I find the most stressful is constantly hearing that covid is a glorified flu or its not real or we have no cases in our area .....oh and today I was told I'm "covid crazy" because I wore a mask while serving my customer. I asked her to keep her distance if she didn't want to put her mask on and her reaction was how I'm crazy & that no one would know. I'm following guidelines that allow me to earn a living and I've been forced to close twice due to lock down. Constantly hearing that covid isn't real or how I'm over reacting by doing what is required to stay open for business is draining. I don't want to get sick and I do believe people are dying and I don't want to catch it. For me putting a mask on and keeping my distance is a no brainer and a easy thing to do. My two cents anyways.

I couldn't agree more. When I remind customers to follow guidelines and they say "I'm not worried about the virus" I want to forget social distancing for a second and slug them. It would be worth it.

I started this thread Year ago tomorrow, who would have thunk how things were going to develop.
I wonder @poultry_admin if it may be time to mark the anniversary by closing it?
