Today it was for around 11 hours, with a break for lunch and for two cups of tea. Large building, only 4-5 people in it, but everyone is paranoid, and we all wear masks.
You should not be working 11 hours a day. That's insane.
I honestly don't understand why people have a problem wearing a mask.
I've been wearing them off and on, whenever needed, ever since I first began working at age 12. That would be 64 years ago.
Most were dust/particle masks, but there were years when I wore a full spray mask w/ canisters all day long, every day.
I wore them because they all helped me a lot more than they inconvenienced me. Sure, they would get hot, but I could always take one off and give myself a break, but at day's end, I always felt a lot better than if I hadn't worn one. There were days when I didn't, and wished I had a mask.
One thing's for sure; the new ones are lighter, cooler and easier to wear than the earlier ones. I think a person just needs to get used to wearing one. It doesn't take long.
And at my age, even if one of the old ones was all I had, I would still wear it. nothing has changed about the use- I can still take one of and catch a break whenever I need to. All I need for that is a spot where I can get a safe distance from other folks for a few minutes.
Covid is too rough on everyone who catches it to avoid protection. And refusing to wear a mask for political reasons is flat out idiocy.

Because government telling us that we must do it. That is the difference between you wearing it voluntary and being able to take it off anytime you want and being told you must wear it.
" refusing to wear a mask for political reasons is flat out idiocy"
No matter how many times this truth is told the foolish will never listen. We are in a worldwide pandemic that has killed 503,000 people and the number is still growing. Countries who have mandated wearing a mask have flattened the curve and we still have idiots saying this is political. God what have become as a nation.
I don't have a problem with people not wearing a mask. Those who choose not to wear a mask should not be allowed inside a building like a grocery store. If you go inside a building with other people you wear a mask or you don't go inside. It's no different then stores not allowing people to go in without a shirt on, or shoes. I don't want to breath your body fluids if you wear a mask it keeps those body fluids to yourself.
I keep two masks with me if a store has very few people I wear the cloth mask if it's packed I put on the KN95 mask.
I think it's funny watching a video of someone yelling into a camera then later it's published everywhere on the internet. They look so foolish getting all angry about it.
Costco was the first to enforce masks ton of videos online angry shoppers.

Does it really matter who advises us to wear masks? You wear them for your health and others. Have you noticed, this is world wide. This is not political, the particles getting into people's systems can not be seen.
Coughing and sneezing, talking loudly, is when they say the horrific virus escapes. At least, listen to scientists and doctors. Where is common sense in this nightmare?
The theory that merely wearing a mask will protect ones self is absurd. CoVid19 can stay on surfaces up to 3 days..so why aren't gloves mandated too? CoVid19 can enter via the eyes..so why is eye protection not mandated? Its possible for CoVid19 to land on hair so why isn't all hair mandated to be covered as in head/arms? Add all this up and IF you believe the Government, doctors and media are telling 100% gospel truth(snicker) then only real effective prevention is a complete chemo-bio hazmat suit. Oh and restaurants should all be closed..why..people enter with mask then order then take mask off to eat thus everybody is breathing each others air..
