A friend of mine was a census taker. Here's an exchange he had at someone's door:
"You have no right to be doing this."
"It's actually required by the Constitution, sir."
"Which amendment?"
"No amendment, it's in the articles of the Constitution."
"If it's not an amendment, it's not in the constitution." <closes door>.
As for masks, I'm not sure if my wearing a mask prevents ME from getting sick, but I'm certain that OTHER PEOPLE wearing a mask helps prevent ME from getting sick, which is why I want to punch people in the exposed target of a nose when they walk around places where masks are required with the mask pulled down not covering their nose at all.
BTW, as for my kitchen counter issue, it was actually resolved a few weeks ago. I did contact the manufacture, and they worked with the fabricator and retailer (after several calls by me...they were just some of the people who spurred the 'call back when you say you will' rant.) I won't bother with the details, but I was ultimately satisfied with the outcome and it was less bother than court. I just had to rant about that woman's warranty comment.
(and the suitability of counter top materials was almost part of my cook top rant...don't put anything hot or cold on the counter....geesh...sure why would there be anything hot or cold in a FREAKING KITCHEN?!?!
Next time I'm getting stainless steel.)
