Mandatory No-Mask is such a weird stance, it violates both Health&Safety and Personal Choice/Freedom.

Fun Fact: Roughly half of all cases of food poisoning in the US are due to sick employees not wearing masks.

Sick Workers Connected to 41 Percent of Food Poisoning Outbreaks, CDC Reports

In & out burger - they’re the ones who print bible verses on their fry containers, aren’t they?

If so, that tracks.

This is an absolutely ludicrous policy.

Imagine a company banning their employees from washing their hands or wearing hair nets?

The only possible reason they could have to do this is an attempt to appeal to moronic conservatives.

Do they realize that workers in food factories have been wearing masks for decades?

Me in summer through winter of 2020: "Well, silver lining about COVID is that we all learned how to wear masks once this all blows over."

Conservative family: "Agree!"

Me during the unending apocalypse in summer 2023: "We should wear masks with the air quality so poor [unsaid: due to the now present and undeniable human-caused climate change."

Exact same conservative family: "That sounds like socialism and fascism to me"

I'm not terribly surprised, given as they print bible verses on their packaging. Sad to see another relatively decent Christian business go down the alt-right rabbit hole, but their burgers aren't good enough for me to risk the plague because they can't follow basic safety guidelines.

I had no idea the company was run by such huge assholes. I don’t think I’ve ever been to an In-n-Out, and now I know to avoid them.

This policy is obviously insane and, I hope, legally challengeable. That everyone is acting like this will cause all the customers to die is alao absurd. I live in a pretty liberal area of the country and basically no one is wearing masks anywhere.

I went to in-n-out yesterday and literally no one there had masks, customers or employees.

My wife and I ate in the car as per usual, but I know full well that we're some of the last holdouts.

Just wear a religious face covering then

The people who made this decision when they talk about vaccines: "My body, my choice, you can't tell me what to do!"

Same people, when they talk about masking, abortion or anything else: "Your body, my choice, I can and will tell you what to do!"

My skull would probably crack from the cognitive dissonance if I tried holding these two opinions, but it seems some people have no issues with it at all...

Tell us you're an insane conservative without telling us you're an insane conservative.

Gross.

And this, my friends, is what virtue signalling actually looks like.

Okay, so what if the employee is protecting the customers from themselves? If the employee had a sniffle or whatever I would much prefer they wore a mask.

Er... What?

USA, you all are nuts. Imagine banning masks in a hospital.

At least the lines will be shorter after they've infected enough of their older customer base

It's difficult for things to go in and out with a mask, so it makes sense to me /s.
