Another theory is they were implemented to allow the essential workers to be on a level playing field with the customers; it wasn’t fair to the people that need to work in the grocery stores etc. and wear masks all day, while thousands of people are milling in and out of the store every day
If that theory holds true then it works. Trader Joes employees are MUCH more catty and authoritarian in this environment I noticed. When they bitch at me ab bag protocol infrequently, I’ll ask them a simple question requiring them to use minimal critical thinking skills and their NPC brains short-circuit.
That has nothing to do with it, they want the visual. Humans are visual creatures. You see everyone wearing masks, you're more likely to believe in the terror.
