Of course it's not healthy. I'm certainly not keen on it, but alas, for the time being I still need my job.

Yes. I figured as much.

My wife is in the same position. I'm not going to hassle anyone doing it in the workplace. But it is actually quite legal for them not to wear a mask here in NZ as it's protected by both exemptions, which are wide, and by the Bill of Rights that we have. But it's the ones who wear one in the streets when they've been advised by the Director-General of Health, Ashley Bloomfield, that they don't have to.

Not sure if you're in NZ or not but here's Ashley on another topic;

That story is on the 11th of the 11th. Not really a big deal here but I'm not going to miss the significance.

I'm in the US in a state that currently doesn't have a mask mandate, so it's caused major tension at my job, because my employer requires them only for those of us who won't get the jab. Unfortunately with the current uncertainty surrounding employment for the unjabbed, I'm simply not in a position to just up and quit.

Our Privacy Act precludes them from knowing vaccination status here in NZ. Whether that would work is another matter but if we could get our judges to grow a pair (gametes) it should.

BTW there's not much support for masks in her workplace either. From the bottom to the top.

Except for Jess. But that's no surprise.
