@luckytran@med-mastodon.com“NOTE: We expect the CDC to rescind the 5 day isolation period in the very near future. Once the CDC guidance is updated, employees will no longer be eligible for Covid pay for any period of isolation.”
Employers were ready for the CDC change so they could end sick pay.
@luckytran don't bury the lede of 14 days of covid leave, period, for your entire lifetime
@xarph @luckytran Three times only so make good use of those 4 and a half days you'll get because you will be getting it again.
@luckytran I am embarrassed to say I didn’t see that coming but it now makes a hell of a lot of sense. We are just horrible to human beings right now aren’t we.
@GeorgiaOnMyMind @luckytran gotta keep those trains running on time.
@luckytran Eligible for three leaves with a lifetime maximum of 14 days? WTF? This is existential threat territory. What do we have to do, violent revolution?
@luckytran three periods of Covid leave for up to 14 days total 
@luckytran Can you say "regulatory capture" boys and girls?
@luckytran So how is this supposed to square with the refrain of “it’s just the flu”? Yeah, I know, everything is a lie and we are just slaves.
@luckytran
Follow the money.
@luckytran This is a Town government in New York, no less? How spiteful must one be to do this without even the promise of financial profits?
My favourite part of that - she says with dire sarcasm - is the part about how employees are not eligible for sick leave if their kid's home with COVID.
There is no milk of human kindness which these ghouls won't turn into rancid cazu martzu.

@luckytran malignant capitalism
@luckytran ...when you go the 'extra mile' to bold-n-underline the word 'lifetime' when talking about a period of time, that's when you know you're dealing with the OGs...
@luckytran efficiency is when you offload costs on the little guys
@luckytran As an EU person, the concept of "you're only allowed to be sick this many times" never ceases to surprise me. It's as if some countries haven't realised that you 1. Can't decide when you get sick and 2. Are far more likely to repeatedly spread disease around the workplace when people aren't allowed to be home when sick. Insane tactic tbh.

Who wrote this memo -- Covid-19 itself?
@luckytran if only people were actually only likely to get covid thrice in a lifetime
@eniko @luckytran
I mean, how many before you're in any case no longer able to work 
Especially if you don't rest after each infection
@sabik @eniko @luckytran 3 clearly. or 'not our problem'.
@luckytran Im glad the new California mandatory sick leave isnt predicated on anything the CDC says then (or even covid-specific)
@luckytran Right wing people making a fuss about a “great reset”, which would be killing people to end overpopulation.
Then proceed to kill people so they have to pay less.
Literally any accusation is an admission with these people.
@luckytran do they get normal sick leave still? Or was there no sick leave? My employer had access to a pot of money from the state for covid sick leave for a while so we got extra sick leave in the early years and it didn’t cost the school, but that’s ended so we can’t take “covid leave” but if we’re sick with covid we just use our normal sick leave now.
Also 4 hours leave for a shot would not have covered my side effects! I’ve missed from 1-3 days for each.
@luckytran this is a city government in New York state, yet you're acting like it's some corporate overlord. Hmm, almost like you're not concerned with reality, just fear mongering to gain personal attention.
Sad.
@luckytran Trading lives for profits again. What's new.
