yup. our public school district was closed last Friday due to transportation shortages. expect more and more services and goods to be delayed as things close due to staff shortages.

this all could have been avoided if everyone got vaccinated. fuck everyone who didn't do their part.

Deja Vu in that I know how it's gonna actually go? Yeah.

Not enough people are gonna listen. But enough will fight back to make it a huge failure. Enough with do the right thing which will hurt the economy. But enough will do the wrong thing that it will make the economy take the hit in vain. We'll be in a worst place on the other end.

You're talking about preventative "official" shutdowns.

These are going to be unplanned closures due to mass sickness / inability to stay open.

Why are there a lack of bus drivers? Is the pay that bad? Are the schools not employing drivers cause of covid?

Ah okay if the pay was better Id just wear a mask. Driving kids to and from school 5 days a week shouldnt be a difficult job. Its like what a 4 hour job at day? Pay would be garbage and I wouldnt blame them for backing out.

my buddy got hired on to be a school bus driver. He was a former glazier (window installer).

The pay is $16/hr and he gets paid for 5 hours a day, but works 7am-9am and 2pm-5pm.

but can't do shit between 9-2 when you factor in commute and etc.

one of the worst jobs ever, basically a "keep busy" job for a secondary income earner

Even if everyone was vaccinated it would only do so much. Omicron all but ignores the vaccine and came from another country. In fact all the major mutations are from outside the US. So the pandemic would still be going on even if we were all vaccinated. Sure there might be somewhat less people getting it, but with Omicron you are still talking about thousands of people every day.

Those are garbage hours. The pay should be equal to as if it was 40 hours a week if youre expected to be free in-between for a part time gig.

The chick fil a I work at just closed the lobby temporarily because a big chunk of employees are sick. Or quit. They just gave me another raise at least, I'm now making 15.10 and get full time hours. Still sucks having to be on the front lines tho.

I'm triple vaxxed of course but I wish my store would go to masks requirements again

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Oh, absolutely. They realize no one in power is going to hold them accountable any more, so it's time to go hog wild.

Like, LOL, one of my friends at work got COVID and ID'd me as a potential close contact to management, and I only know that because she told me: management never said a word. You can't get a test any time within 24-36 hours here in CT right now (and lots of places require a doctor's note), because they drew back on testing after the last wave and have been pretty lethargic about ramping back up.

Maybe, wasn't the case with my family. We all got the same amount of sick regardless.

It's still the smartest thing to do of course, but I do understand how people feel ripped off who just took a third shot and got sick as hell anyway.

Good ole Daddy Capitalism. Gotta keep the money being made for the billionaires.

My favorite part now though is the last of people taking jobs.

At first:
THEY ARE TAKING OUR JOBS

Now:
WHY AIN'T THEY TAKING ANY JOBS

The power of the pawns. Government might not shut things down, but we have the power to do it outselves collectively.
