    Started my 2 week quarantine Friday. Couple fellas contracted the Corvid within the shipping dept. so we’ve all been sent home. Been in contact with the 2 affected and they’re feeling OK but they have families so staying at apartments/hotels to keep everyone safe.

    Docs don’t wanna test me yet, but I’m in contact with them every few days. Hopefully no symptoms arise.

    Stay safe out there Ya Bums and do everything you can to protect you and yours!

    Thanks Brian and Joe. Please keep us updated.

    Brian, I have little faith in what we are being told and I too am skeptical. But no doubt some bad shit is going on.

    @WNYTONY I would love to hear your perspective on this.

    All well here but I'm going to work every day as I work at the Health Department and it's our show. Thankfully we are only at 8 positives in our county but we still haven't tested 300 people out of our available 400 tests.
    We received new policy last week that even if we have positives in our staff they are to contact the EOC nurse and continue to report until they show symptoms as they need the people. So I got that going for me. Friday's meeting was to discuss our mass mortality plan which was due to the state so they were contacting coroners and funeral homes to gauge capacity and we don't have any deaths yet. NYC is crazy and they are applying it to the rest of the state, but they are beyond funeral homes and talking about refrigerated semis and hockey arenas.
    From the figures I get it's spreading fast and we're not to the surge yet. And then they say it should go into decline but it will still be around so it's going to affect everyday life for a while I think. Social distancing and hand washing will be around for a bit but many of us practice that anyways.
    Wife is working from home and so far all the kids are good. And I think I have just enough cigars to weather the storm so I'm just trying my best not to get it, just like everyone else.
    Stay safe all you Bums and thanks @Old Smokey for starting this thread.
    No cigar until you get a par - birdie if it's a scramble !

    I’m feeling fine brother, thanks for asking and hoping you and yours are well also. Along with all of our BUM Families!


    Spoke to my Boss last night and he’s received word from the CDC that all of us that got sent home for quarantine are clear to work again as long as we aren’t showing any types of symptoms and my Doctor seems to agree.

    I’ve been taking my temperature twice a day and all seems good. Thankfully none of the common symptoms have arisen thank GOD!! So I’ll be heading back on Monday. The boss and our safety manager were both back on Thursday.

    Still need to be vigilant and wear masks and gloves. Dealing with deliveries and pickups all day Im right in the crosshairs of this damn thing.
