    But why is it in quotes.

    “We will not serve anyone who is wearing a mask” - John Nomask 1918

    Famous quote from John Nomask who died during the spanish flu cos he didn’t wear a mask.

    Actually I’m imagining a disgruntled employee being told by the manager to put it on a sign so quoted the manager saying the sentence

    You should call them, speak to a manager, and ask them what the manager recommends your immunocompromised friend should do as they have been given directions by their doctor to wear a mask while in public and they would like to eat at the store.

    Record the call. Start some shit. This has gotta be an ADA violation.

    Fuck McDonald’s period, send this to corporate to start some internal shit. Send it to local “authorities” to get them some additional attention from health dept or whoever.

    Our alphabetted friends would love to remind us that internal conflict and strife are an excellent way to reduce the capacity of our enemies.

    No need to shed tears if a bootlicker gets more of a taste of leather than they bargained for.

    Today also marks a day where my roommate tests positive and has to take an ambulance for Covid and a guy leans out of his car to fake sneeze at me on my way back from the grocery store. See you all in hell, there ain’t no comin back from this shit.

    At risk of doxxing myself it’s a “progressive” one on the west coast US

    I probably have a good guess because I used to see that shit with franchisee tyrants regularly too.

    These could be called “I LOVE YOU ALL, BUT” laws, demanding pretenses of normalcy when the fucking pandemic hasn’t gone anywhere and is continuing to mutate.

    No, I’m not letting that chuddery go.

      White Bay Area liberals say the most racist shit you’ve ever heard when they think you’re one of them, pandemic denial is just them letting the “acceptable” side of their inner chuddery out

        That’s a big part of why I strove for so long to leave. Shit was horrible.

        When it came to covid, they may have performatively masked for social media points, but when they decided covid was over because they wanted easier treat access, how dare you make them feel bad by continuing to wear a mask.

    No bike orders is an extra ghoulish load of shit atop the pile. Not that I’d go to McDonald’s, but anti-cyclist moves like this are uniquely terrible.

    Cycle commuters exist. I don’t even own a car.

    Ah, the classic conservative franchisee. They probably also see themselves as job creators and essential to the economy.

      It’s probably for security reasons. Keeping change for a $100 in the till requires you have a lot of money in a place it can be easily stolen which fuck corporate and bosses but it does increase the risk of a worker or bystander getting hurt if someone tries to rob the place.
