there were signs outside the stores (presumably from corporate) about masks
I would be writing to corporate about that store.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
NASA Livestream - It's bad enough we had to listen to Elon Musk, but now Air Force One shows up?!?

Have people seen the video of a Costco employee refusing to let a man without a mask buy things? Seemingly he posted it and has received a good deal of support.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Just curious, about how many people wear masks when you are at a store these days? Seems like it's fallen to about 10% in my area.
We wear masks whenever we go anywhere. We take turns going to stores or for curbside pick up. We have cloth masks but I bought a box of disposables just in case to keep in the car--that way, if we forget ours or I don't have time to wash them, we have them.
Stores are hit or miss here. Staff wears masks at grocery stories and restaurants. Some days we have 50-50% mask wearers, some days we have 10-20%. I get really uncomfortable when I see a lot of folks not wearing masks.
Our lawnmower died and we had to go to Lowe's to pick one out. It was crowded and less than half the people were wearing masks. We were in and out in 15 minutes.
I wear a mask at work all day. But not all of us do. About half the people are masking and our director is one that does not.
And we're probably opening to the public in two weeks or so. If the board approves the opening plan.

I'm alone in the office so I don't wear a mask there. I don't wear a mask when I'm home and sometimes take it off when I run down the hall to the trash room. But I do wear a mask to do laundry, since it's a shared space and a number of older people are in the building. I'm kind of high risk, since I'm 68 and have "underlying health conditions" but I'm OK so far.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
After that video, I was real disappointed in my local Costco apparently letting 2 different people be in the store without masks. I asked employees if they were aware of the lady in the black tank top without a mask, and they were all "Yeah. Oh. That's a different lady. Yeah."
Way to undermine the work on health and safety branding, folks.

Waiting for the tweet about NASA being wusses from Trump.

Our wings are not tired.
Yes, doesn't look so good for Saturday either. I was looking forward to it, so digits crossed that the rainy season takes a break.
