@Guiness_Pig I worked for someone who had a reputation of bouncing the last cheques of the folks who quit. No surprise, my final cheque bounced. The best part was - after ignoring my calls, I accidentally ran into her AT THE BANK. She walked over to the ATM with her tail between her legs.

@DGBassani They’ll blame long covid on anything but long covid. My sister had covid, and shortly after she got a sinus infection - her doctor said it was because she wasn’t exposing herself to enough germs, not that covid could have made her more vulnerable

This very real risk, but don’t forget the “we’re still masking” but then you find out that they eat out every week, are unmasked around friends, family, at school, with professionals, during extra-curricular activities, at work…etc etc, etc, etc.
