Crowing Hen Farm COVID-19 Safety Plan

In compliance with the ORDER OF THE [British Columbian] PROVINCIAL HEALTH OFFICER (Pursuant to Sections, 30, 31, 32 and 39 (3) Public Health Act, S.B.C. 2008) Workplace COVID-19 Safety Plans;

Here are the steps that my company, Crowing Hen Farm, is taking to avoid the spread of COVID-19 in the workplace:

Llama says:
Avoid All Humans!
​
  • Avoid all humans.
  • If one must interact with a human, stay at least 2-meters away from the strange human.
  • I'm the owner and only worker here.  I'm going to keep on working alone. If I need to import extra labour like feeding The Guard Llama, I will source that labour from within my household.  
  • When outside help comes to the farm, like for sheering the sheep, we implement a 6-yard policy: no one is to go within 6-yards of the non-household-human.  It is essential to keep the people who care for our animals healthy and not endanger them in any way even if we probably don't have the virus.
  • I panic bought handsoap, disinfectant, and even hand-sanitizer from a local company made from locally distilled alcohol.  And now I have to use it up so I'm doing far more cleaning than I ever wanted to.
  • I am now ordering our beer online from the local brewery (and if you ever want to purchase some for me, ESB is my favourite!  Just say it's for Raven, they know who I am.). 
  • I am no longer doing pickup and drop off orders until further notice.  Mail order only.
  • To that end, I have released Tommy, the Attack Llama and his supporting troops, The Geese, to prevent unscheduled visitors from entering the property.  
  • Reduced trips to the post office to no more than twice a week. 
  • Sanitize my hands before and after being in the post office and after going anywhere humans might go.  Who am I kidding?  I'm washing my hands every half hour during the day because it gives me some measure of comfort and the illusion that I have control over the situation.
