What masks are you guys and gals wearing? I imagine a fair number us are rocking these damn things to work for a while. Let's see them. What are you sporting and what are your likes/dislikes about your new face accessory?

I ordered several types weeks ago but only 2 have arrived so far. Biggest complaint, my glasses are constantly fogging up which requires me to readjust every few minutes, thus resulting in needless face touchery.

Currently wearing this guy. Not a fan of it, just ordered these. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

First, sir I would like to complement you on your haircut.

Second, this is what we have been provided. Funny thing when I sent the first batch to my team in PA a few weeks back they asked if we made them ourselves. Basically t-shirt material stamped with slits for the ears. Not sure how much good they really do honestly but we are supposed to wear when we are moving in the building.

They just mandated that we have to wear them at work. It looks like I need a waxing... I did spruce it up a little.

I have one of those fishing neck gaiter things coming in the mail tonight, I am hoping it fits better than this mask.

I never wore one until today, my company made it mandatory.

Turkish Pickle · 05-06-2020, 04:52 PM

Good thread - keeping an eye out here. My state made it mandatory a few days ago and so far Circle K gave me death stares buying snacks and almost had to pull a Karen last night trying to grab dinner at Taco Bell.

Plus starting work soon and I'm 95% sure they're going to make me wear one

Hawkeye · 05-06-2020, 04:55 PM

My work stated we have to wear one when we start going back to the office, we have been remote for a few months now but they are going to start reintegrating. I won't be wearing a full face shield unless it is to make a point.

Thank you kindly. Mother nature decided this was the haircut for me, unless I want to go around looking like Seth Green from Gold Member.

Our facility provided us with something similar which is why I ordered masks in advance. I feel like the masks they provided are garbage. I'm with you on the effectiveness of said masks, but if it's mandatory. For what they pay me, I'd wear a gorilla costume to work every day if needed.

Rmtt · 05-06-2020, 05:43 PM

We got N-95's......but that is what we stock at work being in the industry we are in.

Turkish Pickle · 05-06-2020, 05:51 PM

I ordered the ones you got Now_Rudi, I got the three pack - it's being delivered by June!!!!!

Kinda wish they had orange ones in three packs too I'm going to look like Bane all summer.

So I ordered a few off Etsy hopefully they'll be here soon. Until then I should probably get used to the death stares

The cycling masks with the exhale valves are defeating half the purpose. If you have the virus and cough or sneeze, they do nothing to stop the water droplets. Those valves just open up and let it all out. Masks serve two purposes, to reduce outgoing water droplets in the event you sneeze or cough, and to reduce incoming ones in the event you walk through a cloud of droplets. Non-N95 masks won't come near the effectiveness of N95s, but they're better than nothing. The cycling masks only perform one of the intended purposes. Those masks are more for cyclists who suffer from allergies.

I wish I still had my Racal PAPR (Powered Air Purifying Respirator) from my asbestos abatement days. Now that'd freak some people out.

ToddBlack88 · 05-07-2020, 12:02 AM

I think I am going to rock one of these to be safe

Danlnyc88 · 05-07-2020, 01:25 AM

I bought about 1000 KN95 masks from a friend. Cant leave home without one
