I don't think you'd get covid from peeing in a common area as long as you're not doing all at the same time. Isn't urine supposed to be sterile?

Building code in this locality requires a toilet in any work place.  Like an unmanned storage building doesn't need a bathroom, but if you added a workshop suddenly you did.  Not sure how to square that with the current situation.  If you gave me a "no restroom use" rule I'd probably go pee behind the building and hold #2 until I get home, but if everybody else did that then maybe that's the same as having a bathroom.  Maybe everybody can mark their own pee spot out back. 6 feet apart from each other of course :)

So got an update
Anybody curious, this is for Illinois.
IDPH hotline 18008893931
option 4 I was in contact with a positive case but have no symptoms
Continue normal activity if contact was not within 6 feet for more than a few minutes

If there are no symptoms and there was not contact within 6 feet for more than a few minutes an employer CANNOT facilitate an asymptomatic test


The followup on the customer, Im not so mad now. He works in a office where a lady tested positive, close proximity. So he was an asymptomatic precautionary test, he met the criteria because he was within 6 feet for more than a few minutes. This place had another positive last week supposedly. thankfully they are closed for sanitation. We will be avoiding people that work there.

Given the issue, we are closing all our communal areas, no coffee pot, not fridge, no restroom use. Primary installer will operate out of the garage and only use the garage door, he wont enter the work area. hes set up for remote now and will be on call when hes not actively on jobs. We would send the work truck home but he doesnt have a garage and we are already seeing an increase in vehicular burglary. Owner will stay remote. Other tech will be remote with his van in his garage. There is a large workbench in the garage where inventory will be available for resupply. It will be lysol stocked at night.

Im a dirty bastard so ill be using the primary workspace to do builds and all that. if im not building or hanging, ill be home.

I will have techs meet me on build sites as required. We will have as minimal contact as is realistic. If its just 911 guy for tower work, they wont leave the vehicle. We will go back to me humping stuff up grain legs and towers for a while if its reasonable weight.

Thank god we dont have to shut stuff down for 2 weeks every time some pauper approaches us. Techs were given clear instruction that if the customer comes outside, they are to get back in the work truck and if customer wont stop approaching, just to leave the site, we will recover equipment later

    Doesn't matter what you touch as long as you wash your hands
    after any potential contact. You could stick your finger up an
    infected person's nose, and as long as you washed your hands,
    you are cool.

    I am not advocating that (just in case someone misinterprets
    what I'm saying).

            Customers lie or don’t know they even have it, then

                symptomatic wednesday if it was bad enough for a
                test the next day. I fin out he was already on
                quarantine wednesday, im going to probably lose my
                stuff. He answered negative to the questionnaire.
                The tech has been anal about this since day one. We
                went no touch last monday officially. he had no
                contact closer than 10 feet. Never went inside.
                sanitizes constantly. But we have no choice but to
                go down a tech for 14 day quarantine. We are closed
                tomorrow for a video-conference to regroup. Tuesday
                we will probably be sanitizing everything.

                there is little to no chance the tech caught it. he
                is writing down arrival to exit to help him
                remember if there is any chance of contamination.

                We have to try to get the health department to give
                us clear guidance on company operations over the
                next 2 weeks.

                If this guy lied on the questionnaire ...... Ill
                probably end up in jail. We have too much going on
                to be a man down, much less a whole company down.
                If he got my installer sick, and lied on the

                        pessimistic.  He got some treatments other

                        only through extensive intervention from

                                    this morning. It's interesting
                                    to me because it's bringing to
                                    light the fact that COVID-19 is
                                    apparently not what people are
                                    dying from, it's the secondary
                                    ARDS-like (Accute Respiratory
                                    Distress Syndrome) condition.
                                    There is also some debate
                                    within the medical community
                                    whether ventilators are helping
                                    or hurting. Maybe what they
                                    need to do is just supply oxygen.
