Is it cold in here?:
Speedy recovery!

Pardon my presumption offering unsolicited advice, but if you haven't already, do get vaccinated once you're clear of this. The research has been done. A case plus a vaccine dose gives far higher antibody levels than just recovering from a case.

I was of the mind to treat the VAX like Windows10 ... let it be out in the wild for a year to allow for others to debug it.

...and now in Health as in IT Life ... Microsoft did an auto patch forcible install, so I got it anyway.

I'm thinking my job will be requiring me to get the VAX now anyway.

of about 125-ish people in the building, there has been 20-24 cases.

The people who spend their lives knowing about vaccines say that if something is going to go wrong, it will turn up within weeks, two months absolute top. I'm pretty paranoid but after doing my own research I was eager to get vaccinated.

Well an elderly lady flipped me off today. I picked up some fast food to take home with my kids in the back seat. Traffic getting into the neighborhood was pretty bad that I had to wait for oncoming traffic to let me through so I could get into my neighborhood. I could see this sedan with said lady trying to merge in with them but since it was bumper to bumper and I have no idea how long she was waiting there, she decided to turn around and go back into the neighborhood (I am guessing to find another way onto the main road). A nice person from the oncoming traffic waved me through and I entered the neighborhood. I was right behind said lady. Normally its a 25mph residential area (there are signs saying the speed limit) and she was going at a crawling 10-15mph. Now I don't think I was riding her tail, I did not roll my window down and yell, and I did not flash my lights. I just followed her as she crawled very slowly up the hill. by the time we crested it she put on her hazard lights and pulled over (I assumed she wanted me to pass, or maybe she was lost and needed to get her bearings) so I went around her. I looked over and she gave me the nastiest face and the the bird to boot! I returned the favor and kept going. I could see in the distance that she came back into the lane and forgot to turn off her hazards. I meant no ill will to this lady, and I am willing to give her the benefit of the doubt that she was just having a bad day, but it was rather funny to think that she was that pissed off that she pulled over to flip me off.  Again I don't think I was driving aggressively\assertively, in fact most drivers in this area seem to drive very impatiently compared to me, but I guess I followed too closely that she thought I was being a jerk.

One thing I’ve noticed about the part of Canada I moved to is the drivers here tend to be colossal assholes. Considering I moved here from the Chicago area, that’s saying something. My current theory for why is that people here feel that they can get away with being an asshole, because they can be fairly confident that the person in the other car is not armed.
