No. I am no ones property. You would have to make me your property or kill me, if I don't take you out first for even trying to place me in bondage.

The employers will decide- I’m on two days - another crew diff days - that way we not all on each other’s face.
This is why testing is so important and is also one of the main reasons Trump has failed the American people. We are months behind where we should be and unfortunately many of our fellow citizens will pay for Trumps incompetence with their lives.

Trump should be deeply ashamed.
He’s not setting a good example by refusing to be tested himself even though he has been exposed. He’s not isolating himself either. He really has handled this very poorly on multiple levels.
I shut down my office yesterday and set everyone up to work from home. We're well stocked enough at our house to ride this out for as long as it takes.
We're self-quarantining (effectively) so that we don't bring it into the house. My MIL lives with us, and my own mother will likely be joining the party this weekend. Trying to keep the people we love safe. That's the ONLY thing on my mind when it comes to this thing.
So some who have been exposed may have to keep working or people may die, but on the other hand an exposed person who keeps working may pass on the virus that will kill grandma. How does that work?
The pickle tosser at McD’s may not have the luxury of choosing. (And no, $15 an hour is not the solution, nor the topic of this thread.)

Hmmm... you’re resisting and some guys pay extra for that.
If I knew I was exposed, sure. But how would I know that?

Yes and yes. It is complicated, nothing is easy. And it is not even what I would call bad yet.
