darchildreIt was recently decided that we only need to wear gloves at work if we're dealing with unquarantined returns, which means that this week I've gone from wearing gloves for 8 hours a day to maybe 20 minutes, spread out over those eight hours.
You guys, I am perfectly content wearing a mask to work - it's fine, I'm not uncomfortable and I like people not being able to see my face - but the gloves were fucking torture and I'm so happy not to have to wear them anymore. I'm so excited to be able to properly grip things again without having to worry about the inevitable clammy sweat inside the gloves, or to have hands that don't smell like plastic all the time, or to have fingernails that aren't constantly splitting.
Today, I have actual knitted fingerless gloves on (because it's always freezing in here) which I haven't been able to wear all winter. And I got to wear my spinner ring! I haven't had any of my usual fidgets at work since we reopened because none of them were satisfying at all with gloves on but now I can use them again!
It's a small thing, but I'm very happy about it.
