The older people I know won't get their covid shots because of the side effects. They'll get a whole bunch of other vaccines, like everyone other vaccine in the world, just not the covid vaccine. They just get knocked down, and are out of commission for a couple of days.
I try to convince them, but they haven't offically caught covid yet, although they was one suspicious time prior to lockdown where they lost taste and fully believe it was covid, but it's disconcerting thinking that if the vaccine hits so hard, what would actual covid do. Especially, when they have at least 2 risk factors for severe covid.
Nothing so formal. More like just the boss of a construction company not telling people if the person at the desk they were loitering at the day before called in sick cause they tested postive for covid. They didn't want people being conscientious about not infecting anyone else because the spice cash must flow.
Good. Nowadays, theres a degree requirement for so many fields that didn't used to require one. The most competent workers I know, don't have degrees. All the new people with degrees have no clue what they're doing, yet they get paid more and are treated better. It's painful to watch the best performers get passed over, while the people with degrees are held on golden pedestals while they actively drive production into the ground. Especially, when their degree isn't even for the field they're presently employeed in.
While certain jobs should require degrees, there's a huge amount of positions where practical and hands on experience would (and should) trump a degree, any day.
During covid, my company was deemed essential. (Non-healthcare) They would send a email alerting people to the fact that someone had had covid in the building, but refused to name that individual due to it "being a HIPAA violation."
It was so frustrating. I'm like, that's not how that works.
Can't tell you how often I get a reminder to keep my eyes on the road, just because I repositioned my head, or tilted it down to stretch my neck. My eyes are on the road damn it. Now my car will turn off in the middle of the highway if i get a stiff neck...great.
Also, I had no idea subaru did this. I saw a recent article that mentioned a few big named car brands, and subaru wasnt included, so, i was naively hopefull. Plus, I realize im being recorded anyways, in an infinate amount of ways, but i didnt realize the car was in on it too. Wow, that sucks. I need to pay better attention, no pun intended.
Not at all. Back to that educating the public bit.
I'm not a tech wiz, but I do know my way around basic functions of a computer. If i have no* idea how it works or what it's capable of, how are people who know next to nothing supposed to figure it out?
Well, shit. This explains a lot. But also, what chucklehead thought that was a good idea.
I know, now that you mention it, I vaguely remember something about how they didn't think it should be kept only by some corps or something. Which is commendable but at the same time, ugh.
I have no problem with everyone being able to use it ,but there should have been an introductory period, if nothing else. Jeeze.
