I prefer a light-hearted comedy when I'm "working" from home.

Not 100% sure, hopefully now this has come out we'll get the pay from the Government, we're still employed by the company, so we should

Busier than I've ever known. We have a few carers off on self isolation and patients are wanting more care as they don't want to risk giving a family member a virus.

I've literally worked 6am till 9pm almost every day, tomorrow is my first day off in 11 days. I do get hours off between calls but it hasn't felt like enough with the work load.

You enjoy your day off, get plenty of rest. You're doing an admirable thing x

Let me make it clear; if they’re planning some kind of massive deployment of troops in the near future and they’re keeping it on the lowdown, the last **** they’re gonna tell is LCpl Ryan the ******** REMF from Leeds who’s on leave scratching his bollocks and eating crisps.

At the very most, some blokes might get called in to help deliver food to supermarkets and make sure old people in rural areas aren’t dying. MAYBE. But if you think theres gonna be blokes patrolling the streets in full CBRN rig, booting ***** in for being out past curfew, you’re absolutely ****ed in the head.


What if we get civil unrest or riots or looting .. it’s all possible I think ..

Default Effects of the Coronavirus on your job?

It’s a crazy mix of events really .. some are gonna be paid (up to £30,000 ) to stay at home , some are just losing their jobs /income full stop .

The education staff aren’t coming out of this at all well .. they have incredibly stressful jobs but get normally decent breaks in between .

Now as of Monday they’re expected to carry on in work ( fewer pupils but those pupils are not gonna be happy when all their mates are having a jolly at home ) .
They’ve also had their Easter holidays cancelled as well .. that’s disastrous when you’ve been working towards a two week break.


I can’t even imagine what the hospital staff are going through ..
