Control is a big deal for me. There was a time I thought I was responsible for turning the crank that makes the world go round. Took me a long time to learn I'm the only person I'm responsible for. That no matter what I believe I can NOT control the world. Current circumstances in the world are stirring up old demons. There is so much out of any of our control with idiots in charge of life changing decisions. I know most of the rest of the world is also struggling with uncertainty and lack of control. Still.... I'm unnerved and scared.
FWIW, my plan if the idiot in the governor's mansion lifts restrictions I'm still staying home, wearing gloves and mask if I have to go out. My other fear is that the idiots I work for will force me to go back into the field before it's safe. I already spoke to my direct supervisor and told him this virus could kill me. I know he'll work with me, but senior management is a bunch of morons focused on money.
