    I don’t know about ”most people in the workforce.” I’m in my mid-30s, and not only do I remember it once or twice from my childhood, I also encountered it once in 2013 (at a brewpub somewhere in New York). You’re right, though, that it becomes less of a thing with each passing year.

      You know it didn’t occur to me that different states banned it at different times and I lived where it happened very early. So that makes sense!
