I'm the same. My business and entire industry basically vanished in March. I have decided for the 6 weeks there is little I can do to improve the situation so I'm going to stop stressing about it and choose to enjoy the time and do what makes me happy.

In work... No change there.... Haven't noticed any difference on the way in to it either... Just as many people on the road as usual.

Have a good one

I have been lucky to work all the way through this..

But have you noticed the loophole retail are using..

If you sell a facemask it is classed as PPE and you can open so the shops where I work are all open..

Yet the barbers and hairdressers are closed sell face masks and u can open.

The regulations state that the shop should on be selling what its allowed to sell and close off everything else

The guards will close Dunnes,sports direct and any other shop doing the same thing

It just takes a day or 2 for the gobshites to fet caught

The big mouthy gym owner in blanchardstown didn't open today after being on every bloody radio station yesterday giving it loads.

Today the guards also cracked down on the anti mask racists in Grafton street and arrested 11 and batton charged some more

Good to see

Working frontline as I did last lockdown, this one won't be as tough for me mentally though. Last time my son stayed solely with his dad and I self isolated through it, had to say goodbye to my dad. This time we are going to co parent as normal and I am aloud someone into my bubble as a single mum.

I’m still on the frontline and everything rolls on much the same as the first lockdown. We haven’t scaled back on our protocols. Pressure is up but traffic will be lower. It’s a shit show. My thoughts are with the bereaved, the ill and people who have lost their livelihoods to this. I’m one of the lucky people in this.

Yeah still working through but have been working from home since March. While it may have been something I thought would have been great. I’d say I’m doing longer hours than before as there’s no oh I’ve gotta go to beat the traffic to get away. Can’t really complain though still have work and all that.

Though I would really like a week or two off.

If the bars/ restaurants are even open there's very few in them or else its a takeaway back to your room
