[QUOTE="Tanis143, post: 3710953, member: 43724"] That is kinda the problem with her employer. Its almost too laid back. The "management" consists of the owner of the business and one other lady who acts as the HR. Other than that there is no management. Don't get me wrong, for the most part my wife loves her job, but the personnel management is severely lacking. Between the ongoing drama (and from what my wife tells me its worse than highschool up there) and the lack of covid discipline I'm surprised any work gets done. But, as I said, my wife loves the actual job and she is very good at it. So far today OTC meds have helped with most of the symptoms. Taking Robitussin DM for the cough, Tylenol for the fever and aches, EmergenC with elderberry for vitamin C and other vitamins, and an albuterol inhaler for help with breathing. Pulse ox has been good and wife is already feeling better, so will just have to see how fast this works through her system. For myself the chest congestion has eased up without medication (though I have been vaping an eliquid that has some menthol in it, just not sure if I can count that as "medication" lol), no other symptoms have cropped up yet. Step-son and I are going to get tested tomorrow morning. I hope its not positive (for obvious reasons) because its a mandatory 14 day out of work. I have plenty of vacation time to cover it, but rather spend that for ... well.... vacation. All in all I'm not too worried. Yes, I have some concerns that it might get worse for one and/or all of us. As long as the symptoms do not get any worse, I'll just be happy to be done with it. As I said before, I sincerely hope this omicrong (omnicron?) variant wave is the one that provides enough herd immunity through contraction that covid burns itself out. [/QUOTE]
