Quote HistoryQuoted: Tell the new job schedule you have preplanned commitments, yo! Mah wife is also scared of the wu-tang flu. She wasn’t thrilled that I’d be at an event, drinking with all my buddies while likely not wearing a mask or social distancing.  Speaking of, is the hotel imposing any limitations? How’s all that crap gonna work? |

No worries, totally understand individual circumstances being a thing for folks. It will be in a gigantic conference center room, limited to (i think) 50% capacity, which we likely won't meet anyway. [aka, we won't be packed in there.] |
