Not coworkers but every year my family, wife's sisters family and wife's mom split a beach house three ways and go to the beach for a week.

I heard yesterday the other family wants us to quarantine for two weeks before we go.

I said No.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Probably why you are about to be single again.


What does my opinion of the president have to do with my marital success??

Also...my husband hates Trump wayyyyyy more than I do, and he is the political junkie of the two of us. He used to lean much more heavily on to the Republican side...until Trump got into office.

My boss is fairly concerned but he lives his life in a bit of fear. He’s not a world is ending type but a bit of a negative Nancy.

His son that works for him is like me. We’re over it and ready to live our life.

One millennial lady is tepid but ok with getting out there and moving

The other millennial lady is living in perpetual fear and won’t leave the house except for groceries. She hasn’t seen her boyfriend in person for the majority of the lock down.

Just curious ... Are you guys behind Biden as the next president over Trump?

Nah my company is reintroducing people into office very slowly, even slower than government recommendations, so there's nobody to argue with in person. We use Teams for chatting but the politics of the virus don't really seem come up.

Typical of the average American.

People don't want to control their own behaviot, but love to control everyone else's.

This is one of those moments where one must give to get and to get - give.

On a personal level much of this is silly but when on company time - as a non-owner - my personal beliefs are but one voice among many. Have chosen to mitigate the steps but even then some are prudent.

I have a couple of partners who are freaked out about it.


Without knowing their medical history and possible underlying conditions they may or may not have a good reason to be freaked out.

Why aren't you making bank being a Doctor. You have a gift if you can diagnose underlying conditions with just a glance other than obesity

Or they may have family members that live in their home that are vulnerable so they don’t want to get sick and pass it to them.

I mean....you do spend a considerable amount of time a day at work. In some work environments (say you work in a small office with several people)....it could spread more easily if someone had it and didn’t realize it.
