Things like this are particularly difficult for women since our response can be tears, we cry mostly because of inability to fight back so it is embarrassing besides being horrible,
Tell her to consider it a private office, bring some fabulous plants, pictures and a Christmas decoration or two. Blanket across the chair and don’t forget a nice cup to hold pens. Maybe add a name plaque printed on paper and settle into the peace and quiet to be especially productive! I will say a prayer for her because I know how she feels! ❤️
I’ll send a pic of this out to her. They first told her yesterday that she would have a “meeting” today. And that she would be allowed union representation. So she decided to have our lawyer submit her “personally held religious belief” letter, instead of bowing to their LEAF platform. They cancelled the meeting and said it would be rescheduled form Monday. Then today they said that the Monday meeting is cancelled and she has to isolate. Weird because she knows others there that are in the same boat but they aren’t isolated. This is retaliation against her.
I am guessing that they sense your wife’s inherent strength. Even though she may be shaking in her boots, something of the invincible resides within her. Remind her of that fact. Sounds to me like they are losing traction and really don’t know how to deal with the situation. The tide is turning.
I echo this. Crying is also a reaction to being pissed off. Many women are raised that expression of anger is not acceptable. If you see a woman crying, don't assume the reason is only due to sadness.

Ty and I agree. I told her she is right over target and they are trying to get a leaflet angle.
Spot on. I commend you both for your strength - God bless you.
Prayers from me over you and your Mrs. JC.

Add a mini fridge, toaster oven, single coffee maker and other nicknacks for a woman cave.
I’m an introvert so I can make any space comfortable. Plus she can eat in peace.

What is LEAF? I'm sorry this is happening to your wife! Terrible treatment right before Christmas!
LEAF is the VA’s online employee portal that they use to track the COVID mandates and testing of all the VA’s employees. It’s a one size fits all.

Yes! I always end up crying when I get really mad and frustrated. I hate it
Ohhhh yes. Don’t forget the super hero “Momma Bear”
