At how many US companies would it be possible to quickly convert their payroll system to give quarantined or sick employees paid time off to non-salaried employees?

Personally, I think it's problematic that a sitting Senator has a racial slur for a last name.

My "vacation" is a euphemism for war tourism in Ukraine for some "bloody work" to escape my boring techie job and family.

Ask me about my warcrimes.

it's too loving funny "you did that Navy thing and you did aid work in Africa, how do we deal with this" "I don't know that's above my pay grade, but for starters work from home" "stop stop stop right there, how will we know they are working and not goofing off"

the correct monetary response here would be for the US government to issue a shitload of bonds and just give the money as a subsidy to have people stay home from work



of course, Trump won't do that (and a Democrat wouldn't either)

People would rather the economy implode and everyone dies of coronavirus than a single dollar go to *those people*.

we sent someone home on friday for having a sore throat, but telework is dead simple where I work since there are a lot of remote employees and everyone in management is like if you have a fever, sore throat or hacking cough stay that gently caress home, we'll mail you a headset and a webcam if you need it.

Install software on all the computers of employees working from home that logs every mouse click and key typed and takes pictures using their webcam every five minutes to make sure they're present and working. If they don't meet requisite standards don't pay them for that hour of work.

Are you new to corporate America or something? How do you not know this?

If we just let people work from home they might start to think that they are real people with human rights. Better to have them keep coming into the office until we can figure out some way to ram the panopticon deep into their private lives.

If we can't stop the pandemic then COVID-19 will probably come back again year after year. Like the flu but extra deadly to olds.

We'll probably live long enough to die from it ourselves.

this isn't a big deal after this year since many people will have developed immunity and there will (probably) be a vaccine next year

the big issue is this year when nobody is immune and there's no vaccine
