Well, I got “The Call” from work a few days ago. I’m being called back next week. The Administrative Leave policy has changed, I had been granted leave because of my wife’s poor health. Now the only people who are granted Admin Leave must be over 65 years old or personally have a pre-existing health condition that puts them at risk. I’m grateful to have a good job with good benefits, I’m still apprehensive though. I only work with 12,000 people everyday, so what can go wrong?
So, today I cleaned out a storage room in the basement. I’ll be camping out down there for the foreseeable future. I can’t afford to get my wife sick.
It’s gonna be hardest on my kid, he’s a 13 year old autistic boy and we are real physical, lots of wrestling and horsing around. I wear a lot of different hats with him, dad, educator, exercise partner, best friend. Now that I’m going back to work I will need to keep my distance from him. If he gets it from me then his mom is bound to also.
