Fully vaccinated or not, many workers are still required to wear a mask in the workplace. We can do a small thing to signal our solidarity with other workers, even if they don’t recognize it.

I tried going without a mask at Costco today but felt crappy when I looked around and all the workers still are required to wear them. I felt better and more connected to my fellow workers once I put it back on.

    Yeah out in the rural mountain west you sacrifice significant social capital if you go anywhere in a mask and are under 80. People will absolutely think less of you or, bizarrely, will take personal offense. It's a calculus you gotta do
