This is where U.S. law sort of departs from reality. We use what can best be described as a shotgun approach to privacy. It's full of holes.

It is mostly based on the phrase "a reasonable expectation of privacy". For instance, if you're at home on the phone talking in confidence to a best friend on the phone, you have a reasonable expectation of privacy. You feel more secure in that type of conversation and so would say things you wouldn't otherwise say.

On a college campus in public, you have no expectation of privacy.

So regardless of what the written law is, it can change dramatically based on the circumstances. Officers have had tapes thrown out because they were recorded in a public bathroom based on the idea that it is a bathroom and one has a reasonable expectation of privacy while they're taking a dump.

It's a real mess as to what is and isn't legal depending on the circumstances. In @Capitalism_is_Theft case, he works at a public university in the public domain. He can record his comings and goings at will. Whoever happens to come into and out of those recordings is incidental.

However, if there were a meeting to be called between he and a supervisor in the supervisors office, that MIGHT be different. On the one hand, state law says he has the right to record because he consented to the recording. On the other, the supervisor could argue that in his office, behind a closed door, in a private one-on-one meeting, he had a reasonable expectation of privacy.

It would be up to the judge/jury to decide that one.

Already, a few years ago, I had a meeting called between me and not only a supervisor, but the entire department/division head, and a separate meeting with one of the top HR ladies before that meeting all on the same morning.

The meeting with her, in HR, she pulled out a I phone sat it down in a chair pointed it right at me, never said a word, never warned, never spoke up. But, I was ready, I was in record mode before I walked in. They got the same in return. No one know to this day I have it.

The next meeting, with him, ( this guy had a massive temper problem, a Trump type, he was our division department director ) known for losing his cool, being a smart ass an intimidator, a bully, had complaints filed on him by the NAACP, got so mad he broke a window glass out of his office door after meeting with an employee. Did other things too.

Anyway, I recorded that meeting too.

And, there were antics all right.

Here’s another thing, the woman down in HR, she’s usually the one who wants people to write letters or statements if an event occurs, and have it sent to her. I have no doubt that’s to protect their ass legally, and build a case against you for a later date if need be etc

Also, on these meetings, you can refuse any meeting they tell you that you have to have with them. You tell them, “Yes, as soon as I have a person who can set in with me ( 3rd person ).” You have a right to do that. They don’t want you to know that. A meeting I went to one time ( the one I recorded ) I couldn’t het the campus workers Union to get off their duffs !! To do what they were supposed to do! I did speak to their attorney via phone in Atlanta, who explained, they were supposed to have been in there with you.

Well, we have a university president who rubs shoulders with Trump, that should tell you something, about the structure of our chain of command.
 
They’ll also be a % of them who will be the first to push everyone out of the way to get the darn shot when it arrives and the school or employer says, “ Take your shot or you don’t work here anymore! Find a paycheck somewhere else! “ They will be first in line after telling everyone that. That’s how they roll.

They’ll be another % that might just hopefully quit.

What this partly is about is their fear of having to take a shot, and all their BS conspiracy theories and Trumpism falling down and they look like bigger idiots. They see themselves being owned by the libs now. Seeing other people infected is owning the libs.
 
Spend 45 bucks, go all in.

Question: I haven't ordered this yet...

Is this actually, Covid-19 usable ? I've carefully took lot's of time reading the 'fine print' on all of this, and even some other mask respirators. I'm trying to see if it says used for covid too ?

And It's good I waited too, because it dropped down to twenty something bucks also..

I'm ready to order it, but, I'm hanging on to see if it requires a special mask for covid or something ?

Just checking back on this.. Cause, I'm going to order, and I wanna make sure. I'm going to wearing it into work.

I so those fat bone heads, see me with it incase I have to go upstairs. I hardly ever do,,, mostly I stay in my area 98.3% of the time. But, rarely one might come down etc.

and their rumorous mouths can't help it. I'm thinking on telling one of them if they ask, that "I'm wearing it because of the dangerous penetrating farts threats that exist upstairs." Let them wonder from there what that means, and whom it came from ? After all their the one's into "Nashville Bomber Conspiracy theories."
 
If it's a real P95 then it will work.
N95 – Filters at least 95% of airborne particles. Not resistant to oil. ...
P95 – Filters at least 95% of airborne particles. Strongly resistant to oil.

I'll put it to you this way:

The CDC does not recommend that mask or masks like it for the general public. They recommend cloth face coverings. That type mask is recommended for doctors, nurses, first responders and the like because it's considered a "critical supply".

Read more here.

What's more, try a Google Search for an N95 respirator. Then hit shopping. You'll be told it's not for the general public and shown no shopping options at all. Even on Amazon, you can no longer search for them.

So there you have it.
 
I will say Gomez is right about the mask type. But, if you're looking to make a a statement that should be loud and clear.

You guys are still short on N95's? Our supply stores have them in stock right now.

Amazon Canada is still selling them to the gen pop.
