In reply to the discussion: MASK REQUIRED FOR SERVICE. --- this 👍😆 [View all]stopdiggin
(11,238 posts)57. interesting
that's a different take than I have/had. I had the impression that most of the signs I ran across were aimed at gross (and offensive) attire. There's always been that clueless (and heedless) 55 year old that thought his speedo was just fine. (while 99% of the remaining population thought he was a gross abomination)
As for a racial disparity in requiring masks -- nah. (but then we all don't live in the same neck of the woods) For my part -- I wish the employees were being much more stringent in requiring compliance (old and young) -- with the support and backing of their management. In far too many instances they are being actively told to "not make a fuss", "don't escalate." A shame -- but that's modern retail for you.

A great sign, and one that should have never been required, if all wore their mask. ...

This is wonderful. What gets my goat is that the major chains are too afraid of losing
