Yeah Universities are kicking college students from the dorms and teaching online for the rest of the semester here. Waiting for the rest of the schools to follow if e-learning is available. Husband’s office is asking to see who could work from home as well.
Missouri’s big cities also have canceled all events of 1,000 people or more.
The PE in Missouri is one location at a huge conference hall at a hotel so I’m waiting to hear what NCEES is going to do with the test being 37 days away...I saw the website but know that can change daily.

I warned a good friend of mine against a weekend trip to Manila (Philippines) with his family. Idiot went anyway. Got off the plane to learn that Manila has been locked down. He can still leave, but is planning to stay until Monday night because Dad reasons: "I paid for this, so we're just going to avoid people but still do everything we had planned."
F____er better not ask to stay at my house for his layover on the way back.

I thought you worked at the airport? I would think that would be open... well at least until TPTB finally cease commercial air traffic.
Downtown was really empty this morning! Work hasn't mandated WFH policies yet but I expect it will happen within the next week.
Yup. We received our WFH email last night.
I like the new avatar! Seems even more diabolical
We were told to bring our laptops home every night just in case we move in that direction. I fully expect it to happen by next week.
haha Thanks. Just messing around in the mafia thread.I like the new avatar! Seems even more diabolical

I plan to take my computer, and possibly my two additional monitors, home with me today. Just in case...

Kids are now on 2 week spring breaks and assuming the ones in college won’t go back to finish spring semester... therefore everyone needs food for extra people at home that wasn’t planned for and the grocery stores look like it’s the day before thanksgiving at 6am on a Friday....
I thought I would get a jump on a few staples like potatoes/ rice/ beans this morning before work but that shit was gone....
I know where the elk hang out up at Rocky Mountain national park - looks like I may not need to get a tag from the government this year after all...
Can you skin a buck? Run a trout line?

We've been giving the option to work from home if it doesn't impact your work, but it's not mandatory. They are trying to limit the number of people on the facility. So if you're just doing "computer work" you can do that from home. People doing manufacturing are working here at full capacity. In engineering, people running tests or building test articles are required to be here, but you could do CAD and calcs from home. Our customer service and tech support will be allowed to work from home, but first IT needs to setup some additional remote capabilities to our customer service systems. Etc Etc
So yesterday I told the IT guys that this has happened 2-3 years back. Can you please look into that ticket to see what the resolution was. They said it was some other issue. Two guys tried with no results. Was contacted today by the next level up guy. Told him about the past issue. He looked up the solution and It worked. So I wasted all of yesterday for no reason.
