    This was my workplace. Not a breakroom, this pinboard was previously for job-related information. I took this image after we reopened because I found it dystopic, and I have posted it now because I think no one will remember.

    My workplace:

    Re-opened only months after being forced to close

    Is not an essential industry

    Frequently crowded, not retail. Think entertainment.

    Low-paid workers forced to return before it was truly safe and before vaccines were available

    Low-paid workers were drawing unemployment. Most made more on unemployment due to federal support

    Low-paid workers would lose unemployment if they refused to return to their job.

    edit: formatting

    Edit 2: the emoji poster existed before COVID and above it was boring job stuff. When the outdated job stuff was removed, the poster survived. The pinboard has job stuff on it again and the poster remains. It is eternal.
