Introverts During Covid Meme
As an introvert, I never felt affected by a lot of the changes that took place when Covid struck. I stay at home most of the time if I am not at work, and I don't often go out in large social gatherings. I love my personal space, and I prefer the anonymity of wearing a mask. Sometimes, Covid felt like an excuse to stay home and do the things I love. This is not to underestimate the challenges that everyone faced; I just faced the challenges through my health and job, not social distancing or quarantining. These memes reflect a lighthearted view of what it was like to experience Covid as an introvert. -

Caffeine, Essentially
When news of the pandemic reached my area, one of my biggest concerns was whether or not I would be able to keep working. As a Starbucks employee, I wondered if what we did fell under the category of "essential worker". Sure enough, we are essential to many of the doctors, nurses, and other first responders who are truly essential in this time. Starbucks as a company immediately took precautions to be able to safely serve people who came to their establishments, as well as ensure the health of their workers. For the first two months of the pandemic, we operated as a drive-thru only store. It was truly startling to see all of the café furniture pushed to the walls, and once the sun came up it looked even more bizarre to see a quiet, empty area, where it is usually crowded and noisy. -

Safety First
The cartoon indicates that the COVID- 19 pandemic is not just a mortality and public health crisis but also a political, economic and social crisis. The pandemic affects business and the economy that cause political and social conflict on the closure of businesses that affect employment. However, the main point of the cartoon is to promote precaution of the virus and encourage people to stay at home for the sake of their and everyone's safety as an effort to fight against Corona which has proven to be difficult. From what I've seen so far when going out in public, most people doesn't really follow the social distance rule or staying at home even though it is highly recommended countless of times on news. My aunt did not take strict safety precautions such as wearing mask and gloves even if she do not lack any of these supplies or reuse the supplies over and over again because she was afraid of wasting it. She was soon involve in a Corona case where her colleges at her workplace was contaminated so she have to get tested. My whole family and I was shock and scare upon the news because we were afraid that she would be contaminated and spread it onto her family, fortunately, it was negative. I hope that she have understand the situation better and take better precautions for the sake of her family and herself. I understand that these type of protection supplied are limited and expensive at this time, but we should always put our health and life above everything else and make sure that the supplies your using is clean and safe, even if you have to find alternative ways like using a washable mask.
