Statewide, Ohio is about 45% fully vaccinated, and my county is about 47%. Both of those are below the national average of 48.5%. Jesus.
You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

Our county is at 61.9% and the state of MA is at 62.7%.

I may be a bad person ... the rest of the office is coming back and one, a new staff person, arrived to find that the docking station for her computer isn't there. I have it. Mine died and that one was the only one in the office that matched my old one. I'm not saying that to anyone in the office, but I figured it's safe to 'fess up here. (Also - all our computers and docking stations have locks on them ... the one I snitched we don't have the code for, but it's OK - someone previously CUT the cable securing the docking station.)

My county is at 80% having one dose and 75% two doses. Which is great except when I think “that’s still 1 in 5 people who haven’t been vaccinated!!” And it’s about the same whether you sort 16 and up or 12 and up, surprisingly!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Given the conditions you've been working under the past year and a half, I don't blame you, Todd.

Given how they have shafted you in many ways, Toddson, I'm gonna say NOT a bad person and that equipment was appropriately prioritized (by you) to support the person who has been in the office this whole time.
In other news, the wifi adapter that I ordered fixed my desktop connectivity issues, so now I really do need to call Comcast and cancel my service and I am not looking forward to that onerous task.

"the businesses with signs like “no mask needed if you’re vaccinated and we aren’t checking we trust you!”
We went to the zoo on Sunday morning for A Big Thing, and the number of people wandering around unmasked was unsettling. We were fully masked, because yeah we're vaccinated, but we don't trust random people of the public.
I now find zombie fiction wherein people pull together and look out for everyone to be laughably quaint.

What shrift said. Also, your secret is safe with us.
Good luck cancelling the castle, shrift!
Current reorg is going slowly and sometimes apparently backwards, so that's fun. One more meeting today...

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Work secrets are safe here. Heck, I’ve got the government website for jobs open. Two tabs because there are two jobs I would consider.
And I’m like “trust?!? That is so long gone….I have no trust in the American public to do anything good or necessary or right!”
It me.

Right? For the good of humanity? Cute. Avoid the plague? We don’t do that here.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Almost no one is wearing masks here anymore, and yeah, our cases look to be ticking up. So that's nice.
