I got symptoms about 3 days later then went down hill quickly, ended up off work for 3 weeks.
I've gone back on reduced hours
My wife also caught it and had 2 weeks off work, she is immune compromised due to arthritis medication
We didn't qualify for the covid payments because of having over 10k in liquid assets
We both got put on the anti viral medicine but are still struggling.
I've lost my energy which is really bad timing as I've got my old Ford in pieces
Wife has a ridiculous cough she can't get rid of
So while it might be back to normal for most for some it's still very real unfortunately, so it ****es me off a little when I hear people saying covid is over, nothing too worry about now
Rant over
Covid will never be over as it will be around with us for years to come, the last few years just bought time to develop immunization for the population and people will have to be cautious & vigilant.
To be honest I think your boss is an A.s.s for his attitude towards you but unfortunately this is the state of the world these days where most people only care of themselves.
Wish you and your wife a speedy recovery.

Cheers
