Boss trying to get me to go in with Covid.

Hi guys, First post here, so basically I've worked for a metal foundry for 3 years now and been nothing but loyal and hard working as i really enjoy the job . It's only me and the owner who works there and we've actually usually got a good relationship. However I've been off ill for the last 3 days and actually tested positive last night so I'm currently awaiting a pcr test. I informed my boss this and he was trying to get me to go in regardless, he's high risk anyway due to having a partial lung removal, I wasn't comfortable with this and after checking government guidelines I have been informed that I should stay home if I have symptoms. I have been on my sofa barely able to move and sweating ungodly amounts so much so that i havent been able to sleep next to my amazingly…

declined an interview because I felt something was off and is also far from my house. He gave me a missed call and texted me this.

Having a bit of an antiwork month, realizing how indoctrinated I am

I have been sitting at home doing nothing for about 3 weeks now, and will sit at home doing nothing for another 3 weeks. In the second week of February I was evicted. It was in a state I'm not from that has management companies that view an eviction as an automatic do-not-rent-to, even though I was offering up to 5 months advance rent. I couldn't do much about it, so I dropped my in-person college classes, packed all my shit, and moved back home to Chicago. I'm currently crashing in a friend's spare room while I wait for my new place to be ready next week. I have a job offer that doesn't start until 3/21, so I'm just vibing at home and I've never been happier. I wake up at 11, walk the dog, work out, do some creative writing, and play a bunch of video games. This…

Is big brother watching?

Just started a new fully remote job which relies heavily on other people moving projects forward, and so a fair bit of downtime on a daily basis. I would like to know if there is any way I can see if my work laptop has any corporate spying software installed to monitor clicks or mouse movement etc… I'm fairly computer literate but I'm not a programmer or anything and certainly don't want to poke the beast by making it look like I'm checking. Could some more tech savvy people give some advice on what I could do?

This is why we need to work. They need to protect this wheel no matter what. They bet and we are the ones paying. SOON, this cycle will not just break but will be completely reversed. We are the ones paying from the very start, and it is them that really owe from us.

Red Bull have just announced 50 million per year contract to Max Verstappen which will no doubt be written off as a tax dodge for advertising so ends up stiffing the people through tax and proves that this corporation can spend -4 year deal?)-200 million dollars on ADVERTISING , AND claim it on tax

Just watched the State of the Union address. What’s with all this “We have to stop WFH, and get back to the office.” BS?

I’ve heard a few politicians start saying this. The mayor of NYC said it was for all the service works who didn’t have anyone eating at their restaurants. Probably more for the fossil fuel Execs who want people buying gas to drive to work and real estate moguls. Are people actually buy that returning to the office us to help the little guys?
