    Use to be, when you saw someone wearing a mask, they were a criminal robbing someone/someplace.
    Now, if you aren't wearing a mask, "YOU" are the criminal.

    I believe wearing a mask protects me from others. Everyone is allowed their own opinion. But when you see someone inside their car alone, driving down the road wearing a mask and possibly a face shield, you can only shake your head and wonder.

    I used to think that but maybe they're the smart one's? They're not constantly touching it and contaminating it.

    Not really, you mess with the mask because it itches or whatever, i dont care who you are......and living on earth, you contaminate things sometimes, actually being exposed to germs in small amounts is how u build Immunity so they dont become big problems later......and wearing a mask while driving alone is completely unnecessary and dangerous......

    The masks are only a minor problem. Wait until employment requires vaccination. You can bank on that.

    I’m sure they will. Personally I don’t plan on taking it until I make sure people aren’t dropping like flies from it. Lol. Y’all can be my guinnea pigs. If employment requires it, I’ll just kick back and be a professional beer drinker for a year or so and see how it goes.
