Personally haven’t had COVID in our household but a few of my coworkers have and it sounds roughly like company was pretty supportive - just let them leverage unlimited PTO to take as much time off as they needed to recover. Seems like worst case was ~2 weeks because luckily no serious cases. They’ve also approved any time off related to sick or family members who have passed if a coworker needs to help or attend funeral.

We had a covid scare and I worked part time while I had to keep my child home from day care for the week.

Table A assumed the joke is because they are Asian and table B says no, everyone got covid not just Asians it’s just a bad joke; who is right?
Table A escalated to a fight and had to be both separated and asked to leave. Who is right?

Came home and relapsed - it was not a full-on bender but I drank. How do I not beat myself up and just get up and keep going? Alcohol is the WORST thing for any cancer esp breast cancer. WTF is wrong with me!?
