None since I was smart enough to get a vaccine.

How it looks is personal opinion. Again, I don’t care how it looks and it certainly isn’t any more uncomfortable than wearing a bra.
Back in the day, when I worked in a corporate environment, I was required to wear hose with dresses/skirts. “Required” as in female employees would get written up if they showed up to work with bare legs.
I’d rather wear a mask. At minimum, it doesn’t feel like a completely arbitrary request.

You ladies are apparently too sexy looking with bare legs. Best not to distract your coworkers.

I never went into a business for 'pleasure', ie: shopping for things I don't need, or eating at a restaurant, the entire year. I did my job, went to the gas station to fill up my car, in the beginning I went into a store for quick purchases of food, not long shops, and I went home. That was it.

When the CDC made the announcement that we didn't need to wear masks anymore, I had the next day off. I wanted to spoil myself for a change, and go get restaurant food to take home. I went to the closest place that has a variety of choices, and the restaurant I chose was the one that said we didn't have to wear a mask to enter.

I could have chosen 20 different restaurants, but the one that got my business was the one who didn't insist on one.

Still not sick, never got sick, still not dead, despite how many people on here insisted that I would indeed get sick and die because I didn't wear a dumb mask.

Prior to your vaccine how many hours?

It seems like a lot of people who don’t have to wear them to work or school think they are no big deal. Just curious if you wore them 6 to 8 hours a day, five days a week prior to your vaccine or if you’re one who rarely had to wear them.

"Lose it"? What does that even mean?

I won't comply. It's pretty straightforward and simple. Nothing will be "lost," as I won't be giving anything up.

1 - we were never really in a "lockdown". Anyone who thinks we were needs to open up a newspaper from another part of the world and see what a lockdown really looks like.

2 - I hated wearing a mask, but if I'm asked to, I will. It's a stupid piece of fabric on my face. Don't make a big deal about something so ridiculous.
This dumb canard again, as if mass house arrest was just a totally normal and reasonable reaction, and we Americans should be falling over ourselves to show gratitude for being somewhat exempt from it. Trying to liken it to having gotten the EZ Pass and most of the rest of the world having had to wait in line for the tolls...when the reality is, the roads should be free for everyone.

I had to wear one for 10 hours 5 days a week before I got vaccinated. It wasnt a big deal. If my job brings them back for the vaccinated I wouldnt like it, but I can wear it with no problem.

Thanks for answering. I would love to hear more from others about their experience.

I don’t have to wear them for long so they aren’t a big deal overall to me personally but my kids have to wear them all day everyday at school and for sports and I’m very much against going back to that.
