flyfishing3 Posted October 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2020 I wouldn't go that far. I'm a fairly in shape guy. Gut, but I exercise regularly. I'm not so much worried about dying as I am about permanent lung damage/Heart. I also see my inlaws pretty often and I'd hate to be the one that gave it to them.

RobT5M Posted October 2, 2020 Report Share Posted October 2, 2020 We've all had it at work. Everyone had a different level, but yet no one got like deathly sick. At worst, the owner had the runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quip1337x Posted October 2, 2020 Report Share Posted October 2, 2020 I work as a server for a steakhouse and we have to work around people eating without masks daily. We all are slightly worried about it but we like to make money and have purpose in life. I try to limit seeing what family I have left in my life and it makes me seem like the asshole for wanting to stay away for their safety. Other countries are beginning their 2nd wave of the virus and its starting to get bad again in some places of the world. If you compare numbers of cases vs. the number of deaths due to covid and the numbers we have in the US, we are on track for a very bad second wave of this. My boss at work told me his mother died from covid a month ago. No pre existing conditions, no warning, just ventilator and then death. It's really easy to say "no one around me has even got it." and then ignore it. There are videos of people who thought the same thing and then when they got the virus they were just scared for their wife. They curse them selves for not taking it seriously. It has been proven the government will lie to us if it means having enough masks for hospital workers. they lied to have enough masks saying "don't ware a mask". people saw that and now they think its a hoax. The thing is if the government is so worried about the covid that they lie to us. how bad is this thing? 5 hours ago, flyfishing3 said: I'm not so much worried about dying as I am about permanent lung damage/Heart.

If people get too close in public I tell them to back off. It has got me into a few problems with people in public. One lady was passive aggressive about it and tried to side swipe my car on the road in her POS Kia. Another guy just wanted a fight but I held my temper. People are VERY on edge right now and some have lost homes, cars, family members. We have to remember this in public situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caanglin Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 I can't think of anyone I know personally who has had it. I always wear a mask outside. I work in Chick Fil A's all around the country and still haven't had it. (knock on wood) Been tested a few times. I even wear my mask when working outside mounting wifi antennas, digital menu boards and cameras by myself. I'm not too worried about it personally. Just trying to do my part to not give it to anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did i ever say i hate my generation? GET THE FUCK OFF OF MY LAWN TOO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
