Live POAs despite spike in Covid

[anonymous]

Is management trying to give us all Covid for Christmas?!? This is fu@king ridiculous.

Probably. They know natural immunity is the best way to go anyway.

Based on company requirements, everyone attending the POA’s will be vax’d so the potential for an outbreak, while not ZERO, is pretty low.

Just try to avoid the ‘typical’ POA activities like hunting down some ‘strange’. Or wear a mask and a rubber.

Make sure and get the booster!

This is absolutely insane...

If they infect us with Covid mid-December
then we’ll all be sick & quarantined during the last 2 weeks of the year when we’re usually off for the holidays. It’s a win win for the company

You are vaccinated. If you are still concerned, make sure you are masked at all times (but don't push that on the rest of us) and opt out of optional activities. Otherwise, get back to work. No riskier than being in health care settings all day, which is where you should be anyway.

Well if that is where we should, why the big push for virtual!!!!!!

Now they want us to have a rapid Covid test within 48 hours of the POA? This is insane

Just “test positive” right before the POA and land yourself in isolation and you’re out of going. I wouldn’t chance it right before Christmas. Great way to end up alone in your bedroom while your family’s Christmas is ruined.

I’m pretty sure they’ll ask to see a copy of the positive test result. Hell HIPAA
is out the window with this company when we already had to submit a copy of our vaccination card

I’m sure your family wouldn’t mind at all. In fact, they may encourage it.

It's a win-win for you too, because you don't need to take PTO if you are on quarantine.

No, they don't and they can't. Never had to show anyone my positive result sheet.
