So my state recently lifted the face diaper mandate (not that I complied) but my company was going along with it and was requiring masks.
They were nagging about masks if anyone was working close to someone else or talking close, otherwise if you were at your desk or assembly station you didn't have to.
The majority of the blue collar folks were ignoring it unless yelled at, the white collar people generally played along.
With the state's change the company did the same, and had a disclaimer that if you were close to someone who was continuing to wear a mask you should "social distance" or wear a mask and "respect" their choice.
Because there were some people who wore the mask like all the time. It was assumed these were the true believers who were going to keep doing it.
Today? I haven't seen anyone wearing the face diaper. Even the guy who was wearing it literally all day long. I have no idea how that guy didn't get lung rot.
Feels good man.
Congratulations to any in states that have lifted the mask requirement. I have been living alone out in the country the whole time, only having to wear a mask on quick trips to the grocery store.
Yesterday I met with my accountant, who is a maskie, and had to wear a mask for a half hour while we talked. I felt like I was suffocating, just wanted to rip the damn thing off. I was going to work this summer, but I realized there's no way I could wear one of those things all day. You can see how it would lower your immune system, breathing your own co2 all day. I don't know how anybody does it. Can't possibly be good for you.
Sounds like you need a new accountant
the guy here who wore a mask literally all day long, he lives alone, always wore a mask, always used the foot cleat thingy to open the doors, never touched anything, never went anywhere.
Yeah, he got sick from C19. Very very few people here got sick from it.
Personally I think my wife and I probably had it but you'd better believe we never said anything to anyone. The mutation of it (assuming it's even real) around here that all the old folks had was: Really Tired, maybe a fever, not even coughing.
Well, I had that for about a week and a half. I was so freaking tired it was unreal. Like, get home from work and go to bed I was so tired.
But I sucked it up and never said a word. What do I know? I could still taste food, and I wasn't coughing. The only reason I would think it was C19 was because several people I know had the same symptoms and actually got tested and were pos.
Oh well, whatever.
My son & I had it last February before it was a thing. Tired building up to getting a fever for a day or two & a stuffy nose then tired for week after. My son had the cough too for a week. My husband never got it. We didn’t do anything different other than not going out during my fever. A month later, I told our friends they should be thanking me for staying in!
When I do wear one to the grocery or bank, I pull it off as I walk towards the exit.
