Do you shower and/or wash your hair after taking a bus?

I shower and wash my hair daily.

My kid did a science fair project where he swabbed various surfaces in public, and the ones from the metro escalator handrails and metro rail bars in the cars grew some of the gnarliest looking cultures. The petri dish that grew the fewest cultures was the toilet seat of the men's room of a Starbucks.

How about after getting to work in the AM? Why after your PM commute but not your AM commute?

When I did this it was the school pay phone receiver That said, I do wash my hands but do not take a shower.

Agreed.

Why not just ignore?

It’s the stupidest question I’ve ever seen. NP.

Oh I dunno, the health anxiety posters come up with some doozies...

Yes, I take the bus to work then strip down in the women's restroom, scrub my entire body with clorox wipes, wash my hair in the public sink, redress and go to work.

(But, seriously, I've taken public transit throughout covid, I touch all the surfaces, have never gotten covid and rarely get sick.)

Only in my outdoor Covid shower/shanty adjacent to my front door.

Hmmm, I mean I shower eventually. In the evening as normal?

[Anonymous]

OP. You should just stay home. You’re too anxious for the real world.

[Anonymous]

YES of course.

[Anonymous]

I shower at night, but not because I might have been on the same bus as a homeless person. That's really offensive, OP.

If you're the type to ride the bus I'm pretty sure your bar is low for the ice factor

I kind of know what you mean- I like to shower after a long distance bus while traveling but not after taking a metro bus a few miles.

You seemingly have anxiety about posters.
