I had to wear a mask twice though. Once when I had to go into a hospital. As soon as I walked past the Nazi gatekeeper I took it off. Another at the DMV. Wore it less than five minutes there as I knew I wouldn't get service. I ignore all mask signs and make them try to enforce it. The few times I obliged it was after I was given one. I never have one on my possession. The bigger the sign the more I ignore it. I have gotten thrown out of one store and will not go back. (The owner wasn't rude at all just seemed overly fearful. Ended up being a good thing as I ended up finding a better deal online. )
I was asked twice at the local Walmart. I told the one employee that I didn't have one and kept walking. The second time the more serious looking security guard asked and I plead medical exemption. Most "enforcers" look at me and look the other way. There was one time that some chick behind the cake counter asked why I didn't have one. I guess she has very little opportunities to exert some power and influence in her life. I just stared her down and silently dared her to make it an issue. Thankfully she backed down.
It is getting better though. There were several times when I was the ONLY ONE in the store without one. Now thankfully it's gone up to about 30 percent.
Keep up the good fight! Its unnerving at times but I just take a deep breath and keep it moving. Sometimes you just have to be a leader when all the lemmings are jumping over a cliff.
All the time. I rarely am challenged.

Sadly, where i live, I am almost always the only one not wearing a mask.
