Keep in mind, the last poll I saw showed 75% of the country in favor of a slow re-open. It just takes a few loud idiots to make all this noise.
Unfortunately those idiots like to get in other people's faces, and will be spreading any germs their idiocy nets them. If the effects of the pandemic only hit people who flout safety measures I'd be cheering on the Proud Boys Used PPE Licking Jamboree.
I'm thinking of chalking PLAGUE HOUSE on the sidewalk of the guy down the block who isn't wearing a mask and standing out on the curb.
Yeah, I'm embarrassed and infuriated that the KKK hood was actually here in San Diego County (Santee is its own city - referred to by locals as Klantee, BTW. But still, we like to believe we're better than this sort of thing in CA). The news last night said Santee sheriffs are seeking the guy to press charges.
Talked to Mom =she is still partially moved but her landlady said she could take her time moving the rest of the stuff (the landlady owns both her new and old place). Mom also said we should have gotten together outside some place and 6 feet apart while I wasn't at work and I'm so torn because I want to see mom but I've also been worried about dragging germs around. I probably should have done that. I told her if she wants to drive down here she can sit in her car and I'll stand on the porch and we can talk using the phoen or just yelling. But if I see mom I'll want to hug her.
And she is worried about her cat adjusting to be an inside cat but someone who was helping her moved fell in love with the kitty and offered to take him if he can't adjust.
People were nicer at work, but we were very very lightly staffed and we did find one dressing room where someone moved the barrier and tried something on. I also heard a lot of "but I'm not going to try it on in the dressing room" I do not care do not pull your pants over your shorts. Although at least you didn't take off your shorts first so I guess that's a win.
Macy's had their mall entrance open, which I didn't think they could do. I'm waiting for complaints about how Macy's policies aren't as strict as ours.
And one person was bitching about all the measures and over reaction and I finally said "at least you don't have to worry about catching a cold or anything else right now"
And then there's this jerk: [link]
Askye, I hope your customers are as reasonable as possible. I'm glad your mom's move is going OK.
Laura, congrats to your kids on their new place!
My god, what is wrong with people? I just read the GQ story about the coronavirus outbreak on the Diamond Princess: it's a horror show. And it's apparent that 45 delegated his decision-making to his SIL, who similarly delegated it to his banker friends and Fox News anchors.
Can we please send all of these people to jail for depraved indifference to human life? Maybe then we'll get some criminal justice reform...
Has mask wearing become a culture war issue? That's just... weird.
I guess a KKK hood is an effective social distancing tool, if not a particularly effective mask.
I don't know, makes me want to punch him and that would be exposure, right?
Has anyone revisited "when to punch Nazis" in light of social distancing guidelines?
