And as you do your daily business maskless, give all a large, toothy grin. It’s amazing how that works. It’s saying “Look at me, I’m maskless and happy. Have a nice day!”. And when you get the sneers, move on happily.

Even up in Soviet Canuckistan where I live the vast majority 95%+ still wear the masks obediently. It's just a conditioned habit at this point. The odd time that some tells me to put one on I politely say "No Thanks" and just keep going. They must think I'm daft to treat it like it's optional LOL.

I admire your resolve. It’s easy for me here in Texas. You have a much harder row to hoe. Keep up the good work.

It seriously does work! I dance to the good tunes in the supermarket and I ask for help when I need it and I get Service with a capital S. It’s a kick!
