That really stinks. People are so wrapped up into their own world sometimes (most times!) that they don't think of others.
Are these women located in another region? I wonder if they are from the snowy northeast for example and oblivious/ignorant to how impactful snow and freezing temps are to places like Texas who aren't built for that.
I heard from plenty of my TX friends who work at colleges how they were just supposed to carry on as business as usual, while homeschooling kids whose schools were closed/damaged, work from home, respond to pandemic needs, and oh yeah can you also take care of these thousands of students without power, water, food, internet too all from your home office you squeezed out space for in your closet? While the pandemic has in some ways helped work environments give employees flexibility with hours and work from home, it has also created an unfair expectation that you can now work 24hr a day without regard to what is going on in the employee's personal life. It's not sustainable.

Gluten free since Nov '11 after non-celiac gluten sensitive diagnosis. Have had great improvement or total elimination of: migraines, bloating/distention, heartburn, cystic acne, canker sores, bleeding gums, eczema on elbows, dry skin and scalp, muscle cramps, PMS, hair loss, heart palpitations, fatigue. I'm amazed.
