2 months in and my employer has said all the employees need PPE (provided by them) to work.

aaaaay

You might want to check if this is legal in your local state/country.

For example, in Australia, if an employer requires an employee to wear PPE during their duties, they're obligated to provide the PPE or pay the cost of it.

I'd suggest a written request along the lines of "Dear management, due to shortages of PPE caused by coronavirus, my local supplier has advised they have no stock of these products available. In order to comply with your new employment requirements, please advise on your preferred location to source reliable supply of PPE. Alternatively, please supply these products directly to our location for staff use in order to meet these requirements."

Under our local laws, this would be enough to launch an unfair dismissal claim against an employer should they create a condition of employment but fail to adequately provide the means to meet that condition.

But again, this is relevant only to my local situation, so it's best you investigate your employee rights where you work.

I got to the last planet in KOTOR, and am max level. I just need to walk through the rest until the boss area. Being max level already and having no better gear to gain on this planet means I don't really have anything driving me on, except to be done with the game., which is a bad goal for a game. It's been a few days now, and it's tough to regain interest.
