Likewise, I believe I have an obligation to others to mask if I am not confident that be more six feet away from everyone I encounter. If others choose to not mask, my expectation is that they will not come within six feet of me. I wonder how clear is to other Villagers.

This afternoon I was at ACE Hardware and not one employee was masked. I needed help finding an item and I was helped by an ACE employee, who stood within three feet of me. I asked the store if they tested temperatures of employees before they enter the work place and they do not. The adjectives that come to mind for the management of ACE Hardware are for not mitigating risk to shoppers are stupid, ignorant, arrogant, and/or insolent. I won’t be going back to any ACE Hardware store for some time.

I have found that when I wear a mask people think they can stand really close to me. NOOOOO! Droplets from speaking go a long way and can get into eyes easily. Stay away, masked or not please!
