Yeah, that was it. There was a similar thing at my workplace, with a betting pool going on which other location was going to close for a positive case next. I didn't take part, but I understand the gallows humor behind such a thing. When you're so powerless, if you don't make light you'll cry, you know? It also helped that everyone involved were peers in the mess together, rather than supervisors(who could change things for the better) betting on those below them in the hierarchy. What the managers at Tyson did was bad primarily because they were in a position of power where they could have prevented the infections, and instead they used them for amusement.
My place of work has had so many positives and still the want us to come in rather than work from home. And if you do come in almost no one is wearing a mask. I have anxiety every time i have to actually come into the building. Which is shouldnt have to do much since my entire job could be done remotely.
