Covid-19 stupidity

1. Not sure how to sign in Spanish.
2. No, but would be funny.
3. Not quite sure what you mean. We try to keep folks away from each, best we can now, and some wear masks. Lots of noises to speak over.

So no matter how sick you feel, or are, come to work, infect everybody, but at least you got your paycheck.

.

Pretty much the way we’ve always done it. If I’m on call I will put the sick guy in the other truck with someone I don’t like though.

With the Covid frenzy they are not allowing that. Both our company and the company we contract for are pretty much saying that if you get the sniffles you will get sent home. For us, that probably means the entire crew since we share a truck 5-7 days a week.

Does the communication barrier created by social distancing an immediate safety hazard (i.e., somebody’s going to lose an appendage) that wouldn’t otherwise exist? If it does, then is the risk to the worker worth the measure?

I can't think of any industry I worked in where social distancing would create any material hazard.

Anyone know if OSHA is closing shop for the next couple weeks due to the Coronavirus?

Asking for a friend.......

You wish...

I see where the Gov. of Calif. has shut down the whole state but has the pot stores listed as essential businesses so at least you can stay stoned while your sitting in your living room for a month or so.

No. No real safety hazards in my shop. Just further realization of how folks don’t think through things. I’m told no group meetings and to keep distance best we can on shop floor. I can have several small groups get together closely on shop floor where I go over the policy, or have one quick big meeting and be done. None of which maintain “social distancing” guidelines.

I’ll print the memo from HR and make sure everyone has one. Doesn’t mean they’ll read it though.

Break.

Just got a text asking about having someone walk around and clean door handles and keyboards while we work. They might hire create a position to do that.

GameStop is also claiming they’re essential...

I read some of these things and just have to wonder "What is the truth here?"
Some might think that they would not be released at all if not tested clean, right?
Right?

Why could't this happen in September? I'd be at the coast.

According to the CDC and Florida Department of Health they are encouraging everyone to get tested ASAP!!! The US is taking the coronavirus very seriously. New testing methods are being done without having to leave your house. No hospital visit necessary! All you have to do is mail a stool sample to:

Nancy Pelosi
1236 Longworth H.O.B.
Washington, DC 20515
phone: (202) 225-4965

Y'all do know your DNA will be collected and cataloged from the CV tests right.

Yep...I called that on TGT over a week ago.

Like they don't already have it.

From those dumbasses sending it into 23 and me...

 

[Younggun]

They can compare it to what they took from me in the military and make sure I’m not an alien.


Aside from that, I haven’t seen any actual evidence of them creating a DNA database. They could be I guess, but it’s not high on my spectrum of things to be worried about without something to show me it’s happening.

They can have mine.
What could it hurt?

They prolly already do.

I can always replicate plenty more double helices.
