report her immediately to HR..if they can't convince her, report employer to the Labor Board and OSHA..she's putting your whole household at risk..contact an employment attorney- they love when big corporations drop the ball..consult before you leave and document, document and document. make sure you screen shot everything..once your access disappears, so will network documents..the 2nd part of your post sounds like a hostile work environment to me..doesn't your state now have mandatory inside mask requirement?Well I have had an extra horrible couple of weeks.
I work for a very large organization. They have been pretty proactive about COVID 19 shit. All the employees have to check in using their phone on an app to tell if they have had any recent Covid symptoms. But enforcement of this kind of depends on where you are and who is locally in charge. So we have had no enforcement. Recently we have had employees with the full range of symptoms and yet they wanted to return to work as soon as they felt better. Despite very clear guidelines that they cannot and them being instructed that they must either wait nearly two weeks or get a clean Covid test, they have been allowed to return without the test after a couple of days.
Then a mandatory mask edict was sent out - perversely on the same day as the potential carrier was allowed to return to work. All were ignored.
Let's just say that eventually, higher up people got involved after a while and masks were instituted. They were instituted begrudgingly and ineffectively.
I share an office with a woman who you could accurately call Karen. She looks like this if you give her about thirty additional years, all of which were spent being beaten with a heavy stick, and then she developed a severe case of alopecia.

She won't wear a mask despite sharing the office with four other people. I have had to ask her to wear one every day. She begrudgingly places it on her chin, leaving her mouth and nose exposed. When I ask her to put it on, she loudly abuses me and departs on a political diatribe. At night she spends most of her time ripping me with the other employees on Facebook. I seen it.
Today was particularly special. She had scrawled Trump 2020 on her mask (fine with me, I like it when people self identify as assholes) and finally put it on her chin while screaming about freedom. She told me I am not her boss (I'm not), and when I pointed out that we were all management and it was our responsibility to set an example and ensure that safety regulations are met, she flipped me off and used her middle finger to push it up over her mouth. One minute later it was back on her whiskery chin.
Anybody that says Trump isn't responsible for Covid-19 deaths is stupid enough to be a Trump supporter.
I guess I am looking for a new job.
that was huge for them..how are they feeling on masks?Sorry to hear about your situation Unclebaldrick .
I had a good Covid experience happen today at work. I helped to get the monthly staff meeting to go virtual !
I have alot of after effects I kinda do feel maimed. Just tell myself people survive worse and to not be a pussy. It works most days, although I am starting to feel old now lol. Like I said shit feels like your dying from cancer, even months after. Just cant give up that will to live!!Yer lucky you weren't maimed for life, many are, many more than die from it.
Having a set of cuffs on Trump by sundown on inauguration day would be a wonderful way for the SDNY DA to keep their job. Joe is going to inherit a bankrupt graveyard with no transition meetings to help smooth the way, he will be fucking outraged. Joe is going to have to hit the ground running and there are old hands on his team who know where the levers of power are. Joe is an old man and this is his chance to not just make a difference, but for greatness, he will shine brightly, even if he burns out doing it. Churchill was great for the adversity he overcame, Joe knows this, such problems make great men, you will see what a real POTUS can accomplish. Give Joe a year with some willing hands (and there will be many) and ya won't know the place, until Trump and the republicans are gone it will be dystopia.I want a tshirt that says Individual #1 lol
Ya get an A for attitude! Many are going through this shit, maybe some help and solutions can be found online, folks with problems help each other and there are probably doctors and other experts involved too. I costs nothing to look, who knows ya might be able to class action sue Trump, get in line!I have alot of after effects I kinda do feel maimed. Just tell myself people survive worse and to not be a pussy. It works most days, although I am starting to feel old now lol. Like I said shit feels like your dying from cancer, even months after.

I can't find it in me to refer to him any other way than Individual 1, certainly not president and (ahem) Trump is just foul.I want a tshirt that says Individual #1 lol
We are doing well on masks. When the city mask mandate with $500 fine for not wearing went into effect last week I saw an improvement with a few staff members And patients . Some are even doubling up like me. Watch plastic face shields more often now as well.that was huge for them..how are they feeling on masks?

Those are bad ass. I would wear those on top of another mask with a filter. I have some that look like they might be the same spandex like material. They are really awesome because you can fold them up so small and tuck them into your jeans pocket. But protection wise very poor. Enough to keep you legal.i ordered these and this company donates 10%:

is your blood type B?Yeah COVID sucked I was sick two months straight. I thought I had cancer had a breakdown thought I was dying sure felt like it!
I have no clue what my blood type is, but that sounds spot on for me. I experience all of those symptoms, and my depression is running rampant ever since meds just are not working anymore life is a blur!! Cant wait for better dayz ahead!!I can't shake Covid-19: Warnings from young survivors still suffering | CNN
Whether they contracted the virus in the snow-capped peaks of the Alps or in the heart of the outbreak in New York's borough of Queens, these young survivors are warning their generation of the long-term risk of drinking in a crowded bar.www.cnn.com
Daniel Green is still hobbled by the severe viral infection that struck him in March and left him coughing up blood.
Three months ago, the 28-year-old postdoctoral research associate from Newcastle, United Kingdom, was on the road with friends in a band as they toured venues in the French Alps.
He came down with Covid-19 symptoms, and like many coronavirus patients, spent weeks in bed.
Unlike other people, however, Green's life hasn't returned to normal.
"Since then it's been on and off with extreme tiredness and fatigue," he said.
Every day he has brain fog, difficulty concentrating and problems with short-term memory that make reading, writing and speaking harder.
This has been a trend since the mass production of printed books 500 years ago and the cult of celebrity began in the 18th and 19th centuries with authors like dickens and twain and many poets too. Next came music, radio and film, then TV and cable, next the internet and today the wireless world of cell phones and 4G service. Every second we spend with these technologies is a second we don't spend directly interacting with other humans, if everybody does it a lot, it makes the world a lonelier place for everybody. Social/emotional skills fail to develop properly or atrophy, stress levels also increase and have been decade by decade as measured by standardised tests, in lock step with technology. Younger people are more stressed out than older folks who don't adopt the technology as much or as pervasively.thoughts?
Chat bots are becoming uncannily human. Can they be our friends?
While social media and mass communication technology have made connecting easier than ever, loneliness -- the sadness that comes from a perceived lack of social connection -- has been recognized as a serious problem. Tech is trying to help.www.cnn.com

Back in the 50's they studied the last town to get TV before and after, the streets and restaurants emptied when, I Love Lucy was on, there was a marked social change in the community with one channel of black and white, radio had a similar impact in the 30's and 40's. The cumulative effect of all these technologies is to offer an enormous variety of entertainment options, in 1900 the only sound in your house was the ticking of the clock in the hall, folks socialised more.
