A woman that works in my cubicle called in yesterday but at work today. Boss said this morning at

pre work meeting to be sure to wear masks in common areas, that illness going around. I asked, "Covid? I need to be more diligent if so.". He said, act as if, but they did not know. I specifically and clearly told him, give me a heads up if covid. He acknowledged he would. The gal that was sick came in late and never faced me, all the while toward her computer, away from me. I put my mask on. (Not wearing when in our space so we can be heard on phones). Afternoon I get my afternoon coffee, and take mask off, look at co worker and she is masked. I drink coffee, then mask up again. Finally I ask her what sick she had. Her friend in another office across the way tested positive around 2 this afternoon about when my coworker put the mask on. This is a couple hours later I ask about illness having her call out yesterday. She is looking flushed. Boss will not let her go home. She gets tested tomorrow morning. She and her daughter were sick all weekend and coworker said only an upset stomach now though she looked flushed to me. In a little space, but now she is masked. My boss said nothing, though he was well aware.

I am a little bit pissed. Covid looks different on a 60 yr old smoker than these kids I am around.
