Agree with u/skippyspk
For liability that would be a foolish move on the employer’s part, no?
And shame on them. It’s time to be tolerant of different masking choices.
Excellent masking tips over on r/Masks4All.
I hope this employer changes their policy.

4 way stop when we got there at the same time. Another one is I’m at a red light going left and I’m prepared to wait but the head car going the other way is waving me through, but I can’t see them because of their tint

Not sure about the legality, but that’s a dick move. Who give a fuck if someone wants to wear a mask? I’m anti-mask for myself, but if someone else wants to wear one and make that choice, go for it. Personal choices go both ways.

RI is famous for its corruption and handing down appointments as favors or pay backs. Check out Crimetown podcast season 1. Basically the mafia went white collar over here.

I would recommend crossposting this to r/LegalAdvice.

A lawyer would have to give a definitive answer.

It’s definitely possible. I heard a loud commercial jet last week, I don’t normally hear that in the winter.

It might not provide a ton of units, but I'll take any more supply provided in a severe housing shortage.

Maybe. I know 56th troop command and the 143rd INF jump into Big River on a regular basis.

I would LOVE a public workspace sort of thing but unless it’s paid and profitable it won’t be maintained.

You’re about 10 years too late on the rave scene ideas but go off.

Sounds like something I’d respond with depending on the tone of the other person.

So I’m a Florida transplant to Rhode Island and my take is Rhode Island is actually Hobbiton. Rhode Islander, aka hobbits, just want to be left to their simple pleasures and don’t like outsiders mucking up their pleasures. But overall once they realize you’re not their to cause them harm or ruin their peaceful lives they bring you in with open arms and are incredibly friendly.

There should be no need to signal each other just follow the rules. Being polite and not going when you have the right of way is more dangerous driving.

Also, if you expect things from strangers because you did the bare minimum that might make you the entitled one in a weird way? It shouldn’t be transactional.

If you’re wandering through your life expecting something out of strangers then you’re going to be expecting for a long time.

Especially since most people who show up at work in a mask these days are SICK to some degree and attempting not to pass their germs to their coworkers and clients/customers. It's literally doing the employer a favor by both being present and not getting people sick. I'm so tired of the stupidity.
