It’s 2026 and I still wear a mask when I’m out. I don’t know why people act like COVID is gone and somehow long COVID isn’t a thing anymore. It’s still mutating, and endemic now, and there are a ton of health consequences to catching it that may not be immediately obvious, including organ damage.
That's true, but for good or ill, it's uncommon to see both a customer and an employee wearing masks nowadays.

Not even to use your employee discount?
At a place I worked I wasn't allowed to use coupons but usually employee discount was more. But we also made sneak accounts for our moms so when customers didn't use their phone number to get points we'd use our sneak account to accumulate a ton of points
I know a couple of people who got into some trouble for getting free points like that. Not saying every company is looking for it, but I know some are and not all the companies they worked at where huge mega corps. Just be careful out there people.
It's be pretty easy to see the patterns if they're looking
Reward Points are there to keep you Loyal, not to give you free things

This comic was honestly mental healthcare during quarantine when I was working retail. This brings me back.
