Hello everyone, I would to hear other people’s thoughts. So my mom runs a company which her and other employees salary is paid by their members (trade association). She’s above 60 and takes a medicine which makes her a higher risk for COVID. The members are having a convention in Florida in a few months, and while “there’s no for staff to be there”.. she’s running the meeting so they’re expecting her to be there. She doesn’t want to go but feels huge Professional pressure. I think it’s CTD

I would say for her to let the company know that she cannot go due to being at risk (pre existing condition) and document her reasonings in an email to her manager.

My dad is also in his 60s and is at risk. If his work forced him to go in, I know he’d refuse and fight it. Thankfully, his work is super understanding.

I think it’s incredibly stupid for her to go and them to have this in-person convention during a global pandemic. Should she lawyer up and document everything in case she gets sick? Should she just refuse to go and if she’s fired sue the company? Horrible situation but I can’t really figure out the best course of action and would love some communal brainpower

Yup, document as much as possible and lawyer up if the company/association is pushing for her to go.

Something I just thought of...see if she can get her medical provider to write a note saying that she should not attend this conference. That would hold a good bit of weight.

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…

I haven't been to this national park yet, so I was curious how it compares to Zion for example, where it is easy to bike from "stop to stop" to view the scenery or do a hike!

Thank you!
