So who’s still working

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

Was a bit of a shock to hear our low level oil company was a key position however through loads of grumbling and spitting dummies out the pram we’re still here.

Who else is still working away in the workplace?

Who gets to work from home?

I’m a superintendent therapeutic radiographer at City Hospital in Nottingham. No change at all, apart from the PPE we were 3 and a half weeks into it. I was 35-40 a day without PPE.

I fucking hate the PPE. Hot, sweaty, restrictive, we don’t really know how to do it properly. It’s shite.

The PPE I can understand as a necessary evil, in my place there’s nothing worse than being wrapped up in anti flame jackets while welding in 20° weather

"Just had 2 weeks “off” as it was Easter holidays. I am now working from home but trying to communicate with teenagers with disabilities and behavioural issues from home is proving a challenge. I also signed up to NHS volunteer response team so busy!

if I were a teen I’d turn of the meeting but then I was a prick as a teen and it’s only gotten worse as I’ve aged

Somewhere in Co. Down

I'm still working as a care assistant. It is a worry but we are clear of covid so far and doing our best to keep it that way. Also some of the residents can't understand why family aren't visiting but we are skyping etc when we can but they still miss family especially the ones with dementia and special needs but we need to keep lockdown in place to keep them safe as we can. I'm on a week's holiday now so am enjoying being at home and relaxing for the week.
