Genuinely feel sorry for everybody out of work at the moment, the uncertainty of not knowing when things might go back to normal is the worst. Luckily my gf is still getting paid & my onlyfans page is doing gangbusters with everybody stuck at home at the moment.
By noal Go To PostI have a unique problem due to the Coronavirus.
I'm sleeping on the sofa at the moment (have been for two years). The ex is waiting for a bungalow.
My ex's special needs daughter likes routine. One of these is having sport on. She pops her head up now and again to have a look, but doesn't really watch it; it's a comfort blanket kind of thing.
She has no real conception of time and when all the sport got cancelled she went beserk asking me when it was back on.
Her behaviour has been terrible, shitting herself, being violent and aggressive. She also refuses to go to bed, so she is currently sleeping on the other sofa next to me. She also likes to take creepy pictures of me when I'm asleep and post them on the family WhatsApp group π³
I tried to pass off replays as live but that didn't work. π
I work in the food industry so am seen as a key worker which puts me at risk of getting it due to some of the tools I work with. My daughter has asthma so I have told her to stay the fuck away from me! I had to call out a member of the senior management for not washing his hands properly and I think I may start giving the canteen a wide berth.
It doesn't matter though because we are having record sales! π
Obviously, an awful lot of people have it a lot worse than me, and I'm coping okay, I think it's more the worry of passing it to someone in my household. I don't think I could ever live with the guilt..
Hang tight my G.
Just read the last few pages. Wishing all you lads the best.
I'm working from home full time atm. First ever time working from home yesterday. Can only really do ~50% of the regular work but we got a few projects going on that I can do as well.
I'm pretty comfortable being alone etc so I'm holding up pretty well but am gutted to be missing the gym. I have zero discipline for home workouts so that sucks.
My gf is getting furloughed next week. I'm pretty jelly she spends more than 20% of her wages on commuting so she's pretty chill with it. We don't live together so not really sure how we gonna see each other.
Number of footballers shaving their head growing by the day.

All the hairdressers are shut
I invested in a deluxe set of hair trimmers ages ago, i've easily saved myself over a Β£1000 in hairdressing fees not to mention saved myself endless hours of tedious conversations about Love Island.
Haven't been to a barbers/hairdressers since April 1994.
I remember because I got it cut short for a football tournament in Barcelona. π

By FortuneFaded Go To PostI figured footballers would have hairdressers come to their house, like mobile dog groomers
Presumed their clubs won't allow it.
Hi lads, thanks very much to your replies to my post about mental health. Went to sleep last night feeling a lot better. Then I woke up this morning and read a thread on an Irish forum about the virus and felt miserable again. There's a minority there that relish in negativity and posting any bad news they can find. Going to ignore that thread from now on. Only does me harm. Going to limit social media as well now. Lots of toxic there.
Went for a run this afternoon so feeling a bit better about things.

I'm sure there was no written rule expressively forbidding it, so they thought, fuck it! Let's go!
I'd rather look scruffy than shave my head, everybody regrets it.

By Daz Go To PostI say find happy distractions where you canWatching Brooklyn 99 right now. Just started season 4 on Netflix. Season 6 comes out on Saturday so I'll have even more to watch. It's a good distraction.

Been putting off buying Animal Crossing but I think I'll give in. Lot of ppl playing it and saying it's calming.
Strangely enough virus news from the past few days is making me calmer and calmer. I've sort of come to terms with the whole thing but I suppose a lot of it helps that in Toronto the government response has been really good and there hasn't been a huge outbreak (yet).

Control the controllables mate.
Look after yourself, don't blur your mind with what others are saying/doing.
Been reading through the past few pages. All the best, lads.
An email was sent around by my head of division today that's made the current work environment very sour and uncomfortable. Basically said our lab is considered essential (it isnt) and that safety is their number one priority (which it clearly isn't). Bunch of people have decided to take unpaid leave as they don't feel safe.
On the plus side, managed to order a new fridge to be delivered on Friday. Much sooner than I was expecting.

Just got myself a lovely big standalone Samsung fridge with a sexy cold water dispenser at the front. Tops purchase already.

This is good advice. Thanks, KP.
By sohois Go To PostSeems I spoke too soon earlier, my wife just got laid off because of the situation. Apparently they told her they couldn't be eligible for the 80% government salary scheme, which seemed like bullshit to me, but as far as I know there's no legal reason they can't just not use it.That's a shame man, hope you guys are/were prepared for that
Congrats on the new fridges OTT and Laboured
I had just gotten a new Samsung one last month
Fridges are incredible inventions

Think this is whatβs causing the most angst in our country at the moment. On the one hand, you have everyone and his dog on social media and tv calling you a cunt if you leave your house, and the on the other you have employers trying to pretend like nothing is happening, forcing people to keep coming into work when they blatantly donβt need to.
As much as the Tories bow down to the alter of capitalism above all others, Iβll be amazed if this isnβt addressed this week.
I can't remember but is that the one where he then ran to the bench and demanded he be subbed off because he literally wasn't going to top that?

By Laboured Go To Postfuck offLiverpool's anthem really endorsing virus spreading instead of social distancing, it is disgusting I know.

Karius is still walking alone.
Is he one of the lads the GAA was moaning about training and then not making any money out of it when they move to the AFL?
By Hitch Go To PostIs he one of the lads the GAA was moaning about training and then not making any money out of it when they move to the AFL?I can't remember but probably. Although they don't explicitly complain about not making money out of them.
There was an interesting story recently. Cathal McShane, Tyrone's current star, was going to be offered a big AFL contract. At the last minute, he gets offered a big job by some construction company here (convenient) and stays in Ireland. In like his second game of the season (in the equivalent of the League Cup in terms of importance) he suffers a serious ankle injury and was out for the season.
