Semi infamous restaurant here.

Staff wore lanyards with "exemptions". Those "exemptions" have no legal bearing.

Once the rules got more strict they kept doing it.



$20k ($14-15k usd approx) fine handed out.

A 1st degree FBF just caught covid. Not my first one. And I suspect not my last with Omicron around.

FBF? Sorry, what’s that?

And I’m sorry to hear anyone caught it. Just talked to a friend who had recently lost his aunt to complications with Covid.

One more time with feeling. This blows.

“Facebook Friend”, I’d guess.

Committed a faux pas tonight. Phone was almost flat so put it on the charger and went out.

"Vaccine passport please" no problem aw crap.

Guess where the phone was. That's alright I had a physical copy. Conveniently located in my phone case.

Aw crap X2.

Lesson learnt my wife had a copy on her phone and they accepted that.



Oops. Said VP.

No vaccine pass no yum yum.



Hot pot Guinness beef pie.

Would destroy that plate!

In other news…got my 2nd Shingrix shot yesterday. Only a little site soreness, not even worth taking a pill over.

I've been flat out tempted a couple times when seeing people doing the no-mask thing to look at them and go "Unless you have a very specific set of medical things, you're either stupid or you're selfish. Which is it?" Which would probably have gotten me in a fistfight or worse, but damn wasn't I tempted...

Earlier this year, I was in the grocery store checkout when a man came up to the front of the store asking for management because "There was an anti-masker situation" and he didn't want to handle it because he was afraid it would devolve into a fistfight. The store, at the time, had a mask policy (you had to wear one to shop at the store) and a couple of jerks apparently took theirs off once they thought no employees were monitoring them. Somebody called them out and things got heated (I could hear the yelling from the front of the store).

Downside of mandates. Beats me if they expect low paid retail peons to enforce it. You can call the cops but until they get there.....

At the grocery store, a guy walked in without a mask and the clerks refused him service until he put a mask on. He threatened to just take his groceries without paying, since nobody would ring him up, but they assured him he would be spending the night in jail for shoplifting if he did. He threw a cussing fit and thoroughly embarrassed himself in front of everyone, then left.

Some people, I swear.
