Thinking that way and having a healthy loving family and all the basic necessities

of life; food, running water that gets hot, running water at all, good health, heat, shelter, clothing, freedom of mobility, freedom to read what you want and freedom of speech (kind of anymore), my friend, you ARE in Nirvana NOW. What more could one want? The rest is just icing on the cake. This is what I think of daily. Problems . . . I don’t really have any when I remember these blessings. Much more fortunate than most and extremely grateful and appreciative.

Some of you may agree, some may disagree. If you are sick stay home from work/the office. Going to work sick is not being a hero, it is being a dumb ass. We have had 3 people go home today, all before noon and I'll guarantee you none of them felt good thi...
Agree with you completely.

And I think that because there is a wider acceptance of a work from home/office split (perhaps diminishing slowly) those individuals that don't feel well can still offer some output whilst not having to make themselves weaker by travelling and stressing w...
Agreed, there is no one here that can" work from home.

I did it for 2 years during the height if COVID and didn't miss a beat. Making someone in the office sick doesn't just make one more person sick, remember they take it home and pass it along, and so on and so on. Sorry, this is just my rant for the day be...
While I can work from home, there are jobs that really can’t…

Few examples, equipment maintenance and people who work at production facilities…hourly paid vs salaried/exempt employees. I do agree that if someone is feeling sick should stay home, but what if they do not have vacation time or sick time and they need t...

That’s what I tell people. Moreover, at my age 55, having a routine in itself is a luxury. Boring is good! Everything else is gravy.
Masks…

…seem to be a heavily politicised thing in the West. Here in Hong Kong where I live, people still remember SARS from 2003, and masks are no big deal (some people still wear them, especially the elderly or those in service jobs; the vast majority don’t). I...
The best part about COVID

is that now people dont look at me weird for doing things like using hand sanitizer or refusing handshakes lol
Honestly, I can't get exercised over this stuff.

People have different sensitivities for sure, and I'd prefer not to be around sick people either... But the pendulum has swung way too far to the paranoid side (for many, not all). Attempted isolation from pathogens, bathing oneself in hand sanitizer, and...
Bingo, my exact feelings!🥂
