Why would one run to get tests with the sniffles???

If one were getting a cold, wouldn't one just wait and see what develops?? What is the rest of this workers story Ken?? Has he been sick for a few days or has he had COVID symptoms ?

Our company policy states that if we have so much as a sniffle, cough, or wet fart we cannot report into any of our Facilities, I'm guessing that in order to protect his customers, and co-workers, he's following that same mindset.

Is it over the top? Yes absolutely, but that's the directive right now.

Same as us. Get tested and stay home 14 days. Especially because we do patient care. Can’t go to work sick

And every month is a month closer to communism

Too many snowflakes and followers, is why it will never get back to normal

Same as lumber...... who in the phuck would lower their prices now, that everything has gone up 500% and people still buying it

Absolutely unbelievable!!

So colds and sniffles, allergies, any little thing related to the respiratory system is cause for concern??? Ray, the test results come back in, at the most, 3 days; what if it is negative? Are you considered a normal person then?

Yup!!!!

I have asthma and went for lung testing today, even though I'm having troubles breathing due to asthma. I still can't say it when asked the questions.
It's completely out of control Doug, and most everyone seems to be fine with it. Because they are going along with the system, it's completely retarded and the ones who don't want to rock the boat get more complacent everyday

I am fine with it. If it means have to wait a couple more days for deck no big deal. If buddies business has to shut down for isolation for 2 weeks then maybe he loses contracts or gets customers sick? Its part of life now. The ones spreading it around because they won't get tested are the reason we are where we are at right now in my "opinion".
