I carry a sound alarm device on my keychain for protection. It is extremely loud and safer than pepper spray.

Having been a mobile / home massage therapist previously, I learn to practice “street smarts” tactics.

I was surprised there were no questions about COVID safety to stay well and safe. I always let someone know where I'm going to be, just in case of any emergency.

I was surprised there were no questions about COVID safety to stay well and safe. There are questions on the internet almost every day about accepting assignments when the signer has COVID.

Always let someone know where you are going. And when you will leave. set up a video if meeting at a residence, but meeting in a public place is always the best answer. Make sure your phone is charged, vehicle is great working order, and use a GPS to get you there and back. Make sure you contact your back up and let them know things went ok. Think of your safety first.

Take every precaution regardless of the simplicity of the sigining. Call a friend, take a video, and have someone check in on you while you are there. Set up a coin phrase that will alert them to a possible problem. Best of all , pay attention to your surroundings.
