A bunch of my co-workers are situated in Iceland and, you joke, but they have had to leave the office twice because of risk of lava in about a year.
Which seems like a startlingly high number
"Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice"
What do you even do if your office gets burned and melted by a volcano? Do you take a week "off" and all meet up in a new space? Do you look for a new job? Like damn, if the warehouse I work in burned down I'd be completely out of a job unless I can move 1,000 miles away.
Wow, do you live in the middle of a desert? I would try to move anyway if that's the real situation.
America; jobs will relo to the next warehouse and since #america, everyone will have to report there for even office work or be laid-off.
Tell me if I didn't make it cruel enough to be America yet.
You forgot to mention no relocation assistance and no adjustment to wages to make up for the hurdles and potential cost of living increase in the new location.
And if you take a hit to performance (you will) you might get fired! And then all that was for nothing.
Honestly I think if that happened to me I'd fire the building. From existence.
Probably what happened to the previous warehouse lol
Well when you live on a volcanic island… it shouldn’t be that surprising that it occasionally does volcano things
I like how calmly Icelandic civilians and government workers seem to be coping. I know there are only about 300,000 of them, but they get repeated emergency advisories out faster than one warning would get out in, for example, Oklahoma USA. Anybody who wants to be near Hot Flowy Death right now WANTS to be near it. Source: every time the good citizens of a county in Oklahoma are warned about a (water mixed with trees) flood, there's always THAT GUY who says the county didn't do enough to warn HIM and that's why XYZ happened.
