I think most ubers used to just leave their mask on all day. but who knows.
I suppose that might be an Uber policy. But itās still stupid.

It canāt be an Uber policy to keep your mask on all day. How would they know if you did or didnāt? Maybe they were about to pick someone up.
They had that policy where I work. Iām on a midnight shift where I could see 3-5 cars in a 4 hour period. Do you think I have my mask on the entire time? Itās because of Covid I went to the midnight shift. No freaking way Iām wearing that mask the entire shift.

I saw this as it was happening.
The truth is finally being recognized. It was just like the flu after all.
āFrom the available evidence, it is difficult to identify the specific responses to the pandemic that led to better outcomes,ā they write. āCountries clearly responded to the challenges in very different ways, from essentially no school closures (Sweden) to multiple years of closures (Uganda and Indonesia). Yet, simple statistics such as the length of school closures or overall health policies cannot explain much of the variance in outcomes.ā
Lockdowns, mask mandates, vaccine passportsā¦none of it mattered, nor does it explain the variance in outcomes between countries. Why? The obvious answer is that none of these policies had the slightest chance of preventing transmission of a highly infectious respiratory virus.
Instead, the likely explanation for variance in outcomes comes down to differences in accounting for Covid cases and deaths, underlying health and age demographics, or pre-existing immunity from exposure to similar coronaviruses, which was almost certainly the reason why countries in Asia performed much better than Western countries during the early part of the pandemic, but was conveniently ignored in favor of āexpertsā maintaining the wishful thinking that āmask cultureā was responsible.

The economic numbers are staggering.
Just look at the continued loss of work community as people work from home on computers and pretend they get more done. They do not.
Working from home is a productivity loss also. Traffic hasnāt decreased either. People at home can drive here there and anywhere any time they want and then tell the boss they are more productive while doing a half assed impersonal job.

Youāre probably spot on about the traffic. Iām a toll collector after all. Iām seeing more traffic post pandemic. Iām getting almost double the vehicles in the winter. People on the day and afternoon shift are getting 400-600 tickets. Sometimes more. We havenāt seen that since 2010.

Makes sense when you commute the vehicle stays put during the work day.
I experience this odd anomaly where the building I work in is only 60% occupied and yet the commute traffic is identical to pre-coronavirus levels.
Makes perfect sense. Weekends always saw more traffic than during the week. Yet weekends are when most people are off. Now weekend traffic is starting to bleed into the weekdays.
