I live in a place with staff who are obsessed with covid. I first moved in to this place in the midst of the covid pandemic where people were getting it all the time. The thing is that years later when covid is no longer relevant, not considered a pandemic, not as bad as people initially thought when it started, ETC, they still ask it every single morning even though they should have a good idea I don’t have it. The worst part about this is that most of the time I’m in a deep sleep when they call me, (having not slept properly the night before for one reason or another,) as I’m not what you could consider a morning person. They wake me up from a deep sleep just to ask me that question. Sometimes I even ignore the question when I’m asked it while other times I give an annoyed answer which is usually no but is said in an angry tone. I’ve reached out to the manager of the building to complain about this, how it’s not relevant and why they have to ask me every day even though covid is over and I get the same response: “It’s just something we have to ask all clients in accordance with public health standards. To live in this building, you have to answer that question. It’s just a simple yes or no answer.”
Also, if somebody comes to visit me, they force that person to sign a paper indicating that they have no symptoms. I think it’s ridiculous and unnecessary since covid has been done for years now. I’ve even annoyingly complained about the need for those who visit me to sign the paper as I feel they should not have to either. Some people respond by saying exactly what the building said to me. In mom’s case, she simply answers: “Do you want me to come and visit you?” After I answer yes, she will say , “Then don’t complain. It’s just something that has to be done and that’s it.” This is such a typical mom answer. However, I do not like being asked about covid every five minutes.
