Last week I came across a strange situation. I was shopping at a grocery store belonging to a huge store chain and I saw an embarrasing quarrel between a seller and a teenager. The girl who wanted to buy something didn't wear a mask and the cashier told her that she wouldn't serve her if she didn't wear a mask. The girl had a good argument in her defence though. Why should she wear a mask if not all of the store employees had their masks on properly?
I totally agree with her and support her way of thinking. I saw at least two workers who had their masks only covering their mouths and not their noses. What's more, another cashier just two meters from us was wearing the mask the same way other workers were. Are there better in any way than this girl that they may wear the mask in an incorrect way? Wearing a mask this way doesn't make any sense, so why should we wear the mask at all? I come across people wearing their masks only covering their mouths everyday, even at the public transport and I think they do that only to be able to quickly put in on properly when some police officers walk by. Does wearing masks make any sense if many people don't do it properly?
I suppose it doesn't. On the other hand, I do sympathise with these people - not covering your nose makes breathing so much easier and more comfortable.
