Have you been to one of these stations in Oregon, especially anywhere rural (which is most of the state)? I can guarantee you these folks will not want to wear any kind of “mask.”
- tejtm 3y agoand there is rub, or at least part of it. If you got gas at one of those stations it is because it was open. being open cost an employee even when no one show up which in a sparsely populated area is usually. The only rational response is to limit hours. now you have a condition where people over a wide area are being blocked from being able to buy gas when ever they want like the people in the city who are preventing them just take for granted. These paper cuts accumulate add in some divisive propaganda and here we are. source: I'm one of those city folk now.
- pessimizer 3y agoJust because you're a covid truther doesn't mean that you will refuse to wear protective gear in general. I'd be willing to bet that most of the people in the US at this very moment who are wearing protective gear for their jobs are covid truthers to some extent, because anti-maskers are pretty numerous among people who work with their hands and backs.

- azinman2 3y agoI’d wager that it’s about doing something different than has been done with clear risk. No one wears respirators pumping gas, and if the gov starts mandating it I don’t think it’s a huge leap to assume push back.
