turns out it was a labour candidate

"Labour Candidate Arrested in Spanish Swimming Pool for Breeching Quarantine"

Yep, saw that, saw it was a Labour candidate. Thought it equally likely it could have been from another party (ideologically) but does impune the guy's character

@Eccles we had to watch that in English

What counts as essential work? Because if its earning you a living, its essential right?

In English? Odd choice

They haven't elaborated, Hopix

They just cancelled a bunch of things at my work

I'm off work for the time being so it's no issue atm

I'll see what my boss says

It was because our main fictional piece was to be nuclear war based

I'm in print and graphic design so its not exactly an essential industry

Then you get texts off the NHS saying dont go out

Mine was based on a survivor registering destruction and death, basically horrible stuff, low and behold it got fantastic marks lmao

That's pretty non-essential, Hopix

Wuhan is set to come out of isolation next week,

Yeah it is, but my point is, does it mean essential for society or essential for me?

Because it is essential for me as it's my income

My sister says local govmt is gearing up to start taking medical supplies and doing in-place welfare checks on all registered vulnerable residents

If you're employed, the govmt are guaranteeing 80% of your income even if you don't work, Hopix

So as long as you're technically still employed you can still not go in

For now

It's a fairly rapidly evolving situation, sadly

Have you been in touch with your work?

Good thing my workplace has working from home

Yeah I have, they say they're looking into the grants and such and will be in touch shortly, I think that was before last night's announcement though

I have a staff meeting in a few minutes

I found out my shop was shutting via social media lmao

lmfao

yeah, communication appears to be a problem in this crisis, which is bizarre given how fucking easy it is this day and age

Maybe there is a God

dont macs have cloud options

His mac broke, he can't use it

<:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

yes but none of you have ever used cloud sounds like

Cloud doesnt matter

He can't use his laptop

the government has facebook ad credits worth millions and it still hasn't used any for the communication

Well for a start, you don't "repair" MacBooks
