We got a positive test at work. We are Teleworking/quarantine for 2 weeks. [View all]

I work very closely with this person. I’m their direct supervisor.

They are shutting down our building for a deep clean. Just got a call from my boss - we are staying home for 2 weeks.

Was able to get a test tomorrow at Patient First. 2-4 day wait. Got one for my daughter too. Waiting for her doctor to call me back to see if she should get th test and if the doc knows where we can get a rapid test.
My wife is out of town tending to medical crisis with her folks. No idea what we will do if I’m positive.

That's probably just an organizational thing underpants Sep 2020 #13
