Horrible. Horrible for all involved. And you can only wait on the sideline and hope.

Not saying that this is the store I work at......but.... Employees will be the last to hear anything officially because they want us to kerp showing up to sell stuff.

I have a sore throat today and my chest feels tight. I am going into 100% isolation, not even my daily walk with my neighbour. I am too damn scared, and I hate feeling this way. But this has made it so clear to me.

I am in a very, very privileged position, being able to work from home, in an area where I can get fresh produce delivered, living by thousands of acres of forest land in which I can walk without seeing another person, responsible for no-one but myself. I feel guilty and selfish at my privilege but at the same time I'm going to do all I can to survive this motherfucker, and to keep other people safe.

Fuck the guilt. Thinking of your own safety first means you are doing the best thing for everyone. No need to apologize or agonize about it.

I am stunned by how often I've heard/read 'well it only kills the old and the sick' in the past week. That is not true and even if it was WTF people?
