Do You Still Have A Job This Covid Season?

[sliara]

I'm self-employed, I'm working at home, but thankfully I get by since I live with my parents. Getting a job this Covid season is hard because of the virus still existing, but I know after some time it will also pass, like SARS. How about you? How are you holding up?

It's good for you that you work at home, earn while working at home. You have such kind of guts to do it unlike others they're lazy. They become miserable by depending upon the government financial aid.

I'm proud for those who have been jobless but yet they come up with a business online and become successful. How they do it? Well, it's their will to succeed by overcoming barriers in life. With strong faith, that God has helped them as they help themselves. In short, they're self-reliant.

I said it's good for you for you're self-employed but what the others. How can they ever survive if they remain as unproductive?

 

[sliara]

Well I guess that's their problem already if they remain unproductive, their lives would suffer and if they can't lean on anyone then I wonder how could they survive.

Yes. In fact I left my old job and started a new one while in lockdown.

I have retired 3 years ago but when the lockdown was declared in March we were in panic because my wife's job may be in jeopardy. Fortunately their office allowed them to work from home for a month. After that she again went to the office everyday for the usual performance of her job. She is the breadwinner in the family and it really scared us. Fortunately their company is earning pretty good that it did not resort to retrenching employees. Hopefully she will still get her Christmas bonus this year.

Most of us in our company still have jobs, however, there had been no increment and promotions. IT, I believe, is mostly functioning well in most part of the world, however jobs which require one to be in office in person have seen substantial set-backs. This is painful to see, indeed.

Yes. I still have a job during the worldwide situation, and I've been working throughout the pandemic the whole time. I'm grateful that I've still got a steady cash flow coming in each month.

Yes I agree the career path that we chose plays such a huge roll. I really hated being a chef during this pandemic. I have closed the shop and I am home trying to figure out what to do. I am not lazy just disoriented. I want to do something that would give me plenty of money so that I can sustain myself. I had heard of a job offer, but unfortunately it hasn't come through yet. I hate being a burden to people around me.

I work for a builders merchant so I'm okay. It's been extremely busy throughout but it's now just starting to slow down.

I do have my job and I am a software engineer.
It's not hard to work from home at all. At first it's not that great as there were connectivity issues and all. Now though, everything is pretty much stabilized and so it's fine.

Hopefully this should pass away soon. I don't want to worry about my loved ones health so much.
