Front Line worker

My friend Teresa, works at a gas station kiosk, where she deals with money and lottery tickets and I think she still sells tobacco products.  She has that little window which she's holding up with her hand, and it comes down and shields her face most of the time...but she doesn't wear a mask to work. She does use hand sanitizer frequently though.

Teresa also has to go clean/sanitize the keypads and handles on the 8 gas pumps several times a day.  I worry about her, and usually will check on how she's doing by texting her every day. If I don't, she will check on me!

Today's quote: (Thanks to fellow blogger, Sabine (Here).

Historically, pandemics have forced humans to break with the past and imagine their world anew. This one is no different. It is a portal, a gateway between one world and the next. We can choose to walk through it, dragging the carcasses of our prejudice and hatred, our avarice, our data banks and dead ideas, our dead rivers and smoky skies behind us. Or we can walk through lightly, with little luggage, ready to imagine another world. And ready to fight for it.  - Arundhati Roy.
