It's been a rough year and a half without a doubt. It seems as though there's no end in sight.

They've already talked to their program directors in regard to FMLA and were denied due to the up-coming expected surges likely this Summer. (Several were threatened in having their licenses revoked which I don't even think is legal, then again anything goes during a Pandemic)

In-person schooling this Summer without a mask mandate sounds like a nightmare. I too, hope I live long enough to piss on most of their graves.
