masks I'd literally starve. Not an exaggeration. I do have a rule though, if people can take off their masks inside to eat or drink, I don't wear one upon entering. Have only had one person challenge me and I laughed in his face. He still took my money.
