That's terrible. Why would anyone leave a beautiful black labrador there?

Sorry to hear that Scarlett - I think we're going to start seeing a bit of a snowball in terms of businesses going into admin from this month and next. I feel like I've massively dodged a bullet by getting out of retail/"big company" employment last summer, I genuinely do feel for furloughed staff just having to sit at home waiting and hoping. The idea that it's a big ol' paid holiday for people is really quite offensive. I'm VERY glad to be working and I can only imagine most furloughed staff would take job security over "paid leave" any day.

Yep, we were doing pretty good as a company before this, but it's come along and collapsed us. Time to start looking for another job, if there is any

Sorry to hear that, try and stay positive, things will start to open up again pretty soon, and even though the country is in a mess, there will be new opportunities that will also open up, there always are at times like this
