So angry right now. My eldest has worked at Chick Fil-A for a year, through every kind of weather she's stood outside wearing a mask, all day, and now that the mandate is gone in the state, and it's up to each employer, her franchise manager is making them wear masks outdoors 1/
...unless they prove they're vaccinated. I kept telling her to ask when that was ending, she was "afraid" if angering her boss, so I called corporate to ask about their policy. They said it is NOT their policy that employees wear them outdoors anymore, only to have them 2/
in case a customer asks them to put on on (what asshole would do that?!). So I tell my kid the good news. What does she do? Nothing. She does nothing. She's so terrified of getting in trouble, she wore the mask all day again! She says "they would have told me." 3/
I tell her not necessarily. Maybe they didn't get the memo from Corp, maybe they're going rogue mask Nazi because it's a franchise. Maybe she missed the email about the change, and she said she doesn't want to start a fight with her managers, until 4/
someone tells her she can take it off. I have failed my daughter. How did this happen? How did it take only one year of this lunacy to turn my child into a bleating sheep! They have help wanted signs everywhere, she has leverage, she could leave! She won't say a word. 5/
She went from complaining about it daily to angry at ME for suggesting she just not wear it and see what happens. I can't even protect my own kids from the cult of conformity out there. I'm so angry I can't even breathe. /end
Please everyone understand I'm not angry at her. She's a kid. I'm angry at the manipulators in her midst who are taking advantage of her youth and eagerness to please to pressure her to do something that isn't good for her; these are the people teaching kids conformity is good.
