    I got these at Walmart last weekend for about 3 bucks. They have 4 vents on them that I'm going to take off and cover with gorilla tape. Should be good for walking through all the mist from my truck into the office at the truck wash twice a month. They really should change their protocol and set up a pay booth before the truck gets into the bay instead of making the driver get soaked twice.

    Folded up paper towels might be the 20200312_210809.jpg only respirator available if I get in a tight spot.

    I agree, Chinatown. But what do we do if we get infected while on the job? Isolate for 2-3 weeks in our truck?

    I'll probably go into the "self-denial" mode.
    18 yrs. pulling reefers and never had to worry about a paycheck or downturns in the economy.
