I hope you all have lots of equity in the business. Otherwise, you’re all nuts.
Even then, not actively discouraging sick people yo work from home or take time off when they share office space with people undergoing chemo is reckless.
At our all hands meeting Friday, only he and the receptionist working several floors below him were still in the office.
Ordinarily we are a pretty gung-ho culture. People come to work sick. People take half days even doing chemo. People work 10 hour days because “product needs polish”. Yet no one is willing to take the risk of catching the virus, then bringing it home to our families.
Maybe if this was earlier in the crisis, it would be different but it is too late to not panic.
