Well, it finally happened

General
Working customer service during a pandemic in a store that refuses to require masks was bound to lead to this at some point. But I finally wound up catching Covid; symptoms started a while ago and it took forever to be able to get an accurate test because of backed up waiting lists. But I'm isolating for the time being, and I went through the worst symptoms already and they're behind me, save for a lingering cough. Hoping that filing for an extension of paid leave at work gets approved (which it should) and just gonna try to ride the last bits of this out. Thanking god I'm vaccinated as well, since it most definitely helped to make this more like a lingering cold than anything else. Still, gonna have to wait a few days and see what happens from here, but fingers crossed I'll be okay.

Huge bummer, but I'm glad to hear you're feeling pretty ok for the most part. Hang in there and wishing you the quickest of recoveries!

Thank you kindly! I've been on the mend pretty steadily, and the only lingering symptom is getting less troublesome by the day. ^^
My sister is a librarian and got it at work though she is thrice Pfizered, she took it home and two weeks before Christmas her vaxxed husband and three sons were all sick with it. Sis's fam took 10 days for the doc to give them the all clear and their symptoms were like a seasonal allergy but with positive covid tests, we had a lovely Christmas together. You should be totally fine thanks to that vaccination. I lost three friends that were not vaxxed and it hangs on my conscience daily. Be cool.

Sorry to hear that you lost friends to the pandemic; seems like just about everyone has lost someone they knew in one way or another. But thank you for the well wishes, and I'm glad you managed to have a good Christmas with the family. Be cool yourself, and stay safe!
