We’ve not had those up for like a year. How do you not live here or another such staunchly right-leaning area?

Why even go to the trouble to remove them? Those could have stayed up for years with no impact other than reduced transmission of COVID, colds, and flu.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Terror? I just wouldn't spend the time and money to remove the barriers are already there.

Somebody's gotta clean the spit and grime off those things, you know. What do you think those things would look like if they left them up for years?

Gotta go with B on this one. If the customers aren't complaining, leave the barriers alone. They help. Hell, they should probably upgrade them to bulletproof glass now before the demand spikes this summer.

I paid with a card and she didn't have to touch it.
I guess she should’ve removed her PPE and taken down the plexiglass just for you and your specialness.

Do you wait for other people to open doors so you won't have to touch them?

I would have really appreciated that, but service pretty much across the board is not what it used to be.

They may very well be counter productive. Creating barriers to airflow that don't capture aerosols is not particularly helpful.

This thread is the perfect example of the once-great Generation X reduced to Boomer-esque levels of discourse. Congrats everyone, you made it to middle age and as such can continue your downward spiral to the bitter depths of old age! You should be proud you've made it this far!
