    If I’m feeling sick, or my family is, I will wear one to work, the whole point of them is to minimize spread of disease.

      Indeed. Western society tends to be individualistic and forgets that masks are primarily used to protect those around you from disease.

        Tends to? They beat us over our heads with their selfishness through COVID.

        “Why are you wearing a mask?!?” Because I didn’t want to get you sick, thanks for returning the favor.

        I agree, but the bosses boss wants butts to warm the seats. I make sure those days have time taking to bosses boss. Some day, they may get the point.

      Just out of curiosity - no judging, but why do you go to work when feeling ill?

        A lot of people get paid by hours worked so not showing up means a lower monthly income. And hourly contracts don’t have sick leave in many cases. At least in several countries around the world.

        No work no money. No money no food. No food, die. RIP

        I work from home, with about one day in the office a week, if it’s something minor, or I think it’s just seasonal allergies, I’ll still go in.
