Anonymous Coward User ID: 78474764 Canada 03/15/2020 11:37 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Actually I won't be. My boss called me a little after 9:30 tonight to tell me that we are now going to be closed. Quoting: Anonymous Girl Which means you'll be paid now, right? Yes, I think so. Yeah, that's a relief I'm sure. My daughter works at a daycare center. She'll be paid too but she's not happy about it... she would rather go to work and have things back the way they were before teotwawki. |

User ID: 73898431 United States 03/15/2020 11:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm a Utility Arborist. I remove trees that fall on powerlines. Better then having to work inside around people. I'm a single dude and only work with one other person. That puts me in a good position all things considered. My only concern is my co-works gf is a teacher for many kids. if he gets sick he can remove the trees himself. By I do understand keeping the power on for the ungrateful masses is paramount. I will go on for as long as possible. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78302881 Props to you! If it helps, I've read that being outdoors and out in the sunshine (UV rays) could possibly help prevent viruses from taking hold and also boost immunity/general health. |

User ID: 78153434 United States 03/15/2020 11:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have lots of sick leave and vacation too! I never take it. There's nowhere to go and no one to take and no 'extra' money to do it with anyways. And I'm not just staying home wasting it by staying home and doing nothing either. But, I'm a janitor, it's not that hard. 3 years I've never had a long vacation. Just like two days off in a row. And extended holidays by a day so it feels like I'm taking something. They did shut down the college but all "essential personnel" will be in as normal. So yeah, working... Living has taught me one thing; nothing is certain...except salvation through Jesus Christ! |

User ID: 72608383 United States 03/15/2020 11:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I work at a public library in Illinois and will be going in to work tomorrow. We will not be open to the public, but we will be there to answer phones, emails, and process book deliveries of holds that people ordered. We're going to be doing a lot of projects like painting, creating signage, weeding through books and cleaning them, etc. We are talking about still having people be able to pick up their book holds at the door. We are also able to use vacation time if we have any. |

I'm on the front line, come into contact with 100s of people a day. I love my job security right now. Hopefully a truck comes in tomorrow. The shelves are getting sparse. I already stocked up, with my employee discount. I might cash in some of my vacation hours for a little something to fall back on. |
