I mean, it looks silly out of context, but these signs go up at visitor entrances asking you to please not make sick people sicker with new disease and put workers at even more risk.

My favorite thing during peak covid was when you needed to do a test, so they put you in a waiting room full of other people who probably have covid just to make sure you're leaving with it

My hermit lifestyle worked out really well for me during the pandemic.

Same. Because I’d given up driving and switched to rideshare, I was incredibly isolated and unable to go anywhere that I couldn’t walk. I made it almost three years before I got it.

Is putting 'visitors' on a sign like this a good idea when the internet loves to take things out of context for laughs?

Probably something a sign making company should keep in mind, but I'm glad they don't.

Yeah, the reality is nobody gives a single f about what's going on in the internet, in the real world.

That's why they were all surprised when Donald Trump won 2016. They didn't understand that the 4chan president was using 21st century tactics that old fashioned politicians couldn't compete with.
