I'm Disappointed in My Co-workers

Everybody, except for one, is treating this virus  like it's a joke.

 

It isn't a joke.

 

 

This is why I prefer my cats over ( most) people.

 

 

My co-workers range in age from early 20's to 65+.

There will always be a cross section of folks who are skeptics of everything.  But leadership with honesty and integrity to tell them what is going on, is the key and they apparantly haven't had any good leadership.

Keep in mind the old adage if I don't laugh about it, I'll cry.  Humor covers up a lot of tragedy.

Take care of you. My co workers are just that. They are not friends. I dont have to take them in nor do I financially support them.

 

One co worker's biggest concern was getting her spring break vacation cancelled and she even bought new swimwear for it!

 

As a society, I swear we get more shallow every single day.

@Snowpuppy, that's all well and good until one of those flippant coworkers infects others.

Yes, it could be dark humor, amongst those who have to work. Until my job got suspended last week, we had a bit of this going on

That we don't need to quarantine at home, that limiting groups to ten people or less is silly, that it isn't as serious as it is.
