i see if work has electrical tape tomorrow
until than, dont turn on electricity?
since you said the black and blue ones are okay that should mean i could right?
Comment on Can i safely turn the power on on this open outlet? if not, how do i solve this?

Black and blue are the important ones, they’re the ones with the line voltage. From what I can see, they’re both OK, and they have wagos on them.
Under normal circumstances, the grounding wire (green/yellow) shouldn’t carry any voltage, but mistakes and faults happen. While you’ll most likely be fine just covering it as it is, I’d give that wire some treatment too: If you don’t have any wago clamps or similar, just snip off the exposed copper, and wrap some electrical tape around it just to be safe.

Unless there’s a grounding fault somewhere in your house, you should be good. Until tomorrow is probably fine, just make sure that the exposed grounding wire isn’t touching anything in the mean time, and you’re safe even if there is a grounding fault.
