Moved to Florida from California and there is definitely culture shock when it comes to masks. When I left nobody was really wearing masks in stores/restaurants, but a good chunk of workers still wore masks despite it not being mandatory. Got a job at a grocery store doing cashier work, and I decided to mask up once I noticed like 50% of customers are old and/or disabled. Almost every night someone asks why I wear it and try to push the "its okay you're free" angle. If not I can feel silent judgment or some comment on vaccines and/or Biden. I've been lucky a couple days in a row I've had reasonable conversations about it with people a bit more neutral on the subject. I am one of only like 3 cashiers who wear a mask anyways so I can understand the natural curiosity.

The worst part is there's no point educating any of the people who are just weird about it. I just nod my head and disengage, here's your fucking receipt.
