Is your workplace still open?

Mine is. The company sent out an email to all employees about the virus, but there was nothing in it about the possibility of the warehouse closing down.
Definitely... hospital 😷🙂

@Somewhereovertherainbow Oh I know. 😣Energy drinks are my saving grace right now. Between work, chasing a 14 month old around the house and dealing with a fiancee who's already getting stir crazy, I'm going to want a long vacation once all of this is over.
@Alijah poor you ... my kids are home from school for 3 weeks and my hubby is freaking out over this virus 😆
Alijah · 36-40, M
@Somewhereovertherainbow I'm not extremely worried about the virus, as much as I am people not using common sense or having my daughter catch it.
Healthcare never closes. People need to be taken care of.
@rottenrobi I wish human kindness and empathy was as strong and spread like this virus is and shall. Thank you so much. We don't get thanked often. It means so much to us. :)

It take martial law and a mandatory all people quartine to close my work place. It's called a grocery store. We're seeing sales like never seem before
foggymorning31 · 36-40, F
@PoetryNEmotion there are on some goods by state mandate and some my company has limited such as the same items with limits in our sale paper. Don't seem like it we were told today to remove the Fri sale insert in our weekly ad. There will not be one this Fri due to we can't guarantee that we will have the items

@PoetryNEmotion the person I feel bad for is the lady that does our pick up orders shes gone from 1 or 2 a day to 1 or 2 an HR. She worked 10 hours today and did 13 pickups

@foggymorning31 Probably the same for my place. They don't give a crap at all.

Meanwhile our local news station says the local Amazon fulfillment center is not only not shutting down but hiring 2000 temps and are raising pay temporarily until end of April 2 dollars
SubstantialKick · 31-35, M
@foggymorning31 So they shutting down but hiring other employees in the meantime?
foggymorning31 · 36-40, F
@SubstantialKick no Amazon is expecting more orders so they are hiring more employees this is usually a slow time year for them. I'm guessing they doing the extra 2 dollars to get ppl in though Amazon one highest paying places here. In 2013 I made 13.75 an HR working there and its gone up since. In guessing they trying to get some the ppl laid off by other places in

@Success you have background in these fields, or do you have lectures to teach each subject?

Warehouses don't care if the workers get sick, even though a warehouse is the perfect way to infect tons of people at once...
SubstantialKick · 31-35, M
@raysam363 Yep, I was just thinking that. The people in charge are really laid back and hardly care about anything.
purplepen · 51-55, F
Yes. And a lot of our customers have masks.
Alijah · 36-40, M
Yeah, I'm sure it's going to stay open.
Dusty101 · F
No. And it feels very strange!
