    Touching Your Face

    Maybe its just me but when I try to stay conscious about not touching my face or eyes it seems like they always start itching. I swear my mind is playing a cruel trick on me to test my willpower. Those whole crisis is going to turn me into a neurotic germaphobe. Be glad when this is all over. Going to and from work everyday is like going through decontamination procedures.

    You do it and don’t even realize it most of time

    I read somewhere that we touch our face 23 times an hour on average.

    I've made the effort, and it is tough to stop. Like quitting smoking, I tried to find an alternate activity, but these yahoos I work with don't want me touching their face either. So, kinda stuck.

    LMAO... I thought that it was just me!!! I catch myself all the time. Either rubbing my eyes or nose...Like Ranger487 said, we do it all the time and just ever realize it.

    Everyone be Safe!!!

    Yeah its hard to do, especially in your allergy season of you have an allergy. My allergy is now to about the middle of May. Mine is short, but very bad from swollen throat to red eyes to flowing nose, even the inside of my mouth itches and burns. Near impossible not to ever touch your face under those conditions. Going to be extra diligent to keep hands sanitized and keep a sanitized handkerchief handy at all times as a barrier.

    I remember this one D.I. continually gave one recruit a world of shit because he kept on touching his face.

    I wish they made some type of shock collar or alarm you could wear if your hands get near your face.

    Put on a pair of gloves. I find that I don't touch my face at all when I have gloves on. Given at work, I work gloves constantly, and are usually covered in s***, literally.

    May just be easier for me to wear a buff at work. I think that would actually work.
