My Company has 15,000 employees so it was inevitable. Only a few worked in my building and not on my floor/department... so far.

My mom is an insane worrier and she's driving me nuts through this. She keeps sending me all of these doom and gloom stats and stories about the virus and ensuring that I am taking precautions and such, but honestly it is stressing me out and making my mental state worse than it already is given the circumstances. Every time I talk to her I get these (seemingly) psychosomatic symptoms and I worry that I have the virus. I know she's worried, but she's not doing me any favors by stressing me out.

You use the term "that seated naked black guy with a huge dick" like this is something you, and your friends, are very familiar with, but normal people have no idea what you are talking about.
Oh come on...i think you were actually the one who first sent this around

How would you know anything about normal people?

Mothers are there for this.
I'm (almost) 58 and my mom never forgets to ask me if I eat enough.
God bless moms.

I'm on conference calls from 9a through 1:30p without a piss break. Then I have another from 3-4. Apparently I don't have to get any actual work done. OH WAIT! No, MegaCorp still expects the WENUS to be serviced even if I have 5-6 hours of conference calls hosted by corporate busy bodies.

You sold your soul for more money and fewer charity dinners. Also, you're an executive, you just get up and walk away from a call. You're probably online shopping all call anyway. No one will even notice.

How many of those 5.5 hours are actually productive?

If you don't count posting on StyFo...then maybe one.

This is not only new and intense **** but it's constantly changing. I'm actually not upset to be weathering this storm working for MegaCorp as they have a host of people that just monitor all the new **** coming out from the CDC, CMS, etc., write the P&P, get legal to vet it, then push it out to the field. That said much of this is very repetitive and you also know what a cluster any Zoom with more than a dozen people becomes, i.e. the same damn question getting asked multiple times, people needing parts repeated as they were not listening, etc.

Do you guys wash your groceries you get from the store? I'm going insane trying to wash everything and I might be overthinking all of this into oblivion. Also I read so many different things about how long this **** survives for on surfaces. A few hours to 9 days. Wtf, I am going insane.
