4. My bosses like me, lots. And seem to get it. They asked me to come back last week, it is an hotel.

I love the job, I love the bosses and I do a really good job. But they get 60 yr old working in a small nonventilated room for over 8 hours with 50-100 or more being in a small space isn't really smart.

So yea me. I told them I thought about it but with numbers spiking it would be stupid. And this week proved it out. You are right. Many of us are going to say no. Because it will be stupid to walk back in that. And it is going to hurt a lot of people. The Republicans literally created this for all of us to live. They literally created this unsafe work environment.
