Corona Virus Panic as a Grocery Store Worker

A mask won't do much when your eyes are still uncovered. You would have to have the balls to wear goggles or a full head gas mask to work. Also, you'd need a high quality mask and you'd need to put it on correctly.

In my opinion, @yourhomieishere will probably get sick sooner or later, so you should really try to minimize contact with people outside of your family and get your family members to do the same, so spread would be minimized, helping the healthcare system a lot.

 

Perhaps, but you're decreasing the chance of getting it and that's good not to mention the fact that you protect others too. Wear a mask.

There is a reason why the whole world is shitting itself, the 'just the flu' comments are completely ridiculous. You absolutely can die of this thing even as a young and healthy person. The numbers are bs too. If you're in an area with not enough hospital beds and nobody to care for you... then it's bad.

 

Yeah, we are pretty screwed. Society's current actions on "flattening the curve" is not flattening it enough at all.

 

Today while I was standing in line, an old woman touched me from behind accidently because she didn't even try to keep her distance from me! I was fucking furious but didn't show it. I hope I am not infected!

 

Yeah, the main problem is that people don't understand the true severity of the situation, causing further spread.

Touch shouldn't be a problem as long as you wash your clothes quick and wash your body.
It's more the fact that you guys were so close, so her breath (or if she coughs/sneezes) could transmit it to you (I think that's how it works).

Getting into a scuffle with an old lady in a line is pretty bad by society's social standards. Maybe a polite, "would you please move a bit?" or something?

 

Totally agree.

 

Most masks don't help. The ones that do need to be fitted by a trained mask fitter.

 

So sorry to hear this, I know how it feels to be constantly worried about this virus and people around don't make me feel any better as well... I've never been to the therapy before this corona stuff. In the beginning, I was scared to get out of the house, I even left my job. It was horrible. As soon as the restrictions were a little bit more relaxed I went to a therapist. Very cute lady. She was a little bit shocked seeing me dressed with 'the full package' on, hahaha. I had the mask on, gloves and even those little bags you put on your shoes. When I tell you... I was crazy. There was a site clean4less that kept bringing up new cleaning products every day, I swear I was buying everything.

 

so this is old but from the original post, you said something about not having soap to wash with. I might suggest learning to make your own soap(very simple to do, essentialy just lye distilled water and oil/fat) I learned to make it several months back

 

The way people are getting fat liposuction clinics may very well have extra fat to make soaps from... You can sell to high end department stores and make a good profit without the retail job.

 

just make sure to wear disposable clothes when you raid their dumpsters

 

Tyler bleeding over Lou saying "you don't know where I've been" takes on new gravity too.
