Nothing compelling employers to allow this (even if entirely reasonable/possible) or they don’t want it.
It’s all guidance, suggestions, and waffle
It’s part why I find the bullshit ‘strong government honest’ slogans inserted into thread title by an idiot so strawberry floating amusing.
Yeah, it's honestly quite poor on the Government's part that they still aren't enforcing any of this stuff. It's seeming very vague still.
Not to beat a dead horse - but that’s why I found their 3 word slogans (a classic Cummings approach) so strawberry floating distasteful
Still at least ‘squash the sombrero’ didn’t get traction

OK, let's put this down to miscommunication and try again, then.
I'll unlock it for you. In return can you please not change the title to anything too morbid. We're going to have to discuss people dying, that's an awful, inevitable part of this horrible pandemic, but we don't need to put it in the headline. It upsets me as well, in addition to LightWanderer and probably others, seeing "die" etc. up there all the time.

Oki doki
I can’t promise not to be too morbid.
I can promise I won’t deliberately try to be morbid and if anyone asks will change.
