    Mandatory No-Mask is such a weird stance, it violates both Health&Safety and Personal Choice/Freedom.

      Was it even necessary? Like, does In-n-Out have so many staff still wearing masks that they’ve gotta mandate this?

        Yeah, it’s not. From my experience in the restaurant that I visit (in LA) I see maybe 1/4 or 1/5 that still wear them.

        As a parent of a pre-K kid (for those who don’t know, daycares and schools for young kids are grand centrals for microbes) I no longer get sick from covid, but I can still tell I got it, because there are specific symptoms I’m still getting from it that are quite annoying. One of the worst is that for few days I feel just extremely tired. If I have nothing to do, and I can just sleep that time off. Working during that time is no fun.

        So even if mask reduces chance of getting that by half, it is still worth it. It also would help employer as being tired at job one won’t get as productive as they normally could. And this is just my experience, and other people have it worse.

          Just had it for the first time. About a week in I had a day where I was extremely tired, almost like I never fully woke up that morning despite getting a great night sleep. Pretty awful symptom and probably the worst of all the symptoms I had. I could barely function that day. Covid is a strange disease.

      They never cared about personal freedom I’m the first place it was just an excuse not to do what other people wanted them to do.
