Did you stop shaking hands for the flu season last year?

Overthinking this shite. Just stick your damn hand out. If they don't shake it move on.

One pandemic isn't going to change a custom that's been around for hundreds of years.

I have never stopped working during this scamdemic and encounter numerous strangers and acquantances on a daily basis. Some have objected to my offering of shaking hands and wanted to fist or elbow bump, but I tell them it is ok. If they have concerns about shaking but think a fist bump is completely fine in light of their concerns, I take a mental note that I am dealing with a moron for future use.


what an ignorant frick stick.....

See, I am actually a big strong man as well as an executive......I am setting a smart example for my boys as I expect them to be successful executives one day as well.

But, you be you and us ladies will continue on our merry ways.

Ignorance is thinking there’s a pandemic killing millions of people right now, and that a quarantine order is for people who show no symptoms/aren’t sick.

3 healthy people I know have died from COVID. Textbook symptoms to ICU to death.....no BS categorizing/labeling COVID as so many chimps allege.

I have never even met a single person who died from the flu......

Maybe because the WORLD was being proactive.

Funny how the planet got together to sabatoge the 2020 US elections.

This time, I am actually telling the God's honest truth.

Healthy?

Doubt it. You don’t know what most likely caused their death. You don’t know their medical history.

I’m sorry they passed, though.

What we should be doing is not shaking hands and hugging each other. But that's not what's happening. People have reverted to embracing and shaking hands. Maybe it won't matter, but it's cheap and easy to skip that for a while until we see what the fallout is.

There’s research that has proven fist bumps have been shown to spread twice the amount of germs as shaking hands.
