What's this?

The worker shortage has motivated me to put it back on.


My old rule was that if my unvaxxed kid had to wear one, I would put one on. Now I do it out of respect for the business owners and employees. Government already makes it tough enough to run a business, they don't need any additional risk. (Tried to take my wife out for an anniversary lunch on a Tuesday. Only sit-down restaurant we could find that was open had two waiters working... a business holding on by that narrow a thread doesn't need this dumbass making a libertarian stand while they try to pay their mortgage.)
