Sorry if I caused any offense in the Covid thread with my rather blase approach BTW. I was just trying to calm people down as there was a lot of freaking out going on. It's a dangerous disease that should be taken very seriously, but so is anxiety and some people where doing themselves more harm than good IMHO.

Yeah I got that :) No offense taken. I agree that it has impact, and that some people take that impact further than need be. But there's a lot more people who sort of half-assedly stick to the measures as they see fit who don't seem to get that even if you don't get sick, you can be a huge part of the problem right now. My reply came of the back of a weekend where people basically were as stupid as they could have been, people being even stupider right after, meanwhile hospitals all over are crying for help as they're about to overload. I mean, a bunch of friend's colleagues proudly posted on social media on how they were "helping" by having lunch with 1 chair in between. Jesus fuck, having lunch together in the first place (nice, touching stuff, your face/mouth, then touch more stuff) is fucking stupid, let alone thinking you're doing it right because you leave one fucking chair of space in between... And then people commenting that they are so brave and are heroes and whatnot. For fuck's sake, it's hard and annoying, yes, but it's going to be a fuckton harder and last a ton longer if people keep being that stupid.

Thursday: head teacher - can you and X go into work and write up your end of year PEF reports

Friday: janitor - wtf are you two doing here? You need to leave, now.


Works for me
 
Thursday: pretty dead, a few people to shops. People seemed to have gotten the message to stay indoors

Friday: LET’S ALL GO TO THE SHOPS!!! :facepalm:
 
We went to get some messages on my wife's lunch break. Queue for the butchers but they were only letting 2 people in at a time so that explains that.

My wife went to the new Nisa down our way - we never usually go there because the only other one around here is bogging and full of junkies but not only has it been pretty quiet overall, their fruit and veg range is great. Butcher had plenty too so we're sorted for a while.

The only people that annoyed me were 2 off their face junkies bouncing up and down the Main Street like nothing was wrong.
 
Just done the shopping run. Most people being sensible and leaving plenty of space. Still breathing normally anyway.

Other than that working from home, wife's on furlough, and my son's home doing his University course from home. See photo in the other thread for how we've had to set up the dining table as 2 workstations for me and him.
 
What sucks more than having to work during this, is the fact that I can't come near my daughter, who lives with her mum. I visit frequently, but we have to keep distance. We can't even hug, which sucks.

But i'd rather that than spreading this disease
 
To be fair one customer all the time is less people overall to be in proximity to. Point taken though.
 
Why are people such idiots?

government: Please stay home during the Easter holidays. Only go out of you really must, e.g if you need to get essentials

people: let’s all go shopping for Easter stuff and create massive queues everywhere


Sometimes I think we deserve this!
 
So far. Put my back out on Friday so all the DIY that was going to get done this weekend has gone out the window. As my job can be done from home it's means I'm not really getting any additional free time so stuff still doesn't get done on weekdays.

Back mojo!
 
Another really sunny, yet cold day... the joys of living in Scotland

Being at work and thankfully getting paid as there are virtually no customers.
