Lip Gloss Jun 2020 7:59pm, 3 Jun 2020 40,966 posts	0 Lip Gloss Thank you all. Never been so glad to know I am setting the alarm for work tomorrow. Must have been awful for all the people who have actually suffered from this awful virus as I know how I feel and I don’t have it.
Helegant Jun 2020 8:21pm, 3 Jun 2020 6,820 posts	0 Helegant No time to read back so hoping all well. I saw a post from D2 about lung clots and would add that I knew of at least one person on blood thinners as a result of multiple clots some weeks ago and the person that told me about it said mentioned other cases. It seems to be a known after-effect to watch out for.
Too Much Water Jun 2020 8:24pm, 3 Jun 2020 7,390 posts	0 Too Much Water Working from home reserved for the office monkeys who now presumably need a bigger home as well to fit in the office space. Meanwhile all the trades have no choice but to get out into the big wide world, as do all the delivery drivers, factory workers etc Bit of a class divide emerging in this “work from home forever” idea? Another issue I can see is if you can move anywhere as you wfh there is a potential deurbanisation which could impact on housing availability in more rural areas.
