Capitalism is absurd

mousmeI'm still symptomatic and testing positive, but according to the Government of Ontario I am A-Okay to go back to work and spread Covid to my coworkers because my symptoms are "improving," I have no fever, and I have no new symptoms since yesterday. All I have to do is wear a mask, and problem solved, I guess!
I think my supervisor and boss are both aware of how ridiculous this requirement is, but they have to tell me to come back to work because them's the rules. FFS. This is the height of absurdity, and I will never not be mad at all of our governments for selling out public health in the name of "the economy." HOW WELL IS YOUR ECONOMY DOING NOW, MOTHERFUCKERS? HUH?
Anyway, I am annoyed. Hopefully this won't set me back too badly. I will be working for the next... *counts* 14 days straight because I agreed to switch weekends with a coworker last month, and now those chickens are coming home to roost. Alas. I needed the weekend off last month, so I can't bring myself to regret it totally, but it's still going to be really difficult, especially if I'm still sick.
And somewhere in there I have to pack up the house. *weeps*
In other annoying news, I've given myself a second-degree burn on my right ring finger and knuckle due to an ill-timed oil splash on the stove. Thanks, I hate it.
I'm sure I can get it all done, because there's nothing quite like adrenaline-fueled panic packing, but it's probably going to suck out loud.
All right. I have a video appointment to get to, and I need to order groceries as well. Thank goodness for grocery deliveries, they are an absolute godsend. Catch you on the flip side, friends!
