Holy shit

Edit: PLEASE put them on blast

Edit 2: this belongs in a fucking newspaper

I want to desperately, mostly because I feel like my community deserves to know. I’m just worried about any repercussions. I feel like this can’t be real. It makes me so angry though, that there is this balance disregard for the partners and customers, that I physically am shaking.

Have you spoken to corporate?

hexedwitch 1 points 3y ago

No I haven’t. Do you have their number on hand? I don’t know it.

OP I know you’re nervous but if they don’t close and disinfect that store ASAP more people will get sick, and some will die.

This is literally a life and death situation. What they’re doing is against the law.

Please do the right thing. Ask to remain anonymous but do it.

THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULDNT TAKE THE LEAVE. THEY DO NOT GUARANTEE YOU A JOB BY THE END

That is not true.

Wait... really?!

I mean, you’re away from work for 30 days. If they need to replace you during that time they will. When you come back, what if you’re declared nonessential? This is them getting ready to let people go before the economy fully crashes

That’s terrifying. I’m reaching out to my GM who set us up with this leave. Hopefully she’ll have some answers about this. Thanks for bringing this to my attention!

I’m worried about being the whistleblower on this one. That might sound stupid, but I am.

If you aren't comfortable raising the issue with your DM or RM, for whatever reason, is there a way to lodge an anonymous complaint with your local health department?

A confirmed COVID-19 case among your crew seems like something your state government would need to be aware of urgently.
