{COVID-19} Vaccination Injection Interjections VIII - Who cares at this point

[6souls]

I thought I had the same head cold that I went through around Halloween. Anyways, now is the season of giving.

Spoiler: show

[Cail]

why did you go to work with symptoms without testing doofus

this

[Forte]

Don't go to work sick fuckboys.

[Richybear]

You're not a team player like Billy in AR unless you come in with a 104 degree fever, champ

[Richybear]

I'm only half joking with that being a mentality. Covid is now smashing my work's head office because earlier in the week people that were sick still showed up because "Gotta have things wrapped up for year end!"
Waiting to see how bad it gets because they also just had their holiday party and can't miss out on free food and booze!

[6souls]

I don't actually have a fever. They tested that at work before sending me home.

[mallister]

We never ran a fever with ours.

[Outlaw]

Got sent home from work today for being too sick for others to want to be around me. They told me I should test for covid and it appears that I have finally hit the lotto.

Did testing positive give you a boner?!

My family made it four years without anyone in the house getting sick but our 5yo just tested positive this morning. Fuck. The power was out all day on top of that. Here's hoping that none of the rest of us get sick in the next 2-5 days. We are all fully vaccinated though the 5yo and the 3yo haven't gotten their boosters yet.

Got my second round of it from my mother who visited last week. She's already fine and I'm through the worst of it.

Hard choice for people who work for companies/managers that fire/penalize your schedule if you call in sick/don't dance monkey.

Blame American capitalism.

Go cough in the manager's office saying "hey boss I dont feel so good" then cough some more and follow up with "I was gonna call in sick, but I know the team needs me and I'm a team player", then cough some more.

My old firm didn't penalize for sick days, but did offer an award for anyone who worked a full year (sans vacation). It was spearheaded by just one guy. Once he stepped down from the board the entire company received unlimited sick days, and the award was removed.

Terrible policy turned good.

[6souls]

My work doesn't do sick pay. This is a 5 day vacation with no pay.

[Tyrath]

That's fucked up

[kuronosan]

That's also bullshit. I can't believe employers get away with that.

[Byrthnoth]

But moral hazard tho

It’s always so weird to me when americans argue about sick leave. We have unlinited days in Sweden and I believe most of Europe. If you’re you’re sick, being out of sick days doesn’t change that and just puts you and others at risk. It’s absurd to me.

Americans see it as lacking a better job rather than part of the exploitation of labor.
