Pandemic Honors
Comment
We all agree that the first responders, medical personnel, law enforcement, and fire departments deserve full honors for keeping us safe and keeping us healthy.Sadly there is no mention of the people that kept the nation running. This set of people always had direct interaction with the public: dealing with male and female Karens, communicating with maskless warriors, negotiating protocols with the "Entitled", appeasing the "Self-Righteous", keeping up with the ever-changing policies, and dealing with the obstinate public that defied any policies. We, as a nation, owe them honors, also.
