(17,956 posts)turn around and go get it. Had to do that a couple times before it became as automatic as bringing my wallet.

(58,706 posts)I like to take it off when outside walking with no one around, but I have the mask in my hand for when I go in a store or come up on somebody.
I've walked out a time or two without one, but as soon as I remember I turn around and go get it.

(8,990 posts)I will pull my mask below my nose sometimes when I am walking up hauling heavy grocery bags. The mask makes it very hard to breathe if I am already winded. Of course I pull it up if people are around.
I have actually been yelled at to pull it up - by people wearing no mask at all.
Uh, okay.

(5,727 posts)You know, the ones who indignantly point to the mask strapped tightly under their chin and bellow "I am wearing one!"

(21,606 posts)Management of public places are authorized to refuse access to people not wearing a mask. But some places are lax about enforcing the mask rule. Sometimes I encounter an employee on their way to a break who has pulled off the mask.
I live in an apartment building. Most of the residents do not bother with masks when outside their apts. Twice I have had people get angry when I refused to let them in the elevator with me. I motioned them to wait and then quickly pushed the "close door" button and moved on.
