I still wear cloth masks at work and most other public places for a combination of practical and personal reasons;
- I come into contact with literally thousands of people a day at work and, let’s face it, the general public is gross
- I don’t have to force a smile when interacting with people and nobody can complain that I’m not smiling
- Wearing a mask hides the seborrheic dermatitis I often get on my lower face and hides the fact that I’m missing teeth
- It’s not as blatantly obvious if I go a day or two without shaving
- I now have a huge collection of several dozen masks with different faces on them (Darth Vader, Boba Fett, Guy Fawkes, Batman, the Joker, Shrek, my own face, etc.) and I’ve got a reputation as “the funny mask guy” at work that I’ve got to maintain
