Today work made masks mandatory for everyone while inside buildings or working closely with others outside. I wear glasses and the masks that are available or the pull over tube type of face mask fog up my glasses. Most of the masks I have seen suck on several levels.
What are you all wearing? Where you getting them from? How do you keep them from fogging up your glasses or shades?

Anyone thats not a felon or mentally ill can get one here. Feel threatened, pull out your gun. Happens all the damn time.
In the last 35 years I've never been in a situation where someone pulled a gun on me, threatened me or the family or tried to rob me. Seems to me its like the old Seinfeld joke....if you are constantly having to get blood out of your clothes, laundry is probably not your biggest problem. [Reply]

Why does being prepared and knowledgeable equal being worried to a point that you can't enjoy life?
To me wearing a mask to protect yourself from what is a very low risk of exposure is not much different than carrying a gun to protect yourself from what is also low risk of gunfire. [Reply]

Yeah...it was the longest fucking hour ever. Damn near had Walmart rage a few times..A few peeps almost went for rides in their carts. Good luck keeping these on kids in school [Reply]
These showed up first thing this morning. I got them on ebay. They have the wire over the nose bridge. They don't fog my glasses. They are comfortable, as far as these masks go anyway. It is definitely easier to breathe. I got the PM 2.5 filters with them. I wore one at work today. I am surprised by how good it worked.

Was at Universal City walk over the weekend and they are starting to ban the neck gaiters, bandanas and masks with filters on them. Disney has already done the same thing and insists that everyone be as hot and uncomfortable as possible. I just put my Chiefs bandana back on after entering the gate and no one said anything. Those masks that go around your ears just give me a headache from pulling the hell out of my ears after a few minutes of wearing them so I won’t wear that type of mask. [Reply]

I fly almost every weekend. Take some kind of food or drink with you on the plane or just order something on board so you can take the mask off for a while. I try to eat slow and get a window seat to look away from everyone while I’m eating. [Reply]
