^^^^But truth be told they were probably this way before COVID.
My workplace got the big email this week that two week paid covid leave is going away on the 31st. Relatively few people have tried to use covid to call out, but there's been a lot of people all year long using it as an excuse to shirk at home or shed tasks and interactions around the office they never liked doing in the first place. In retrospect I suppose it has not been abused anywhere near as much as I might have predicted.Started work at 6:00am this morning. Had one pull the covid card at 6:15am. He was sent home by 6:40 after calling the covid hotline and passing the test. Averaging 8-10 people out a day with "covid". Got our annual Christmas bonus last week and now have 14 people out a day on covid. Everyone likes claiming covid at work but they all come back after testing negative. Lucky me I get to clean up the stations after they pull the bull **** card. Had one mad last week he had to work a job and he did the same as above. Only problem is some guys ferreted him out and took pictures of him working at taco bell two days after his covid episode.
yep.....the crazy is about to go into hyper driveSeems like a time to revisit this?
Michelle Obama opens up about mental health during Covid
Former first lady Michelle Obama spoke candidly in an interview published Wednesday about her struggles with low-grade depression during the Covid-19 pandemic and the challenges of 2020, encouraging Americans to speak more openly about their mental health.amp.cnn.com
It's an editorial, so anyone can say anything without anything that actually backs up the assertion.
Once people reorient their entire life to revolve around group membership in a cause, they are notoriously resistant to disbanding the group. We're going to be dealing with these people for years and years to come. In states where they have power, capacity restrictions and mask requirements will probably never go away. Masks on planes are already permanent by executive order and will never go away.
Sorry for your loss.Just lost a friend to Covid. Had been retired for one year. The deaths will probably start to increase again among those not yet been vaccinated. That is the reason they think the third wave is increasing in tempo across Europe.
Did she() not loose her license to practice for some underhanded insurance activity. Just seems I read that and not sure. Not a statement of fact merely a question.I really don't understand why people listen to Mrs. Obama. Other than being a first lady, she was a lawyer working for a corrupt political machine, and yet she speaks on everything from children's diets to her mental health.
Like royalty, big/social media seems constantly obsessed with her opinions.
