Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

50% + natural immunity would probably nip it.

The majority of people I know who had Covid are not getting the Vax. They believe it's not needed, and there is a lot of scientific support for that position. 

Regardless, I chose to Vax because I want google to be board stiff watching me live my life.

IBM’s U.S. employees will go back to the office the week of Sept. 7, according to a memo sent to staff this week from Chief Human Resources Officer Nickle LaMoreaux.

In the memo, which was viewed by CNBC, LaMoreaux said that IBM is working on protocols for fully vaccinated employees to work in the office without masks. In addition, LaMoreaux said IBM is working on health and safety protocols for business travel and meetings with clients from outside the company.

The memo didn’t specify whether or not employees will have the option to continue remote work either full or part time, but did say IBM has “long-established practices and policies supporting work life balance which will continue as we return to the office.”

The return to work plan only applies IBM’s employees in the U.S., where Covid-19 cases have dramatically fallen in recent months amid a massive vaccination drive across the country. IBM operates in 175 countries.

Where in SoCal?

Here in Orange County, which hasn't exactly been a bastion of COVID compliance, and I have still seen pretty good masking. We're a week out from COVID restrictions statewide being lifted.

San Diego & Imperial Counties CA + Maricopa Co AZ. Not a lot of masking, though it's more of a free for all in Arizona. The masses are finished living the Covid reality.

I'm officially welcome back in my office as of 3 days ago. My boss doesn't care whether I'm there or not, though, as long as I handle my sh!t.

We're not officially opening any time soon, and when we do, the vast majority of us won't be going back into the office.  They'll reconfigure for more team-oriented workspaces and conference rooms, and probably have some hotel cube options for when employee want/need a space back in the office.

All 3 of my offices are open, and those who are 10 days past full vax do not have to wear a mask.

Of course, I'm not going. Too long of a commute.

I was already working from home 90%+ anyway.  Really no change to my life, except now I'll actually get to go into the office on days when I choose, in order to see peers and stakeholders.  Meeting in-person is more valuable for building relationships, than is meeting via phone or video chat.

Mentoring sucks ass in this environment.   I look forward to returning to some travel.  No doubt there will be less of that overall  .  My team is 4/5 remote all the time as is.  The internal relationship building is the biggest loss in all of this.   

I met one guy that reports to me since CV (we were sold in March 2020).  It was the most meaningful two hours spent since then on work related management.
