Words from a bartender...

Read this today:

12K yesterday in Indiana.
The highest number ever.

No one cares.

Guy sitting at the bar yesterday, no mask, talking on the phone, waiting on his to go order and having a beer.
His wife, and 2 of his 5 kids, are at home, with Covid, and he 'just had to get out of the house'.

3 weeks ago, guy in his car says "sorry I couldn't come in and pick up my order, I have Covid"

Every single day I work, an employee is "sick" and not allowed to leave, then calls off the next day with a positive test.
One server, yeah, server, the person who touches your plate, your credit card, comes to your table.........was sick for 5 days, worked every day, because they can't afford to take the time off. The boss knew he was sick.....didn't care. We're short staffed.

No. One. Cares.
No one.

Stopped at a restaurant to pick up takeout for dinner the other night. It wasn’t finished yet, so I went into the bar to have a drink while I waited. There were 8 tables with customers and 3 at the bar. They had two employees out front. One guy working as host and bartender, one taking care of the tables. 12 people were out sick.

It took Wuhan a few tries to get the mutation that would truly shut down the west's economies.

The guy who works in a bar only sees people who are going to bars so it’s not that surprising that he thinks nobody cares. It’s kind of a form of survivorship bias. There’s plenty of people not going to bars like the selfish twat with the wife and kids at home with Covid.

Bartender. Not "putz."

In Yiddish...
Putz. A stupid fellow, a fool, a jerk; also a slang term for the penis.

why the definite article? shouldn't it be "slang term for a penis"

in yiddish the definite article would be der putz
but i think a putz would be more correct, indefinite, as it refers to any penis, not a particular one

indefinite article defintion: either of the articles a or an used to show that the following noun refers to any person or thing of the kind named
