Stay safe here. The owner wouldn't let me send a very sick employee home during the pandemic,…read moredemanded I come to work when on isolation after I and most of the staff got COVID, and when that employee died, he just sent a two word text: "He's dead." Then he fired me for it (I guess? These guys never write anything down, and I'd never been so happy to get fired.), and lied to unemployment about it. Oh, and my forklift training was "this is up and down, this is tilt, this is back and forwards," and just leaving the building when the next vendor came. And I went ahead and did it without complaint, lol.

I'd like to give them three, but on the day I went, many customers were unmasked.  The way in was…read morenot encouraging enough about masks.  The staff was tired of asking folks to protect themselves and others.  While the store supports Christian programming on TV, they don't go very far to support or require Christian behavior.  The unmasked folks clearly had multiple underlying conditions, and were the folks we're trying to protect most, which was an irony lost of them but not to me. Surplus City is like Ollies, but a little broader and more idiosyncratic, if that is possible. They reminded me a bit of Building 19, but not as wild as Spags.   Makers would find lots of hardware and materials to use.  Prices were low enough you might try something to see if it works as a craft, hobby, or repair. I'll be back post-pandemic to browse at more leisure. Paul R.'s picture is helpful. it shows the entry, which is the downhill building of the two. To Mary: Most of what you suggested is correct (stay distant, don't touch your face, I would add in particular, your mucous membranes). Nearly any people who have been told by medical staff not to obstruct their own breathing should not be out and about. See the CDC web site. I fear that you misunderstand the medical and healthcare advice out there. I find that I am better informed when I follow the CDC, WHO, and PA public health rather than other sources. "If you think wearing a mask is going to stop a nano-sized virus you are kidding yourself". Technically, you are true, most masks do not stop 100% of viruses. On the other hand, if you mean that masks will not stop this pandemic, I believe you are incorrect. The CDC, PA Dept of Health, all the professors at Penn State Hershey, and Penn State Biology, and all the MD, PhD, RN/PhD, and MD/PhD that I talk to believe that masks can stop this pandemic if enough people use them. For your sake, and for ours, so we can get back to work and play, wear a mask to protect yourself (they are not perfect, but help a lot) and help others in case you are asymptomatic. Also, the virus is not nano-sized, but micro-sized. Nano is down by the molecule level, the molecular weight of this virus is not high, but does appear to be caught in significant amounts by most masks as it is thousands of molecules (see: https://nanohydroponicscom.files.wordpress.com/2016/05/nano-size-range.jpg?w=882), and Dr. Google. The science and engineering of how masks work relies on college EM physics. google for details. I suspect the electro statics also catch nanoparticles, and Dr. Google concurs.
