I see 12 minutes between relevant Freehold's post—the one about receiving the blue-ray early and the one about getting depressed.
Not for me:
So, computer wonks, how could that be happening?

I think the bigger picture is Freehold was clearly replaced with a reptoid if he's less than full on excited for a new Gundam blu-ray.
Oh no, it was a long enough film, they just went into nauseating detail with respect to how cyber newtypes were created and what happened to those who...failed...along the way.
The titans are truly the third most disgusting group in Gundam history.

Our local Walmart was shut down. apparently someone with covid came in without a mask mind you and infected 30 people. They had to close it down the employee are having to stay home for 2 weeks (best case) You know Walmart won't be paying sick leave or anything. They are doing a deep clean the opening back up. They actually might have opened up again already.
We still have like half the people running around with no precautions. SIGH...
Why should you not park in a witch's parking spot? Because if you do, you will be toad.
Happened to me once

You know what else is annoying? Coming in to work after my two days off, seeing notes left for the auditor the last two nights saying "Don't do the laundry tonight, we'll do it tomorrow morning," and finding a big pile of laundry waiting for me with no note saying not to do it. So, I have to assume that I am supposed to do it.
I think they actually legitimately hate you. like sounds like they saved it for you to do.

There's not enough for it to have been saved for all three days, so they've done some. And it's all sheets, so someone's been doing towels. But yeah, I don't know if they hate me, or if he is just so bad at it that they don't want him to touch it.
So bad they don't want him to touch it eh? maybe you should take lessons from him?

From what I've heard over the years. Being a reasonably ok night auditor puts you leagues above the rest.
Yeah. It makes you wonder when a manager says "You're one of the best night auditors we've ever had" and you're only putting in like 20% effort most of the time. Like, what the f@!$ were the others doing?From what I've heard over the years.

Well I know the guy that covers for me does practically nothing except for the things that he will get in severe trouble for. Like he checks in guest. Doesn't do practically any of the paper work but that is also partially managements fault.
Apparently that sort of thing is very common the hotel (that focuses on the holidays if you know what I mean) near us has had that problem before. Guest have came over to us because they couldn't find anyone to check them in. A house keeper that left them for us told me that their night auditor would nap all night. Sweet gig for as long as it last I guess.
An adventure in buying a bookcase.
Love that one.
If it hadn't been your first night I could see it. Like I don't personally do it but I know when I was getting trained I was told as long as one person who knows what their doing is here it's ok to leave. Granted that is a rare occurrence. Probably on like last set of training days. 90 minutes is excessive tho. I think they meant it as a have a person go grab something and bring it back for like lunch or something. It hasn't really came up since. I don't know why he be lying when he that obvious though. Leaveing the desk unattended however... yeah. surprised he didn't get fired. I suppose tho its easy to get away with. Guest will come by like such and such was gone for 2 hours and I waited yadda yadda. Check cameras person be gone for like 5 minutes. We all know that happens so he could just be like. I was just in the bathroom only gone for a few minutes that person crazy. I would believe him without further proof.
I don't remember if there were cameras in that lobby. It was a motel (I know I wrote hotel earlier, whatever), so the lobby was locked down at night. No one got in, and all business was done through a window with a slot under it to pass credit cards and keys through. I know there were some cameras outside, but not sure if any inside.
Motels seem to have much lower expectations of their employees going by the one next to us.

Somehow that really summed up my feelings on the matter. Oh and I meant to put 30 employees specifically. I doubt they know how many random people.

It's become obvious that what I brought home from the doctor's office wasn't a vaccine reaction, but an honest-to-goodness cold, giving me my second cold in two months while in an anti-viral lockdown.
That's the thing that just baffles me: I know that pre-COVID I'd burn my 10 sick days of the year by August with a whole host of mild-but-irritating infections. Other than the back-to-back flus in 2018 and 2019, I haven't been "bedridden" sick in over a decade. It's always just, "Here's a 99.5˚F fever, a headache, some lethargy, and maybe a bit of a sore throat or post-nasal drip just to make you uncomfortable."
Not even coughing, sneezing, congestion, or anything else.
So I've got another one of those colds, and I have to figure that their transmission mechanism is something that bypasses the COVID protections. I'm thinking surface contact. My reading indicates that while COVID-19 can survive on surfaces for quite a while, actual surface-to-person transmission hadn't been documented as of the CDC's update on July 10. So I haven't been meticulous about, for example, washing off my groceries before putting them away and so forth.
Ah, well. Recover. Wash my hands more often. Say "Feh" a lot.
Stoopid pesky viruses!
EDIT: Found another CDC article from October 21 that says, "Spread from touching surfaces is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads," reinforcing my idea that I'm being too careless with surface contact because COVID-19 isn't a "surface transmission" virus, but other viruses obviously are.

I got Days Gone this weekend, it's basically Grand Theft Auto with motorcycles and zombies.
So far it's been a lot of fun!
Tracing of covid infections in new zeeland apperantly pointed to people getting the virus from elevator buttons and a trash can.
Yeah, including those two cases I've heard anecdotal evidence of maybe half a dozen surface transmissions out of over 42 million cases. That's a rate near enough to 0 that I don't particularly concern myself with it.
But obviously, I should be more careful about washing up after putting the groceries away...

You might also want to observe how many chair arms and counters you touch at the doctor's office.
My first visit in July was a horror show of unconscious touching of surfaces by various body parts, including putting my own book down on a table, and then picking it up again, covered with whatever biofilm had laid itself down over the day.

Well, GothBard (and hence by extension the rest of the family) came back negative for COVID.
So it *is* just a stupid cold. Hooray?
I ran out of gas on my bike, right under a zombie horde on hording on a train bridge. Fortunately there was a tow truck nearby with a gas can so I snuck over, grabbed it and quietly filled my bike up and then gunned it as fast as I could!
I then found a town with a house on the edge which happened to have both a sledgehammer, hatchet, and lawnmower blade just sitting around waiting for me.
Unfortunately I could only grab one.
Fortunately there was enough zombies lurking in town I was able to use them all (I also found a board I nailed some nails to just for good measure) as the hatchet breaks quite easily and I got my lawnmower blade stuck in some zombie's head.
My favorite was the hatchet as the sledgehammer is too slow when you have five or more zombies ganging up on you.

It does make you wonder how well this could work in NYC. It certainly SHOULD, but the Manhattan grid plan could be a challenge to configure. It might be easier to implement in Brooklyn and Queens.

I've learned important lessons about zombie hordes tonight, and what not to do at them.
