I will not expect anyone to follow any rules outside of work that are not mandated by the County Mayor or Governor. If the company expects me to follow these corporate mandates, there will need to be a renegotiation of my pay. They are requiring me to make lifestyle changes not mandated by any authority and therefore these additional requirements need to be considered in my compensation.





These are the same dumbasses that recommended using Dental dams during oral sex to avoid AIDS.
I take it your work has no policy's in place already regarding what you can or can't do outside of the workplace

Of course they do. I have a non compete clause and IP clause.

Telling me that if I visit my mother in California I'll be subjected to a non paid quarantine is a new requirement that I've never agreed to, nor is it mandated by any legal authority. If they want me to comply they'll have to greatly increase my pay. If they won't I'll ignore their mandates.

We have a "do not talk to the media" rule at our bakery
And
If I choose to go get tested for the covid just for shits and giggles I can't return to work until I have a negative test results letter
Looks like they are choosing to error on the FAR side of caution

So if you don't get tested that's ok, but if you do get tested you MUST show them the results?

There's no talk of testing at my work at all. Just statements that say if you fly it is high risk and you'll be quarantined when you get back. If they wish to keep me from participating in legal activities when I am off work then they need to compensate me for it.

Here are some examples of what they've deemed safe or high risk.

It's not copying over in a readable format, suffice it to say any public transportation is considered high risk.

You’re so full of information but can’t counter points made by a liberal rag. Sweden is a bogey man, you can’t make Muslims do shit, France and Italy are complete shit shows.

Such a wealth of information. You should join the administration and save us all.
Liberal rags are all lies, so what is there to counter? Not that you would acknowledge any counter.

How would they know you have been tested unless you told them? I've never had an employer ask what happened at my doctor's appointment or if I even had an appointment, unless there was a work-related reason to.

Good question!
Don't know, didn't ask and not planning on getting tested anytime soon

Think this isn’t happening all over the US?

Is there any proof he got it because of his mask wearing habits, or is it an assumption or case of confusing correlation with causation? And it’s entirely possible, if not likely, that he would have given it to his wife regardless of his public mask wearing habits and attitude.

Without proof it’s simply an anecdotal story used to chastise and scare people. Way too much of that going on right now.

Is telling people not to drink and drive and having a mother tell the tragic story of her deceased child due to a DUI wreck a scare tactic, or intended to help people understand that it can indeed happen to you?

Smokers think they won’t get cancer, so we educate and have PSA’s showing REAL victims with half their jaw cut off. It’s a way to assist the non believers see the reality that they are deeply in denial about.

I'm sure this will be considered anectdotal but I've made my position on masks clear. My neighbors next door are the opposite. They wear masks, they mostly work from home. She will bring hand sanitizer to my mom if she finds it out and about. Well they are beside themselves because with all their precautions...they BOTH tested positive and are under quarantine. Just saying.

Well it turns out that my wife got it from me and she’ll probably die because I like to lick doorknobs and stuff. Lucky for me I heard how bad it is before I kill more by not wrapping my face in cotton.
