My girlfriend and I walked in without a mask. The hostess sat us, near the front, inside the 50% capacity bar. There were 15 people in there not wearing masks because they had drinks. The waiter came over to take our order. We gave him our order for 2 beers and he asked for my girlfriend's ID. As she handed him the ID he also said we needed to wear a mask. We got up and immediately left. I find it ridiculous and insulting we needed to wear a mask for him to walk to the bar and back when nobody else was wearing one. I don't need to go to the bar. I went there to have a nice evening, and if they will pull that crap, I will not enjoy it so we left. I can find another place thay will not say anything.

The waiter was just following orders. Your beef was with the owner. But you are free to vote with your wallet, though why anyone wants to go out these days and try and have a life is beyond me. I am boycotting everything including cutting my own hair for a fucking year so I dont have to deal with these mask mandates.

Staying home, saving my money, not contributing to the Biden economy, holding the line and waiting for Trump to win. It is exhausting being true to principle. I am 72 and dont want to croak while this country is in such a mess...I may be needed.

WHY? Are boomers also incapable of getting an ID? Good grief. 71 and been here longer than you!

Only if you’re black; Biden says you don’t know how to use the Internet and are too dumb to learn.

Jokes aside, I have a hard time getting my younger parents to copy photos from an iPhone or stop factory resetting the WiFi when it’s “slow”. Everyone’s tech skills are different. Just exceeds expectations.
