Definitely a notable difference today. Maybe the message is getting through. Got a letter from employer to say that I'm a key worker (healthcare). Others should get the same for using at checkpoints.

When this is all over, there will be some lessons to be learned re: planning and organisation of a major worldwide event like this.  This will be true for all countries.

Donald says it will be over in a few weeks - how unbelievably stupid do you have to be to vote for a man like that.

Loads of talk on Sunday about it (75%) , haven't heard anything since but in their defence they said it would be finalised by wed/thurs .

Doesn't matter to those of us building essential yuppie housing though .
Walk-in down mchale rd , sun out, summers day , game day . That's all .

I know lads working in Finance IT who are getting the same letters.

Companies need to f**k off. If you're not involved in the food or medical supply chain, you're not "essential"

Also companies need to wise up and spend some money on a remote work infrastructure and do it now as if there is a load of taking the piss and this thing isn't got under any form of control then they'll just be shut.(which is obviously the lowest concern here I know but businesses can be kept going if they stop being dicks - finance/IT are not notorious for trusting their staff)

Thanks. Yeah that seems to be a problem. Would you be eligible for SSP?
