    Having had the “benefit” of decades of experience in the retail industry, I assure anyone reading who hasn’t, that most of us would be very happy to wear gloves all of the time, regardless of any given reason. People are fucking gross. And we don’t have health insurance. So, no thank you for your conjunctivitis and Covid, but I’d really rather not. Thanks for shopping at [Retail Outlet]! Please, come back and be rude to us again!

      Gloves or not, you still can’t touch yourself, it only saves washing your hands if you can’t. If you are near a sink, wearing gloves is just weird or for the theatre of people who think it makes a difference.

      Not many diseases are spread by actual skin contact, still need to pick your nose and a glove doesn’t change anything.

          You should be washing your hands MUCH more frequently than “every couple” hours, that’s disgusting.

          You’re the dirty one that people should be avoiding. Bet you don’t wash after your smoke break do you?
