It’s time we get back to normalcy so unless there is a law asking for masks being worn (airport), I don’t.

I’ve been vaccinated, so this is insane to keep wearing them in airports and the plane.
While I agree it is time to get back to normal, I don’t get to make that call. Read file P20-044R specifically states what I am supposed to do, and I try to do things right. You do you.

then it hit me...I just realized the only people who did care are the Flight Attendants and Gate Agents, and again they are super strict. Is that mask is a millimeter below your nose??? Get your mask on now Sir!!!

people are ready to move on...
Agreed, it seems the power has gone to their heads. I was commuting on a SWA flight recently and they actually got on the PA stating the next offense would have the police waiting when we landed.

The entire thing has gotten out of control and pulling out of the federal mandate can’t happen soon enough.

That is very admirable of you, but at this point it feels like a lost cause to be honest. I've noticed many airport employees and even police not wearing them anymore. People are over it and I seriously doubt they are looking at those of us in positions of authority to figure out how to act. That much is very apparent.

I'm just doing it because the boss says I have to wear one. No more, no less.
