I'm sad and scared - Employer forcing me to attend work in person

[freebird5850]

I have been working from home since Feb 2020 in Wa state. In my job role there is no reason for me to be in office since all assembly labor has been transferred out of state. Now they are forcing us to attend in person for a minimum of 3 days a week. The DOH website states that covid is mutating into different variants and the vaccines in some cases less effective. This excerpted directly from DOH Wa, "The detection of these COVID-19 variants in our state reminds us that this pandemic is not over. Now that these variants have been found, it is critical to double down on all the prevention measures to protect Washingtonians against COVID-19. I'm sad and very scared.

This is satire, right? I ask because I didn’t see the sarcasm symbol.

Take Vitamin D3, Vitamin C, zinc. Put silver gel ointment up your nose. You’ll be OK.

KEY: Declare Psalm 91 over yourself and cast out the spirit of fear. You have been given power, love, and a sound mind.

If I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me?

Good thing you are not a checker at the grocery store.

Fear of covid is my main fear. My wife even gave up her job as a school bus driver to stay away from large groups in confined spaces.

Remember who ?

“Good thing you are not a checker at the grocery store.”

That’s a good example of a thing that seems odd. We’ve gone to the same City Market throughout the entire COVID thing, and the same people are there working every time we go in, same stockers, same checkers, same managers.

My wife has been back to her gym 5 days a week since it reopened a few months ago. There has not been a single case come from that gym.

How can it be that so many people are failing to catch this thing?

Covid seeks out Fear

Don’t remember . . . but I must be traveling on now, because there’s too many places I’ve got to see.

[SaxxonWoods]

Someone didn’t get the reference...

“If I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me?”

For I must be traveling on now
‘Cause there’s too many places I’ve got to see

[SaxxonWoods]

Ah, you did get it!

[ConservativeMind]

Can you help me understand your apparent immunity issues? Is it simply being older and possibly overweight, or more?

[Olog-hai]

I posted it.

[freebird5850]

Yeah, lots of flame for sure. They are really enjoying their new found power which is fine and suppose healthy too. No worries.

Look at post #83.

I have been at work in person since April 13th 2020. Suck it up buttercup.

[freebird5850]

Oh yes, every day except taking a sick day after getting a flu shot. I ALWAYS get bed-ridden for a day or two after.

[blackdog]

Yes. If you punch back as good as you get, I’m making a hospital visit soon.

If you copy this thread and give it to your boss he’ll at least give you a courage under fire medal!
