Like what is the purpose of not having indoor dining if you’re just having indoor dining but outdoors?
Also the fact that restaurants can build the makeshift storefronts on a whim but any attempt to build shelter by the houseless is immediately shot down and met with force.
When a restaurant needs space in the street to spread Covid it’s fine and a good idea but bike lanes are communism and we can’t have those. Same with not wanting the homeless to die
Literally lost the bike lane (and one kkkar lane) on one leg of my commute home from work to a row of shitty restaurants doing street seating
At some restaurants, the outdoor dining is more tightly packed than just having people spread out to the farthest corners of a restaurant.
Omg it's so frustrating. It's just rule lawyering and it undercuts the validity of all the efforts to stop covid.
This entire mess has been littered with shit like this.
It's like people are trying to outsmart the virus or pretend it has a goal or something.
It spreads through surfaces or droplets, you idiots.
You can't get by on technicalities. "Oh, we're not allowed more than six people inside this building at once? Well sir, we're actually currently outside in this beer garden".
It's a new building now everything is fiiiiine, just let the covid flow into your loopholes.
wage slave alike was chomping at the bit to keep shit open
I mean..... Every worker I know wanted things to stay closed as long as the unemployment kept coming in.
Obviously those people need to live I think saying they were chomping at the bit to reopen is a bit disingenuous.
They're talking about things like this and this. Restaurants are building shelters so they can obey the letter of the law by having "outdoor dining"--it's not inside the restaurant after all--while totally ignoring the spirit because if you're in a tent or a plywood structure, you might as well just be inside for all the good it's going to do you for stopping the spread of Covid. It's a farce.
None of the what you’ve said above.
“Outdoor” dining simply means not within the physical brick and mortar building. They’re just putting up walled in tents, domes, and plywood structures which still technically qualifies as “outdoor” dining despite being in an enclosed area, rendering it no different than dining indoors in the first place. That’s what I’m mad about
