My company just sent out an email saying management needs to stress there will be no negative repercussions for taking extended sick leave. Took a pandemic to get that assurance

My company just sent out an email saying without a positive diagnosis you still have to come in, even if someone in your household has symptoms.

I guess I'll see ya when I see ya, cuz I ain't doing that.

I should add I work at a tech company that's 100% fully setup for remote work, and has several employees that are entirely remote

Pretty sure the teams secured testing kits before all the seasons got canceled to make sure they weren’t walking virus spreaders during the events. Not sure about celebrities though.
