You're very lucky with this:

After the 5 month period Is over for me, I don't know what to expect. My work appears to be slowly Improving their financial state, but to what capacity and whether they can afford to pay their workers without government assistance, remains to be seen.

I believe we are currently hoping for a return come the summer months, which is our busiest time of year. However, many of our suppliers have put our accounts on hold until we can pay them. While we're able to release a few payments here and there, we can't afford to pay everyone, as we aren't being paid ourselves. Cashflow is still everything.

I fully understand what you're saying. COVID-19 has crippled the finances of many businesses, some of which have gone Into voluntary administration.

Thankfully, my work Is still operating with a skeleton crew- both In the office department and the warehouse. I've actually been called In to work a 10-hour shift tomorrow, which Is a good sign. At least It's still In business to some capacity.

That's incredibly promising! There have been more and more calls for countries to come out of lockdown to kick start economies, which could lead to a massive wave of infections. I hope we can hold out as long as we can.

It certainly Is promising.

I've just arrived home and as per usual, logged Into this board. It was great to see some productivity at work, and catch up with a few friends. Hopefully It maintains some degree of stability.

Thanks mate! I really love Ramen but I only eat a little every time I go to Japanese restaurants - you know, to preserve the 'love' of that food. Smile

I well and truly see your point.

If you're an outdoor person, It's a huge change to try and adapt to being the complete opposite- Isolated In your own environment.

I miss this life, too, mate. Going to the pubs, get drunk, smoke. Arghhh I miss life because of this pandemic. I really hope this ends sooner than expected.
