CaptnCoke11 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Unfortunately when this pandemic is over there’s going to be other major issues such as unemployment. Lots of people think once this is over the light switch will turn on and everything will be back to normal. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 As a software engineer I feel both happy and somewhat guilty that short of a global nuclear apocalypse(and maybe not even then) I won't have to worry about not having a job and still am being recruited on a daily basis as hard as ever. That being said it is crazy to realize just how many jobs are being lost right now with so many industries being shut down. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same way as a system administrator but at the same time still wonder what is going to happen over the next month or two. All of our clients are now working remotely and the need for support has gone down because of it so I'm hoping that nothing changes and we just have less work to do instead of cutbacks because, even though we were very publicly congratulated by our administration for the work we did to get everyone ready for this, I don't doubt we are likely near the top to be the first ones cut. Also being in the middle of a divorce is adding another dynamic to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay strong, and that means allowing yourselves to feel and express all emotions, even the ones society tells you you have to keep in to be masculine. Anyway, the Dead also said this, though I'm not quite sure if the song is about the inevitability of an outcome, or the ability to realize the path you're taking's no good and getting off of it...either way, didn't work out the best for August West: But I'll get backon my feet someday,The good Lord willingif He says I may.'cause I know the life I'mlivin's no good.I'll get a new start,live the life I should. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t have to always agree with his takes but you can tell he at least does his homework and has some backup for his opinions. The other guys, sometimes not so much. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
