To Mask or Not

Plan on masking, as is my family on our upcoming cruise anytime we're inside and not actively eating or drinking.   Especially with allowing those under 12 to be unvaccinated.  Would love for someone to make a comment towards one of us

Yeah, I don't get why people need to be rude.  I wouldn't say a thing to someone in a mask.  They could be immuno-compromised from any number of ailments and just want to protect themselves while enjoying a vacation...or maybe they're healthy and just want extra peace of mind.  Whatever the reason, it's none of my damned business.

Exactly, no need to be rude. There are lots of reasons people mask. I actually try to make sure I'm social distancing when I come across people wearing masks. Not because I'm trying to be rude and 'step away', but because I assume they are sensitive to risk. No judgement from me.

This doesn't really happen.  99.9% of us couldn't care less who might be wearing a mask.  Nobody "rolls eyes" or makes rude comments.  That 0.01%?  Probably folks who overhear somebody wearing a mask running on about how awful the rest of the world is.  For that, I might muster an eye roll....🐀

unfortunately there are people who feel is their business, they feel threatened somehow. the concept live and let live doesn't apply to them.

Wrong 

 

We had a few rude comments happen….one lady laughed in the elevator and said like masks really help….
 

And there sure as heck were some eye rolls 

 

And no we don’t preach or say a thing to others if they aren’t wearing them
