Would you do business with a company who's employees aren't wearing masks? (March)

Hopefully.

Never let it be said that I'm 100% partisan.

Being someone who leans libertarian, I'm not much into the concept of force.

But that doesn't mean that people should be dicks either.

I'd like more people to be more considerate of others.

I'd like more stores to care about me a customer.

Wearing a mask isn't going to kill you.

It's not a permanent situation, your not losing any rights.


It called being a decent human.

And that's neither Liberal or Conservative.

I'm so sick of the virtue signaling.

Not bashing the OP, but some of the responses.

"If people CARE..." blah blah blah

I wouldn't give y'all crap if I thought you were being sincere.

But I don't.

You're just trying to show off to everyone else how awesome of a person you are, and nobody actually cares.

My employer has not mandated masks since the beginning of the pandemic, but has provided them. It is up to the employees to wear them or not as they choose. I personally have not worn a mask at work for the past three weeks, and prior to that only wore one when the store got crowded. We have had a grand total of one customer walk out over the fact that we weren't wearing masks.

I'm not much into virtue signaling (check the status under my username lol).

I rarely wear a mask outside of work or in a store

I almost never wear one outside unless there's other people in close proximity.

But as someone who's a high risk individual and also an essential employee ....

I'd would just prefer that stores extend me the same courtesy that I show my customers and value me as a customer if they want my business.

Given masks are for the protection of others not yourself......it says quite a bit about the business.

It depends on the goods/services and how badly I need them. I walk into a gift store with employees not wearing masks, not encouraging distancing, taking no measures rightn ow -- that speaks to their customer relations....and probably wouldn't bother with them.

I don't NEED their product so why bother.

I would actually prefer to patronize businesses where employees don't wear masks, and customers aren't expected to wear masks either. The ultimate would be a business where, at least for whimsical purposes, there would be a sign prominently affixed to the front door: "Warning! Masks strictly prohibited inside. Entry expressly denied to anyone wearing a mask, or other facial covering".

Same. I’m not going to put myself at more risk going in and out of multiple stores assessing who is or isn’t wearing masks. I go to my local grocery store, get what I need, and go. The cashiers are all now behind plexiglass so mitigation steps are taking place.

I will not patronize a business where masks aren't required. There is no reason not to require patterns and employees to wear masks.

Sure. I'd take my mask off and compliment them on having the ability to think for themselves.
You know that small businesses are safer than the big retail chains that were allowed to stay open, right? So why were they forced to close, again?
