without hazard pay? I work for a 21 billion a year company and they just gave us masks Friday. No extra pay, just be a company man and hope for the best.

*raises hand*

I work at a critical chemical plant, but that doesn't explain why I drive to work everyday. I could do 60% of my job from home.

I’m working, but online and via Zoom.
I’m a professor.
So I’m teaching and holding classes from my home.

I'm an RN at a detention center in Colorado working with illegals (undocumented aliens for you libs). 2 cases so far and admin is being very hush hush about it. Very little PPE, I've been using the same N95 mask for 2 weeks that I have carried around for over a year. It is one from a fit test in 2018.

Btw, hazard pay? What's that?

Thank you for all you’re doing, Topisawtiger.
God bless.

Father, You are mighty and worthy to be praised.
Father, I come before You asking for protection and strength for the healthcare professionals on the front lines of the COVID-19 battle.
Father, we are weak; but You are our strength.
So Father, keep us close to Your healing hand during this.
Amen

would you rather receive hazard pay or lose your job entirely? Be happy you’re still getting a paycheck

ETA: I’m still working as well fwiw. I’m deemed “essential”

What age group? My kid starts the 13th and her school is a bunch of liberal betas so I expect it to be a mess

But wondering how it is on Zoom
