I’m not crazy, am I?

My housemate has Covid. They didn't know until late last night, so accidentally exposed everyone in the house. That's not their fault, it's all cool. I go out last night and buy and take a Covid test. It's negative, but the last time I had Covid, my at home test read negative until I was super fucked up and it was obvious anyway. So I don't exactly trust it. So like, I told my boss that I was exposed to Covid and wanted to know what the policies are. He basically said, “yeah cool, come in and get tested after work.

My housemate has Covid. They didn't know until late last night, so accidentally exposed everyone in the house. That's not their fault, it's all cool.

I go out last night and buy and take a Covid test. It's negative, but the last time I had Covid, my at home test read negative until I was super fucked up and it was obvious anyway. So I don't exactly trust it.

So like, I told my boss that I was exposed to Covid and wanted to know what the policies are. He basically said, “yeah cool, come in and get tested after work. Just sanitize your desk.” My supervisor, who sits like 3 feet away, has a child in the hospital. If she gets it, her kid could die. I bring that up and he says “yeah, but are you symptomatic right now?”

I worked it out that I'll go buy a test, take it, and then send him the result. I'm going to send a picture from elsewhere that's a positive, because I really don't want to get anyone, in particular my direct supervisor and her children, sick. I'm not crazy for doing this, right? Like, his negligence is out of line and unbelievable.

Update: He now wants me to come in and take another test in person. This is beyond ridiculous.

My fucking boss
