I'd just like to say a massive thankyou to all those still out doing there jobs, from the bottom up.

I'm out every night filling the shelves to keep the world ticking but I know how worried people are and from 10 members of staff now down to 3 shows the strain on still going out. Please be safe and look after yourselves as much as you can x x x

I'm out collecting clinical waste daily, and we've just got word that the local health authorities are wanting my company to service the new COVID-19 testing and treatment facilities that are going to be popping up. Not worried in the slightest guvnor those who can please stay safe and stay at home as much as possible.

I also work in a small food shop and am worried that it’s impossible to distance from each other

Surely our boss is putting us at risk and should be closed by now

The fly tipping is not good though I'm not a key worker, my brother works in a local tip uptill 6 weeks ago it was fully staffed two weeks ago down too three and now had to close people are moaning. The staff couldn't help people an was becoming a health and safety issue.

My ex works for a major supermarket and its laughable the adverts they are putting out while hardly protecting their staff.

Food shops are allowed to stay open. Maybe suggest you take unpaid leave if you are very worried.

It is really hard, it's a trust thing with other workers we sat and talked about it and said that as long as well all try our super best to keep ourselves safe then we were happy to carry on.

Them that didnt feel safe to do so have gone on the sick now.

It's difficult I can't afford to go on the sick as my hours and wages usnt enough for ssp and already claim UC so can't claim anymore on that either so have to carry on and hope x Storm x

I’m a trucker for Iceland and have had a lot of positive comments from people. It is a worry but we are doing our best to keep safe, while supplying the stores.

I'm within the transport industry so havent missed a day yet, but theres not much to do to be honest. I'm grateful every day that I'm still out there and really feel for those rushed off their feet in the NHS and other essential jobs and of course those stuck at home and worried sick about their future. I know people in all the above categories.

I’m a healthcare worker and to be totally honest I’m really glad to be able to still go out to work each day. Even though we are in lockdown it feels like a little piece of normality when I’m there.
