this career is a big sick joke, paying student loans, working long hours for ten years was a joke, flying for a regional that demands you spend your entire summer flying to nowhere towns is a big joke, paying $90 a year for an account to apply for a job every year is a big joke, and having to wear a miserable, suffocating, itchy muzzle is a big joke. I fundamentally regret this career, flying is fine, everything else is outrageous and unreasonable.

Looks like we have plenty of nuts on APC that love wearing masks. Plenty of idiots seem like they'd be happy wearing masks forever, it makes them feel good and virtuous to wear it. yOu CaN NeVeR bee tOO SaFe!!!!111

Yes, I am vaccinated and wear the mask when required. Do I like any of this? No. Some people sure seem to.

That is not the feeling of the majority of UPS pilots, I assure you. You get the usual bunch of idiotic blowhoards on social media like this. With that said we follow the rules at work, and UPS makes those rules based on Federal government regulations and recommendations. Be sure to vote in the next federal election and carefully research the positions of the candidates.

Yes, it is is better to work in freight than passenger during this time.

Sound familiar?
As opposed to the mask that deprives you of fresh air and oxygen at sea level? Acts as a cesspool of bacteria, fungi and other various micro pollutants gathered from the bottom of your pocket, bathrooms, dirty recliners, etc.. all while literally doing nothing to prevent infection from covid… ok buddy

Unless you’re walking around in a respirator or changing your N95 every 30-60 minutes, save the theatrics.

Yeah, anyway, you have to wear the Mask Of Tyranny and pretty soon you'll have to get the Gates 5G "vaccine" to work at UPS. I'm not really supposed to talk about it, but you're also required to worship at the altar of Karl Marx and poop on a Bible to pass Initial. I just think you should know what you're getting in to. Woolvoreinz!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are making career decisions based on masking, well, good luck to you sir, you definitely need to be in another line of work.

Well….you’re already wrong with the oxygen deprivation. A N95 mask does a couple of things, reducing the oxygen concentration of the air is not one of them.
Any other Facebook Science bits of wisdom?
