That was really nice of you and the Mrs. :thumbsup:Kharma is such a strange beast.
Yesterday Mrs Fixer made sure everybody working in her store had a nice, washable mask.
Today corparate deemed her non-essential.
Now I say strange beast because corparate had passed out a bunch of cheesy masks about as effective as panty hose.
Yup bare no expense for your staff, right? So had they deemed her non essential just two days ago the entire staff would be facing dozens of strangers on a daily basis in one of the largest outbreak areas in our state. Such is the irony.
What's that saying? "No good deed goes unpunished"?
We'll be ok, she's just bummed to be stuck at home for the next while. I suppose I'll come home from work to croche'd slippers, doggy jackets, table cloths, curtains, and who knows what.
Last evening I remembered a 77 year old dude at my work and asked Mrs. Fixer if she could make just one more mask. He's a really awesome dude and it weighed upon my heart we had not made one for him.
She made this one for him.
He stands about 6.5' tall and at 77 could beat three of us pups in basketball by himself. The look on his face was as if it were made out of solid gold. His eyes watered briefly until he contained himself. It made my year.
The fogging glasses issue is absolutely no joke, if anyone has a solution for that, you'd probably make a lot of people happy....
My wife was flipping through the news channels this morning and a poor girl on CNN had a paper type mask on that wasn't even covering her nose and flipping around everywhere.
Its a tough one, even with the right PPE, not knowing how to use/wear makes it useless. Even health carers dont get it right, after all we are only human. In fact front line workers are still not getting adequate PPE here . Very frustrating, we have 56 health workers now passed away due to covid19. Giving their lives to help others. This will be all over the world and not just UK.
Very sad times.
