    LOL...

    You know you're an investor when your reaction to the market tanking is wishing you had more cash to buy in with... :rofl::rofl:

    Freaking hall monitors. Was flying from east coast to west coast this weekend (not by choice) and sat a good 50 feet at least away from everyone else while eating what little food was available in the airport. Some “Karen” sits a row away (at least 10ft) from me and then proceeds to shout at me for not wearing a mask in the airport (wasn’t a requirement unless close to others).

    I will probably be in serious trouble if anyone ever yells at me over a mask.

    I hope to handle it that way if it happens. I have just had a hard time doing so in the past with other confrontations.

    Did you ask her how she expected you to eat with a mask on?


    Without going into detail, while I'm not technically in a high risk category, I'm not too far off from it. So even as GA opens up, my wife and I continue to distance and limit any outings around other people - wearing masks when we do. It is nice that mask usage is common enough that it doesn't stand out. (we're also fortunate to have plenty of space to get out without being around others, so it's not like we're staying cooped up)

    What other folks choose to do is their business though. I think it great we're (GA) opening up - lets folks make a living and choose their risks.

    (I still mutter under my breath when folks ignore the one-way-aisle markings at the grocery store - unsure if ignorance or lack of consideration - but I keep it to myself)

    Here is an example from sometime last year. I hope this doesn't sound crazy, but I guess I have a switch that once flipped, is hard to turn off. I saw a guy literally fall out of his wheelchair onto the sidewalk in front of a convenience store. I ran over to help him. He immediately said something like, "Get the f*** away from me!" I explained that I was just trying to help. He proceeded to cuss me out. I had a lot to say after that. We almost fought. I felt bad, but can't really turn it off once it has been turned on.

    I didn’t sell enough shit last week. Being forced to add new money to my account to buy today. And why one of you didn’t insist I sell LUV when I was only down 350, come on people.

    One important issue about this...with H1N1...you were symptomatic within 1 day (up to 3) and you were only contagious when symptomatic...So you knew immediately "Hey, I have the Flu"...With this we have passive transmission from asymptomatic people...Which begs the question, what's the real denominator on # of total cases. None of the reporters at the W.H. are intelligent enough to ask the questions properly. They are so hell bent on bringing down orange man...all they would have to ask is "With the W.H. having laid out guidelines for workers and limiting visitors to the West Wing, and you now having at least 2 positive cases, how do you reconcile the assertion that masks and social distancing work? Were these employees failing to follow regulations and not isolated and reprimanded for doing so or did proper protocol fail to protect the employees of the white house?" follow up "The positive cases were only discovered in asymptomatic people because the W.H. employs preventative testing. These people would not have qualified for a test under the present guidelines. Do you now see the conundrum of limiting testing to only those with symptoms? These employees would have infected an entire workplace before any symptoms in any coworkers were discovered."

    Next time take out your Cell phone like your making a call LOUDLY " Hello, MOM? Oh it is you, I was confused because there's this woman here yelling at me like she's my mother, and I thought 'That can't be my mother because she lives out of state' so I was calling to confirm........A c#nt? No, I wouldn't call her THAT but she is being very obnoxious......Yeah probably off her meds or something....Ok, yeah, I'll let security know she was yelling about 'stopping the flight at all costs' if she doesn't pipe down...Ok Love you, bye"

    This is our joke at work...Hey! Put your mask on when you're eating...
    Guy at work loaded up yesterday and is killing himself today...I talked him down with "You bought for next year, not today..."
