She said, 'Yes please! I'm not sick. Just trying to avoid it! Those work better?' I explained that N95s seal better against the face & filter better. Her eyes lit up, she took it & said, 'Wow! I didn't know! Thank you so much.' Please do better for workers California Department of Industrial Relations California Department of Public Health

At the Starbucks drive through today, the barista was wearing a floppy blue. I had an extra packaged 3M Aura with me, so after she handed me our order, I said 'I don't know if you're sick or wear your mask all the time like us, but would you like a more protective mask?' /1
