Coronavirus (political)

I used to get so annoyed at some co-workers who insisted coming in when they were clearly ill and contagious.

This is less political and more grind my gears but it fits here. I was grocery shopping yesterday. This lady in line in front of me is sniffing and hacking away while loading her groceries onto the belt. She is telling everyone in ear shot how she has been sick for days and can't seem to shake it. I was too polite I should have asked her a. why if you are sick are your not wearing a mask, especially at a time in history when it is socially acceptable and b. why not just use the online grocery service have them pick everything and curb side it?

I just felt it was very inconsiderate to the cashier and others.

On another note got a call from the school nurse today. My son was in close contact today with someone who tested positive for covid. He now has to stay home from school for ten days and will miss the last week of school. His favorite teacher is retiring he can't say goodbye to him. A shitty end of the school year to a shitty year.
