If I'm feeling sick, or my family is, I will wear one to work, the whole point of them is to minimize spread of disease.

Just out of curiosity - no judging, but why do you go to work when feeling ill?

[-] DigitalAudio@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 year ago

A lot of people get paid by hours worked so not showing up means a lower monthly income. And hourly contracts don’t have sick leave in many cases. At least in several countries around the world.

No work no money. No money no food. No food, die. RIP

Not an American, I take it?

I work from home, with about one day in the office a week, if it's something minor, or I think it's just seasonal allergies, I'll still go in.
