The funniest thing I saw today at the grocery store was the jewelry store section that was closed off to the public with a gate, and the two employees closing up weren't wearing masks. But they were within 6 feet of each other and in the same physical building as the rest of the grocery store where masks were "required" (the saving grace of our new corporate oligarchy is our oligarchs don't pay enough for their henchmen to actually enforce the rules they put in place). Yet some employee 50 feet away from anyone else in the main grocery store section needed to wear a mask.
None of this shit makes any sense, and anyone who thinks these masks are helping anything is clearly not seeing how people are actually implementing these policies.
I asked my friend who works at Walmart the other day how life was treating him with COVID, and he told me (among other things) that fuckin' nobody who works in the back of the store wears masks while back there.
Anecdotal, so take with a grain of salt, but I believe it, given how few fucks most Walmart employees give in general, even absent COVID.
Yes, well, this IS a company that makes its employees say a little mantra at a picture of its founder every day.
I'd believe if anyone has an accurate sense of the severity of the disease it's Walmart employees. They've stayed open this whole time and attracted large crowds as one of the few open stores during the lockdowns. And they probably are more likely than the general population to know someone who tested positive and therefore have a better sense of the severity of the disease than the general population.
