It’s the stupid get tested to work requirements some jobs have. It’s jamming up the system and the news gets to report how oh so long the lines for testing are…
I work in a hospital and won't take the vax, so I have to get tested twice a week. Before the holidays it was easy to get an appointment for any day/time you wanted, but around Christmas it got so jammed up that you now can't get in unless you sit on the computer refreshing their page exactly 48 hours prior to when you want the appointment.
Want to come in on Wednesday at 8am? You have login on Monday to keep hitting refresh from like 7:55 to 8:ish until you get an appointment. If you miss your window your shit out of luck. It's frustrating.
I’ve been going through something similar. I almost had to drive 40 minutes one way out of town for my test this week before finding a last minute cancellation in my city. My office has gone full remote again starting next week due to the “surge,” but the vaccine free still have to test and report. Glad I’m leaving this job soon!
