Directors—or anyone holding a management role—are legally required to pay a set amount in payroll taxes. If the current employer is already meeting those requirements, the new company doesn't owe anything extra. However, if the current employer isn't paying enough, the new company has to cover the gap. (Technically, they don't *have* to, but then the IRS just calculates the annual shortfall and bills the director directly. It’s usually more trouble than it's worth, which is why most new companies just pay the difference upfront.)
Bottom line: if you want this business to run smoothly and avoid the headaches casualstag4 mentioned, you need to officially hire someone. Once you do, the company becomes responsible for all the standard payroll taxes and withholdings. Personally, I put myself on the books for 15 hours a month at my own company. That totals 180 hours a year, which hits the limit for supplemental work.
Keep in mind that your current boss has to sign off on you taking on extra work elsewhere.
Beyond that consent, you really need to double-check any rules regarding ownership or executive roles like being a CEO or an authorized signatory in other firms. I know someone who had to ditch their co-ownership stake and their director title because their new employer had strict policies against employees holding outside positions.
Isolation lasts a MINIMUM of 10 days for those with mild symptoms. To wrap things up after that 10-day mark, symptoms have to subside, and they can't have had a fever for the final three days—and I mean a real fever, not just something suppressed by Tylenol. If her husband still has a fever on day ten, his isolation isn't over. Period. That means he could easily be stuck in isolation for 30 days if necessary.
She always has the option to stay completely separate from her husband to shorten her own isolation period.
I caught COVID myself, and the very first day my symptoms kicked in—fever, exhaustion, the works—my boyfriend and I split into separate rooms. I tested on day four and got the results on day five. The health official told me my isolation was up on day ten because, since I hadn't run a fever in the last three days, I was clear to head out the next day. Only then did they ask about close contacts and my living situation. I explained that I live with my boyfriend and we’ve been in separate rooms since my first symptom appeared, plus he hasn't shown any signs of being sick. Based on that, the official concluded that my boyfriend had also completed his 10-day isolation, since our last close contact was that first morning when I felt ill.
mellowskipper said:My husband has been dealing with this cold for two weeks now—his doctor put him on Folco. Though, honestly, he catches a cold at least once every single winter. My little one had a virus for about a week back in November, though there was no fever involved. The doctor just kept saying—every single time, really—that we should just focus on treating the symptoms. Then again, I’ve seen quite a few people at my office test positive for antibodies, so it's clear. It seems like a lot of adults are asymptomatic. Just a rough estimate, I guess—maybe more women than men, but it's happening across all age groups.

I had a confirmed case of COVID-19. Up until the day my symptoms showed up, I was sharing a bed with my boyfriend. We’ve been sleeping in separate rooms since then. We didn't go overboard disinfecting everything constantly. His antibody test came back negative.
mellowskipper said:My husband was working remotely this week, but he’ll be out in the field starting Monday. As for me, I have antibodies, so I’m going about my business—hitting the grocery store and leaving the house like usual. My plan is to take them both to get tested for antibodies as soon as the holidays kick off; I’m fairly certain they have them too. Even if I didn't have antibodies, I'd still be heading to the store. It's not like there are any official restrictions placed on me or anything.

Are you absolutely sure, though? They actually showed symptoms?
I don't think it's an automatic pass. If memory serves, there’s usually a four to six-day window between exposure and when symptoms actually kick in, though it can take even longer. Just because he tests negative today or tomorrow doesn't mean he won't start feeling sick or test positive the day after.
Ending isolation for mild or moderate clinical cases: Quora:
- The patient must be fever-free for at least three consecutive days without using any fever reducers and show significant improvement (reduction) in other COVID-19 symptoms. - At least 10 days must have passed since the onset of illness.
OR
- The individual receives two consecutive negative SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR test results taken at least 24 hours apart, provided the rapid swab is administered after the patient has been fever-free for three straight days.
Household members:
Quora:
If the patient and their household contacts cannot isolate separately (for instance, an ill child being cared for by parents), those household contacts must undergo quarantine for 10 days starting from the last contact with the infected person. If they remain in continuous close contact with the patient, this implies a 20-day quarantine period (10 days of the patient's infectious period plus a 10-day quarantine following the end of that infectious period) from the date the patient fell ill. This assumes the patient meets the criteria to end isolation after ten days and the contacts do not develop symptoms during that timeframe.
Drew Gonzalez75 said:If my primary care doctor refers me for some lab work, can they actually see in their system whether I actually went to the clinic and what my results ended up being?
My doctor scheduled me for testing at DZ Siget. When they took my swab, they told me the doctor would receive the results directly and that they’d call me if anything came back positive. They didn't bother calling; they just sent a text message.
You aren't subject to medical monitoring during quarantine or self-isolation if, within the last three months, you have: • had a lab-confirmed case of COVID-19 (via PCR test) or were identified as a close contact who developed symptoms and tested positive via a rapid antigen test. • been classified as a probable case based on clear epidemiological history and clinical presentation (for example, a household member living with a lab-confirmed patient who develops characteristic symptoms during quarantine).
silentskipper3 said:Someone I know in my apartment building is stuck in isolation right now. They’re dealing with some minor symptoms—fever, stuffy nose, things like that—and they’re just sitting around waiting for a call to get tested. Isn't the standard procedure supposed to be that you report yourself first, and then they tell you when to show up? I don't really get this whole waiting game. Apparently, they called their doctor on Wednesday because they thought the symptoms were starting, and the doctor just ordered them into self-isolation.
My symptoms kicked in on Sunday. A colleague also mentioned he's been dealing with a fever since Thursday along with a loss of taste and smell. I called an epidemiologist hotline that day, and they instructed me to isolate and contact my primary physician the following day. When I reached out to my clinic, the nurse took down my info and told me she'd let me know when I was scheduled. She called back later to confirm my testing appointment for Wednesday at DZ Siget. I had my results by the next day.
I’ve been dealing with pain that started in my forearm and eventually spread to my hand and upper arm. I already saw a neurologist for an EMG and a radiologist for X-rays of my hand, shoulder, and neck. They suspect it might be a spinal issue. Now, I’ve been referred to a physiatrist. Who should I see in Chicago?
I need to head over to an Unknown in Austin to pick up some furniture for the office. They’re going to charge me their local sales tax on the purchase. When we record this in our books, do we need to account for our own state sales tax too? Someone mentioned that we pay the local tax at the store, and then we just calculate the difference to hit our 25% rate here at home. Is that how it works?

To be clear, that includes any images where nipples are visible.Nudity, specifically involving buttocks or genitals, is strictly prohibited. Generally speaking, any imagery that could be considered disturbing or violates legal standards is also banned. If you have controversial photos, you may post them as a link, but never use an IMG code.
This isn't just about one specific PDF; it applies to the entire forum.
northernpilot2 said:I wanted to say, A shirtless guy isn't an indecent image that warrants a ban. That kind of thing can fly, but there are actual lines you shouldn't cross, as rustydrifter10 pointed out..
So, is a male nipple actually banned or what? Usually, you see guys walking around shirtless with their nipples on full display, unless they’re out there wearing a bra. 😁
