I am in a mask mandated state, in a suburban area that is very compliant.
I have been having some work done on my house for a month. Every time a worker comes in they have a mask, and every time I tell them they don't need to wear it unless they want to at my house. Some immediately take it off and smile, others keep it on. Today I am happy to say there are 5 guys from 3 different companies in my house, 3 of whom kept the mask on in previous visits, Not one guy is wearing a mask today, all in the same room. It is a glorious site to see.
My wife thought I was annoying people by saying something every time. I thought I might be annoying them too, but kept doing it. And now I have seen these great results.
it sucks that these companies are doing this to their employees. There is one guy on the crew that stopped wearing his mask a while back, but when his boss the owner is there, he has it on.
I guess the owners are worried about getting sued. Even just telling people helps, the more people that do this the more uncomfortable the mask becomes
Thanks for saying that telling people helps because it makes the mask feel more uncomfortable. I agree and hadn't thought of that. I have made it a practice to tell parents how glad I am to see that neither they nor their kids are wearing masks.
