She had a workman in her house non essential to most but was to her.
He had gone to work knowing he had symptoms and a test.
He then found out next day he was positive and his management team rang my dm to apologise and said they weren't aware until the positive result. Not that he'd had even had a test or felt ill.

So that was Thursday. She got call Friday. So her 10 days should have started Thurs.

She's said no way should she be expected to stay in. Yes she'll stay away from my DGM. but she can't be expected not to shop etc.

Now she has a partner who is still going to work. He could shop. But aparanlty he did his years of shopping when he was single!

So she's been to pet shop, range, asda, wilko, corner shop, tesco, home bargains, b and m, wickes, veg shop. Walk to the park. Petrol station to get her partner fags.
And this is daily at least 2 of the above listed. She doesn't drive so has walked to these places
Examples.. Range for a canvas picture for her lounge as she's bored of hers.
Corner shop..fancied some Maltesers
Wickes. See if they had any nice towel rails for her bathroom

Gone to the communal shed to sort out her Xmas Decs because she didn't when packed away so she could book a refuse collection.

Then today she said she's had a headache for 2 days. Feels sick and upset stomach. Which I know can be symptoms.
When I said she should test and isolate. She said she's done enough isolating!

She bloody hasn't, 2 days she's stayed in that's it!

I'm so infuriated by her

Wasn't track and trace that notified her.

The workman was there about an hour in a small room and she was hovering a lot watching over him made him 2 coffees . He had a mask I belive.

I’d tear her a new one, OP. Really, really lay into her and tell her you don’t want to see her for the foreseeable.

How does she think the rest of us cope with being cooped up repeatedly? What makes her special?

She’s selfish and dangerous.

This is why we're in the fucking mess we are! No one will take responsibility for their own part in this!
