I feel your pain and I understand your anger. There is no need to be shutting down the world economy and forcing a depression over a flu bug.


Funeral parlours are doing a great trade in Italy.

Do those jobs around your place you keep putting off.



It'll do your spirits good.



You have to mentally cope for the next two weeks.



The Bible says, "the diligent man is amply supplied."



And now having said that to you, I'm taking that on board myself.

Quote from: "Herman"The old lady teaches at a nearby college. All classes are cancelled and she is at home now. They hope to resume classes the first week of April, but I don't see that happening.

Colleges have shut down here. Grand daughter is moving out of her dorm today. They will be taking the rest of the semester online. On the college web page the week after spring break the staff is supposed to get everything set up for online classes. She will transfer to A&M for her next 7 years.
I've learned that if someone asks you a really stupid question and you reply by telling them what time it is, they'll leave you alone

A bunch of senior citizens in the second oldest nation on earth. Isolate them and people with respiratory conditions, but don't shut down the global economy ffs. As I have been saying, the cure is much worse than the disease.

That is really decent of you to take a voluntary lay-off.





I share an office, but I have doing what I can from my condo. With markets tanking and retirement investments tumbling, I can't keep up with answering questions from panicky clients.

I assume you will apply for employment insurance payments. Do you know how long it takes in Canada to start receiving payments once you apply. It sounds like my record of employment will be in by Monday at the latest.

Ah see, this is your problem along with others thinking its an old person's illness. It isn't. It is a VERY painful sickness as was related by one infected woman last night on our news.

Sorry to hear about this Gaon  :sad:  I understand it's hard but try to think of it this way, the fact is that everyone else is losing too to this coronavirus, if one of us suffers, we'll all suffer together, you're not alone my good friend.



Sometimes I kind of wish China would just magically disappear off the map or at least pull their head out of their rear end, they really brought nothing but problems aside from the cheap labor during the 90s.

The Chinese regime is vile to it's core, and becoming more blatant about it under Xi Jinping.
