It's the same way Mesoamerica was fucked over by diseases spread by the Spanish. <cite>Questionmarktarius posted [p:934993152] in CDC's tip ...

No, but to put out a blanket statement that people should work from home, when a grand number of jobs do not allow for that is just dense. For some folks this would ruin them. --- I should not walk so a child may live. <cite>InTheEyesOfFire posted [p:934994654] in CDC's tip ...

Literally is a relevant suggestion for a majority of workers. Should they stop releasing all pronouncements since everything can't be applicable to every single American? Can't tell people to wash their hands to prevent the spread of germs during flu season, since that isn't applicable to amputees and will offend them! --- New York Knicks, New York Jets, New York Yankees. <cite>SK8T3R215 posted [p:934995453] in CDC's tip ...

For some folks this would ruin them. Seriously. Think about how this makes ME feel. Those people who can work from home don't deserve any type of suggestions for being safe. Like, why even suggest something if it doesn't apply to ALL? They also mentioned potentially shutting down schools....UHHH how does this help those of us who don't go to school?

Everyone screaming about this can shut down all criticism of it by pointing to a single example of a person who currently has the option to work from home, but would voluntarily choose an expensive commute and cramped cubicle UNTIL a government body advises them to work from home instead.

Strider102 02/28/20 12:41:09 PM #48:	Hmmm I should try this. I'll buy my employees walkie talkies and while I'm sitting on my couch sipping some coffee I tell them their quota for the day. If they fuck up I announce I'm writing them up, and if need be say "You're fired, walk yourself out, please." Then they announce "Bruh, we're working out of our homes because of coronavirus." At that moment I realize we're all probably out of a job because we have to physically be there to run the machines to do our job.
