At my grocery, most employees no longer wear masks. I still do. I hope they are at least vaxxed.

Even brought in medical personnel to dispense vaccinations one afternoon in our parking lot.

Employees are required to still "mask" but customers are optional. I require the customers to maintain six feet between each other and me.

Take care of yourself out there. I worry greatly about my former co-workers who are still dealing with the ongoing retail BS and the customers.

I have been vaccinated since late February but still wear a mask in supermarkets. I have COPD and other risk factors and do not want to risk breakthrough event.
