I'll see what my boss says

2020-03-24 10:40:35 UTC  

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

2020-03-24 10:40:50 UTC  

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

2020-03-24 10:41:14 UTC  

Then you get texts off the NHS saying dont go out

2020-03-24 10:41:28 UTC  

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

2020-03-24 10:42:28 UTC  

That's pretty non-essential, Hopix

2020-03-24 10:43:00 UTC  

Wuhan is set to come out of isolation next week,

2020-03-24 10:43:42 UTC  

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

2020-03-24 10:43:53 UTC  

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

2020-03-24 10:44:12 UTC  

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

2020-03-24 10:44:35 UTC  

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

2020-03-24 10:45:22 UTC  

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

2020-03-24 10:45:45 UTC  

For now

2020-03-24 10:46:00 UTC  

It's a fairly rapidly evolving situation, sadly

2020-03-24 10:46:07 UTC  

Have you been in touch with your work?

2020-03-24 10:46:10 UTC  

Good thing my workplace has working from home

2020-03-24 10:46:58 UTC  

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

2020-03-24 11:09:58 UTC  

I have a staff meeting in a few minutes

2020-03-24 11:22:23 UTC  

I found out my shop was shutting via social media lmao

2020-03-24 11:23:50 UTC  

lmfao

2020-03-24 11:25:45 UTC  

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

2020-03-24 11:26:26 UTC  

Maybe there is a God

dont macs have cloud options

2020-03-24 11:27:50 UTC  

His mac broke, he can't use it

2020-03-24 11:28:18 UTC  

<:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

2020-03-24 11:28:32 UTC  

yes but none of you have ever used cloud sounds like

2020-03-24 11:29:00 UTC  

Cloud doesnt matter

2020-03-24 11:29:03 UTC  

He can't use his laptop

2020-03-24 11:29:18 UTC  

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

2020-03-24 11:29:34 UTC  

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

2020-03-24 11:29:35 UTC  

Im sure he has more than one laptop

2020-03-24 11:29:57 UTC  

Secondly, he could ask his work to supply him a loaner

2020-03-24 11:30:02 UTC  

Thirdly: 1st world problems

2020-03-24 11:30:09 UTC  

Fourth Owen is a cunt

2020-03-24 11:30:17 UTC  

Correct

2020-03-24 11:32:45 UTC  

inflation report tomorrow 🙂

2020-03-24 11:33:11 UTC  

I'll put that on a list of "not really relevent anymore", Wacka

2020-03-24 11:33:41 UTC  

consensus was 1.7% yesterday... I see thats been revised to 1.6%

2020-03-24 11:35:04 UTC  

Do you think after this, the govmt will buy back and write off the money they ditched, causing a one off drop in the value of the pound and matching inflation?
