[quote=Anonymous]I invested a lot of time and money to get a masters degree in education. It is my second career, and I can’t return to my first career without taking a huge pay hit. Unfortunately, I fell ill with Covid in March 2020. We now know that several families at my school were sick at the time. That illness left me vulnerable to infection and with long Covid. If I can’t mask, I can’t safely teach. Though I am now partially disabled, I still want and need to be a productive professional.

My colleagues mask for various reasons. One is pregnant but has not shared that news at work. Another is a diabetic. Their health conditions and reasonable accommodations are not anyone else’s business.

Several times I’ve read on this forum that “No one is going to mask to protect the immune compromised. We’re done with masking and never going back.” Then someone else, or perhaps the same person, will berate people who *do* mask as OCD and crazy. Some of us are still vulnerable in the Covid era. I’m not sorry that reality is inconvenient for entitled sociopaths. I sincerely hope that some of you do take this issue to your principals so that the administrators can look you in the eye and tell you how absurdly unreasonable you are.
