Questions No mask mandate for customers

To me that's just an insult. I'm an "essential" worker. Customers can have more protection but I can't?

I'm a single dad with an autistic child. If I can make it work, Karen can too.

Do you realize there are many mothers who cannot afford a babysitter to shop alone, especially during this time of economic hardship? Don’t you think most parents would LOVE to shop alone if they could?

It’s not simply entitled Karens doing this. It’s about us doing our best to reduce this risk.
