Co-worker presented her work by sharing her screen. She forgot to unshare.

She proceeded to open Chrome and search: "Can I sue co-worker if I get coronavirus because he coughed?"

Another employee said: "Your screen is showing" :/

This has to be the most American thing I've read all year...

Wtf hahaha 😂

If that is not a total power move, I don't know what is

Plot twist: she knew damn well her screen was still sharing.

F

Had the same situation a few days ago, but with gay porn.... Thanks, I did not want to see that.😑

It was a video conference where she "heard" a cough. Assuming a case pushes through and wins she gets paid "hearing" the clinking of coins.

In fact, yes you can - at least in Austria (and I assume there is similar laws in other countries). We have paragraph 178 & 179 StGB (criminal / penal code). The headline of those laws is: Intentional endangering People from Communicable Diseases and Negligent Endangering People from Communicable Diseases. First one gives you 3 years in jail, second one one or up to 720 daily rates (measured on your income) which means about two years income.

Willingly infecting someone with STDs like HIV, Hepatitis C and similar or risking an infection by not telling them you’re HIV / HEP C positive and having sex without a condom would also fall into this paragraph.

@dsteiner It would be difficult to prove it was intentional though. Also difficult to prove whether the victim got sick directly from this incident and not some other exposure.

@jeanblue well there are cases where it is easy. If you don’t stay at home when you’re sick it’s the first case as you are risking to infect someone else

lol, typical female search: "can i get free money because of this bullshit reason?"

@Ubbe sounds more like a North Korean situation.

Sorry, my anxiety monster Paul would never let this happen to me👺
