Members Taoboi Posted October 3, 2021 Members Share Posted October 3, 2021 So today I walked into work and apparently people were busy or perhaps I should say disorganized. Something I am sadly used to since for some reason my upper management seem to think weekends ARE NOT our busy time in hospitality and do not staff accordingly. So I am usually highly caffinated on Saturday for the unnecessary bs. What I did not expect was that someone abruptly checked out today. And I guess it was a case of guilty conscience because they wanted to tell the coworker of mine who checked them in that they had tested positive for Co-Vid. ??? I did not have close contact with that coworker that day. Did not stop me from Lysol-ing down the whole front desk AND her to be on the safe side (her choice). But needless to say I was extremely #$&(ed. Today my brother had to bury our aunt. After a struggle that included her flatlining in the ICU, she succumbed to CoVid. I just had to bury another of our aunts. And later on before my shift ended, I found out that another aunt will be getting buried next weekend. I just could not believe that one would step onto a plane with even a hint that they MIGHT have CoVid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 3, 2021 Members Share Posted October 3, 2021 My condolences to you and your family @Taoboi. May this mark the end of having to mourn any more loved ones for you, and anyone else on this message board. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted October 3, 2021 Members Share Posted October 3, 2021 Thank you, @amybrickwallace. And yes, that is something that I continue to struggle with here because it really has shown me how people truly seem to be. And on a personal and deeper level, that hurts. Especially when you are a person who want to think the best of people even though you are a realist. Thank you as well @DramatistDreamer. I really hope so. I'm not sure I can do another set of family covid deaths again. On the bright side...my brother FINALLY got his second shot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted October 3, 2021 Members Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) Quoting the Reuters article: "An experimental antiviral pill developed by Merck & Co could halve the chances of dying or being hospitalized for those most at risk of contracting severe COVID-19." In reference to anti-vaxxers getting excited about the the Merck pill, I saw this comment on twitter: Isn’t it like - "hey we developed this new method to help 50% of car crash victims after the crash if you aren’t wearing your seat belt." Probably should just wear your seat belt in the first place. Edited October 3, 2021 by janea4old 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted October 3, 2021 Members Share Posted October 3, 2021 @Taoboi Sorry for your loss. Hopefully with the addition of the pill and the vaccines ...we can control this deadly virus. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted October 3, 2021 Members Share Posted October 3, 2021 Thank you @Soapsuds. My worry is that even with someone as simple as a pill (and the shot was simple AF) that people are STILL going to sit here and be toddlers rather than grown men and grown A&* women. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ponds Posted October 3, 2021 Members Share Posted October 3, 2021 Once the weather is much colder and the anti-vaxers come indoors, watch for the numbers to increase again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
