Title: FAO the a workers
Post by: The Jester of Wibbly on March 31, 2020, 10:19:11 am
Seen a couple of window cleaners out while working myself.  They had been wearing a facemask.   I use gloves and sanitiser gel.   

Do any of you use facemasks?

Nope, it would be silly going out if you're going to get close enough to the public to need a face mask.

I think there’s a few about but they wear three pointed hats too.

So you can control the public too?
What if you get one of those now famed lockdown walk ups that approach you when you're working because their window cleaner is a week late?
Do you toss your pole on the floor (ooh err) and back away shouting 'get back, get back'?

Again, contradictory advise out there about masks. Heard a doctor giving her personal advise on the radio and she was against them as they move about which encourages you to touch your face which is a good way of catching the virus. Don't wear one and leave your face alone was her advise to the general public.

Its your cleaning method that's the problem Griff.

I can't remember how to clean a window, Dryo.

Come on, I've set you some homeschooling questions; why don't you answer them?
How do you prevent the public getting within two metres of you when you're out in public?
Or are you one that only cleans windows in the woods?

It's easy, and even easier when there's hardly anyone about.

You've not been out of your house yet have you? ;D

You take measures Griff, for instance if there are kids playing in the back garden you don't just barge in, similar if you think the house is occupied then you make it known that you are there and that they need to keep their distance and so forth.
But what your stupidity fails to grasp is that these measures aren't to stop you or others from getting this virus, if they where the majority of the population wouldn't still be working, they are to slow it down, we are all going to get it a some point, all we can do is try not to all get it on the same day.

No, not this week.
I'm self isolating; you're supposed to do that in your own house.
It might be easy but tell how you do it or how you'd do it if it happened.

We've achieved that.

You can catch it through the mouth, nose and eyes!

So its a little pointless unless your covering the entire face really.
I think its the same mentality of using vision in your water.  Vision adds bubbles so in theirs and the customers eyes, your are cleaning!
If i wear a mask, i am safe and the customers will let me work  ;D

No face mask , why would anyone want to get hysterical  if your not going near anyone.
I’ve seen people walking across fields or driving on their own with a face mask on!! Perhaps they wear them in their gardens too? I’m not saying the threat isn’t real but that is madness

Yes, stop being a self righteous buffoon and realise that its not hard for an experienced shiner to work away without coming into contact with others, most of my customers are still out working and the ones who aren't seem to have enough sense to keep out of my way.

So only experienced shiners- I love that word- should be out working? How are you going to measure this experience?

I can believe that.

Experience as in knowing your round, for instance I tend to know which of my property's will have people at home and which wont, obviously its not an exact science or essential but it all helps.
Now stop making silly assumptions, just because you haven't a clue doesn't mean the rest of us are the same, experienced or other.

You tend to know? Is it enough to tend to know? We like science, too, Dryo.
If you don't think that it's essential to be socially distant then you should stay at home.
Stay home.

I hope you're not going to evict them if they fall into arrears with their rents.
