If you were a young female in Washington state, would you give your contact info to the bartender?

In Washington, if a bar/restaurant wants to open they have to collect contact info for customers.
Really?
Would you give some greasy bartender or leering Maitre D your contact info?

I mean, I might, but on the other hand in my case they would probably just throw it away.

Wow—that would be a good pick-up line.

Tell a girl I need her contact information, due t the COVID-19 crises.

Pfft, and then he makes my drinks?
Not if he had a truckload of tp and Lysol!

Shoot, I’d give him my scented knickers if he promised me fame & fortune.
Yes, I would likely be that shallow :D

“Greasy”? “Leering”? I wouldn’t go in there in the first place.
For the places I would go, yes, I would have. I tended bar, it’s hard work, I seriously would doubt that they would care beyond the public safety issue.

Oh, and really, when the bartender cards someone, they see their contact info anyway. If you really want to be there, you. Imply without thinking too much about it.

I like how a safety measure for contact tracing has been ridiculed by the glorious right.
If it is a greasy spoon or a dive bar why would you want to go in there in the first place?
But if someone from the place came down with Covid 19 they can see who was in there around that time and get them to self isolate as to not spread the virus.
But I can see the right not liking that.

A k, sorry typo. “If you want to be there, you comply…”

SQUEEKY2's avatar

About the short of it.^^^
Don’t want to comply simple don’t go.

Anytime I was carded, I kept my finger over the address. They could still see the picture and age.
