To anyone thinking Covid can be eradicated, you're just wrong. it's never going away. Wearing masks won't stop it, just like it didn't stop it during the height of the pandemic. Just like the flu or the common cold, it is a virus that we'll have to contend with for the rest of our lives. There are exceptions in In-N-Out's policy if you read the article. If you work there and still don't like it, find a new job. Literally 90% of places I enter these days has a "now hiring" sign on the door. Work somewhere else.
"It's never going away, so don't do something that helps mitigate it." What??
How about just not coming to work when you're sick? like a normal fucking person...
How about "I'm going to wear this mask so I don't blow germs over you, your food, and my coworkers because the boss forced me to come to work sick?"
It's a braindead response to believe this is about "eradicating COVID." People like you ensured that this would be impossible years ago.
No one is forcing you to go to work. if you're sick, stay the fuck home.
