I did get bad news in a unscheduled meeting today.

It does effect me since I remote in via google hangout. but my coworkers are.

Last Week one coworker had a friend die from the virus.
This coworker show up to our Thursday meetings then on Friday he got sick. The friend that pass away was in their 30s.

They have notified our office they are all exposed. I am a full time telecommuter and I did not drive in last week. Total of 30 coworkers are waiting to see if the other coworker is infected.

When we drive in we spend the day with each other and each lunch together. They are worried. We are on full time telecommute, all required drive in meetings have been cancel.

A friend flies a round trip every week to a new location for work. He was sick as a dog guzzling Nyquil two weeks ago. Told him to go to the doctor. He waited until he finished the week and got back home until going to the doctor. By that time he was feeling better. The doctor said he probably had it and would be immune to it so he was cleared to go back to work Monday morning to fly out again.

His work finally decided he shouldn’t fly after last week so put him on driving distances.

sigh....
