Morning all hands meeting - we all need to cross train more so we can pick up slack since on any given day "it feels like" half the staff is out. Don't clean the air or anything folks, just cross train. Sure this will work

lehighvalleynews.com/environment-sc… It's fine. We don't need birds anyway. Totally zero chance this goes human to human with any efficacy either 🤡 just don't look up. Or down. Or left or right for that matter. In fact, let's just all agree to not look anywhere.

What investment vehicle is safe from impending economic collapse by tarrifs? Asking for a friend or a couple million

Surprised i didn't see anyone make this joke yesterday ...

Co-worker unprompted talking about how their multiple coldemort infections have left them feeling "dumber". Others agree, someone even says " yeah it seems like every day we're finding out it does more damage than we knew" Me: Staring at everyone's bare face...

"masking doesn't work and you're increasing rare" That's why 3 additional people in my lab have started wearing a mask every day since the winter and still are today ... Y'all, some people are noticing who's sick and who isn't still.

It's August and the lab management just said "thanks to everyone being flexible we know there's a lot of sickness going around" .... Maybe ... Maybe that's normal y'all
