But don’t pretend to ask a question, then when you get a reply, start arguing with employers in the past pre-COVID. You ask what was common, you were told the answer to your question, and you start arguing. Be honest. You weren’t actually asking a question, you wanted to make a statement.

You’re commenting to people how insane it is as if they have any control. Your question was if it is common then you reply like everyone telling you obviously that it was common “omg crazy!!”

Why are you asking this question and then arguing with people about how terrible the situation was before covid? Do you have a different question you were actually trying to ask? Remote work and hybrid work wasn’t a common thing in the Boston area. Or anywhere. That’s why people talk about “rush hour” and “beating traffic.”

Probably owned by Fairfield Realty. They have tons of cheap studios in Back Bay but they’re kind of slummy and breaking the law (for example, you leave trash out in the hallways on trash day, they don’t provide bins outside). They must not want to deal with people reporting them.

If people don’t want to mask, I wish they’d at least cover their disgusting mouths when coughing then disinfect hands after and teach their children to do the same. Seems like everyone is sick right now and there is almost zero interest in trying to prevent spread.
