Honestly they can open up any way they like. Inhave no problem with their decisions.
I also have zero problem with people making others aware of what businesses are doing, what policiesthey are enacting. Saves many people a trip. Also, may make others go out of their way to visit the place.
Yeah, I was thinking this could go either way also. The Red Hen restaurant in VA, despite a deluge of bad press from the right, continues to be open and running. So much for boycotting someone out of business.
Sadly, the whole mask facade even in post-lockdown America is still big for business.
For instance, my wife recently went to get her hair done. While the patrons can choose whether or not they wear a mask, the salon workers are all masked up. When my wife asked when they were going to ditch their masks, the owner of the salon candidly told her that the masks are actually a boon for her business. People call asking if the workers are masked, and a negative answer means those people don’t patronize that salon.
On the other hand, by simply telling these people that the salon workers are “abiding by government COVID standards,” suddenly that salon, regardless of the patronage, is a safe place.
Shop owners are choosing to maintain the illusion of safety to maintain or even increase foot traffic. However, asking about vaccination status is downright criminal, esp. here in FL.
