Do you wear masks 8 hours a day for work? 'Cause I'm sure all the people who do might beg to differ.

Plus masks interfere with communication. Faces are important.

My kids wear masks all day long and school. They do not love it, but they complain way less than some people do about wearing one for 20 minutes in a grocery store.

I wore an N95 on a series of flights to Europe over the summer. It was not the most pleasant thing, but I was ok with it. Doctors and nurses regularly work 8/10/12 hours while masked up.
