Has anybody got Covid again in a month?

I’m honestly curious why the following happens: someone asks a question about covid restrictions/health issues/ etc and half of the responses are “this shouldn’t even be a question”. Today I saw a post about safe countries to travel to and general covid restrictions and half the responses were judgmental and rude. “No one should be traveling now- idk why you’re even asking this question.” “Asking this question means you’re part of the problem” what is UP w this level of judgment?????

How long is too long of gap due to COVID and will companies ie (young recruitment teams who are naive) overlook thise gaps due to the economy?

Anyone in Los Angeles gotten a COVID test with quick turnaround?

Traveled for the first time this week since COVID and got the dreaded “do you have kids?” question at team dinner. Him-“do you have kids?” Me- “No, I don’t.” Him-“Oh good! That’s the right choice!!” Me (awkwardly)- “I still have time… I’m not even 30 yet!” (Team member who knows about our 3 month and 6 month miscarriages looking on with THE saddest face) Ughhhh. He had absolutely no idea and meant well since everyone was talking about their kids but gosh…I wish this didn’t have to be a thing😩

Table A escalated to a fight and had to be both separated and asked to leave. Who is right?

Boss: oh, really? I thought you'd want to stay on.

Me: lololololol why?

Boss: the client said they liked your voice so much during your interviews that they want you to do the voice over for the commercial.

Me: ...oh?

Me: well, let's not be too hasty. I should probably stay on a little longer then, wouldn't want to jeopardize the commercial or anything...

What is the cringiest thing you’ve heard someone say at work?

"How long do you go to jail if you don't pay your child support?" 💀

I’ve been working at this company for a year now and they’ve recently gone through a merger with another company. Now there are two sets of C level leadership. Everything is confusing and I feel like employees are being left in the dark. I asked someone in HR for some information as to Wage tables etc and haven’t received a response in over a month. There is no way of telling if this person even works here anymore!
