Our retarded system blunders on

A friend of wife had to keep one of her kids home today due to bowel movement issues. Result, now all 5 of her kids are barred from school for 2 weeks and need a covid test before being allowed back to school. Her doctor has no time, the covid testing center doesn't answer the phone nor answers emails, impossible to get a hold off. She is pissed, never went anywhere, been careful all the time and now this.

Btw runny noses are back on the list to throw kids out of school, schools will be empty soon lol. We just had a huge dump of snow, chaos this morning, buses late. (One got stuck near our house, not plowed yet) Yet if you decided to keep your kids home, instead of stuck on a bus in the snow, you are now required to get a covid test and isolate for 2 weeks. The stupidity has no end.

Anyway, more reinforcement it was the best choice to stick to online learning. What's going on in schools is even worse. Unfortunately my kids both get new teachers, again. 4 teachers in a year. My oldest's teacher is not allowed to teach anymore (wants to, but officially retired and has 'used up' his quota of teaching days, a shame, he's a good one) and my youngest's teacher should have been replaced weeks ago (expecting a baby any time now)

This fucking mess needs to end. Guess I get to rant some more while waiting for the ad covering the post quick reply button to F off :)
