If the store has a sign that says “mask required,” I wear a mask, because I’m not an entitled scab who thinks he can do as he pleases in a private business

This is a good general rule of thumb. But what about the businesses that have a sign just to be safe from government overreach? The owners most likely don’t give a shite either way or another if you wear a mask

This. I've been telling you all for a year now that it's this but no one seems to be listening. Not even my own friends and family members that are around me.

I'm not exaggerating when I say this. I have not worn a mask one time to this entire thing and I live just outside of New Orleans. All the big box stores have the signs out there strictly to cover their arse. I've been in all of them and none of them have ever told me anything about not wearing a mask. Even liberal arse Whole Foods based in Austin Texas let you come in and take a little 5 question survey and they take a forehead temperature and you're on your way into the store without a mask.

The emergency order in Louisiana has exemptions for people with medical conditions. Do you think these corporations want to be liable for not having exemptions? Do you think they're going to spend the time to shake down every customer without a mask to determine if they have a medical condition that warrants being exempted?

They hope that everybody just puts a mask on so they don't have to deal with all the Karen's complaining and just avoid the conflict but they're certainly not going to harass you or kick you out the store for not wearing one and they'd much rather have your money and patronship then to piss you off and not only lose the revenue in the moment but potentially a future customer for the rest of your natural life. Now with that said, that doesn't mean you're not going to run into that one ignorant blue hair employee who might frick with you but they generally don't have those types employed in my area. Get in where you fit in.
