I was forced to drive into town yesterday. The fucking traffic sure didn't feel like we've had 1% die-off, yet.

A lot of the people dying weren't driving. And were way under 1% dead.

Ugh.

I feel like I need to start putting, "I don't mean this literally" on most of my posts, any more.

We can't help it if your joke posts are just as off base and incorrect as your real posts!

Apparently we're seeing cases spike in 28 states, and hospitalization rates are way up.
800-1000 Americans are dying to it daily.
Meanwhile, today marks my company's return to 100% staffing. We have to be in our offices, with doors shut, wear masks in the hallways and common areas, face to face communication is strongly discouraged unless absolutely necessary, and then want lunches staggered so people aren't jammed into the lunch room.
Did I mention the company president hasn't been seen in months, has cancelled all planned trips, and they want me to setup Zoom so they can hold board meetings remotely through October?
The best part of that? The primary reason they want people back in the office is "perception". They don't want the plant people working, but not seeing a full parking lot at the office.
Morons.

Yep. :\
We have no definitive plans to return to office, and even if we do return, not sure I'd fly up until we have vaccines/etc.

That's the question everyone is asking, including the CFO, but this is all being spearheaded by the CAO. She's a whole other discussion that would have to take place in a private area.

I wonder if there was an informal poll out in the factory. I wonder if any of them would quit over it. I tend to doubt it.

I used to work for the local power company. During hurricanes or other storms, we'd have to work in the office because "the linemen were out working." 1) No, they waited until the storm passed. 2) One year a woman was driving home after her shift from her office job at the company and got crushed by a tree that fell in the storm.
Oooops.

And then casual friday gets cancelled because there is a client in the building again, that day. Who will never walk through the back of the building where the IT department is.

Clothing is one area I did inform the CFO I would not be changing to match the 100% staffing. I told him, he's my direct boss, that if we're not allowed to have visitors or see people, then I'm not going to be wearing nicer clothes meant for people to see. I'd still be in jeans and a polo.
He agreed.

And, that’s some goodish news on the underlying conditions... assuming you do not have one.
