I wonder about the influence of employment, as well. If you're at risk every work day, I could well imagine it seeming pointless to start being careful the rest of the time, and maybe just too cognitively dissonant to consider.
I remember in 2020, someone I knew was working at Waterstones, and they were forbidden to mask up at work - even though 2020 was before the whole "covid is over" thing.
I also remember reading about someone - maybe a nurse? that _kind_ of job, anyway - who'd started wearing a fitted mask while the default in their workplace was baggy blues, and iirc was formally rebuked. It wasn't allowed.
If for whatever reason you're unable to hold down a typical job, you might not have much cash for _getting_ things like masks, but you're also not under that same kind of economic pressure to put yourself at risk.

It's been an awesome day so far. Just as one client has signed off, another is (hopefully) about to go live!

HMU if I can help out!

The biggest misnomer in cooperate speech is probably saying 'letting people go' like it's a bloody favour, when you just fire them

I picked cherries 🍒 in Ontario when I was a kid (14?). I was visiting family in Niagara and it was a summer job. I did it a few days: hard work up on a ladder trying to pick as fast as you can without hurting the cherries or yourself. It was hot. The experienced mostly Jamaican workers could do it way faster than me. I lasted just a few days before the owner politely told me I should find other work. 😆
I appreciate the people who work the fields for us to have fresh fruit on the table.

"Hi Andy, Faceb**k is looking for a Content Design Manager"
Yeah, well that's Faceb**k's problem. There's no way I would work for them!

Ok, just a smol rant... Every time theres a new job platform, it's pretty neccessary to upload a whole portfolio again. And once all the images, and text are uploaded, the tags need to be accurate so they appear in site-searches correctly.
Not only that, but it then needs to be maintained. So, any changes or new projects to add... need to be done on every platform.
Am I wrong in thinking this is so incredibly tedious? lol
