There are still so many decisions to make every day even at this stage in the pandemic.
I had a meeting the other day. I was masked walking in but knew the colleague I was meeting was also fully vaccinated. Mask on? Mask off?
Hug? Shake hands? Fist bump? Wave?
Suggest a Zoom or a phone call instead -- because people are Zoomed out?
Should we have coffee together – inside or outside?
Would you change seats when you realize the person sitting next to you on the LIRR is asleep with his mask under his chin? [This one happened the other day and hint, I moved.]
I admit that sometimes it is all still a little overwhelming. I am very excited about the prospects of safe in-person get togethers, but will a fist bump suffice when we say hello?
