Hmmm. Not sure I understand the need for drivers to wear masks.... they are in their vehicle mostly, by themselves. When I get a delivery, the package changes hands at two arms' lengths, and isn't that about how far we are supposed to stay apart? Two arms' lengths? Or am I missing something?

I agree. They're pretty safe doing deliveries so as long as they're not touching packages, then touching their face, there's really no reason for them to have to wear them (I'd assume they can if they want though). And most packages simply get left at the porch here, don't usually need to have face to face contact for it.

Because if they sneeze, cough or breathe, and are infected, droplets with virus in them. It goes everywhere and can get on any mail.

Which is why I've been leaving the mail in the box a couple of days, or leaving packages in the garage a few days (along with non perishable grocery items). I find it an easier way of dealing with possible contamination that doesn't require me to be bleaching food wrappers or anything ridiculous like that.

Dont believe that fedex drivers care about anything. Fedex sucks. If someplace uses fedex I find another business to buy from if I can.

I ordered some worms for composting last week and they got here today so I opened the bag to add water then got distracted by the chickens outside and left the open bag on the counter, stupidly on its side too, thinking they wouldn’t possibly go anywhere, and I come back and a bunch had crawled out of the bag and landed on the floor and a few on the counter hahaha

They were crazy too. Wiggling all over the place and super active.

Well, at least I can say they are healthy and active.

I think I got them all thankfully though. Hopefully. Lmao

They were mostly in one spot.

I was picking them up with paper towels cause I was too grossed out to touch them.

I thought they’d be like half dead and stay put but I guess not.

I have heard of "Snakes On A Plane" but gezz!

Gee I wonder what would happen if the meat packing plant workers went out too! If anyone has a reason to they do.

Most meat plants are closing because they don't have enough workers

Lots of people and places make those sorts of assumptions. We have Internet, but no TV at my house. No Netflix. No Cable, No Disney or History Channel. I have never seen Tiger King or Game of Thrones. If it's not in our extensive movie collection or available online ... we don't watch it. Until fairly recently, our Internet was super-slow dial-up, so we didn't have online gaming, either. And y'know what? I DON'T MISS ANY OF IT! My kids are rather proud that they've grown up outside and not in front of a television. It's pretty darned cool!

hey,
But, but ,but.. My chickens need to watch their Animal Planet shows! They have a TV in the coop,

I think you ended up in the neighbors yard! My spot is flat! I don't even need to sink one single post.

I did see kiddie pools for $7 today. I need to empty the truck to go get one or two.

Now you tell me!

Oh, and those two free kiddie pools at the neighbors? They are yours. Good luck though getting them to hand them over after the demo I shared with them on 101 uses for a kiddie pool.
