The famous fast-food restaurant In-N-Out Burger has informed employees that they will no longer be allowed to wear masks without presenting a signed doctor's note, according to a company memo leaked on Twitter.
In-N-Out Burger, a Chrisitian-owned company that stood against forced vaccinations for employees and vaccine passports during the covid pandemic, said that the decision was made so customers can see employees' smiling faces when ordering burgers, fries, and milkshakes from the iconic chain.

This makes perfect sense because masks don't work... and the only people still wearing masks are unhinged leftist lunatics who would be a liability to your company."
There are currently 385 In-N-Out Burger locations across five states, and the company announced in January that it will be expanding east of the Mississippi River and will be opening its first location in Tennessee by 2026.
