They are probably rounding up some more animals as we speak, if they are not using bats to create epidemics they are murdering helpless dogs in Yulin with that disgusting festival they run each year.

As a life long dog lover, their level of supposed "humanity" makes me sick. Repulsive beyond belief @ElwoodBlues1 .  >:D

I went to Woolworths for a shop this morning around 8.30am
As soon as I entered the store I was struck by the fact that the fruit and vegetable and meat sections looked like they hadn't been restocked

Luckily there weren't too many folks shopping.
They only had the express aisles and the self-checkouts open.
They had the other available staff busy starting on filling up the empty shelves.

I know this is more personal than not, but I made a decision over the holidays to resign from the health service I work at.

I have been advising a few people and they all seem to respond with, you are leaving too? 

An indicator of the general level of staff satisfaction and well being.

I have gone to a new opportunity which is a bit of a sideways move, but I dont think Ill regret leaving and the new place seems more invested in their staff.  Grabbed my booster today, and finishing up friday week.  Might use up some of that sick leave I have barely touched over the last 13 years with an "adverse reaction".

Good luck in the new role @Thryleon‍

I think there will be a trend across all industry with people moving, either because of extended periods of duress, or simply because the pandemic has forced change to the careers they were already in. Most careers are affected in some way, change everywhere!

There will certainly be plenty of people looking for a new career.
Not sure those same people can afford the years of schooling it might take to get them to fill a lot of the health care roles that have been vacated though.

I've mentioned before that my Mother-in-law was a career nurse who 'called it quits' and retired early.
Her husband, who had a recent career change and despite only working in the industry for a few years went into an even earlier retirement.....like 10 years early!

Both off the back of Covid and the pressures/risks that it puts on you, and your extended family.

That being said, my Sister-in-law has just become a qualified doctor, so 2 out, 1 in.

Its also worth mentioning, that my niece (20yo) now has Covid after going out for dinner somewhere. Everybody who was at that dinner now has it. Unsure if they caught it at the dinner, or one of them bought it to the dinner.

Also, my SIL's BF got covid from a recent trip to NSW just before Xmas.

Was supposed to be seeing both for xmas but both decided not to come, just in case, as they were feeling unwell. Smart call, and thankful for that call, dodged 2 bullets in 1 day.

Had a friend of mine tell me that one of their family members deliberatly decided not to get tested just in case the test came back positive as they didn't want to miss their xmas catchup! Thankfully, they eventually got tested, negative, but that would've infected about 20 others.

Gone are the days where you didn't know anyone with covid.
Its coming for all of us sooner or later.

Ive been told the opportunity I am going to is only open because the person who vacated it refused to get vaccinated.

Ill be based at another government organisation, but on behalf of a managed service provider.

Its a brave new world for me, I have spent the last 13 years at 2 health services so this will be a very different scenario.  Note to anyone who is interested in a leg up, there are opportunities available that wouldn't ordinarily be open for people who might fall short on qualifications, simply because there is a shortage of people out there and a lot of roles are opening up because of Covid.  You might even find, that previously where one person was required companies are putting 2 resources in, just in case of a covid layoff.

You'll be fine Thry ....your history and work ethic stands you in good stead :)

Thry, You will be fine as Cap suggested, we know a few frontline nurses who have called it quits or gone into other healthcare areas. There is a burnout factor in healthcare services and I reckon you have done your time and will be happier elsewhere.

Yep
Good luck with the change Thry.

There are quite a few areas that will be impacted long term by the pandemic.

It's a bit bizarre
Just around where I live roads and shops today are as quiet, in fact quieter, than at any time during lockdowns.
So we open up for the sake of the economy, but people have introduced their own forms of lockdown.
Not sure where that leaves the economy.

It's probably just a period of readjustment after Christmas, combined with increasing case numbers...but some businesses are probably no better off than they were during lockdown.

Long lines at Western health ER with Covid symptoms and rumours of lockdown measures...

Finally, there's some reason to be happy that Barnaby Joyce is back in the Cabinet. Let's hope he can use the skills honed in dealing with Johnny Depp against The Joker. He'd be much better than the spineless Scotty from Marketing who has spent the last week trying to avoid responsibility for the situation. Now his own Border Force is involved, that aint going to wash anymore.

I never warmed to Djokovic even after the shuttle drivers who drove players from their hotels to the stadium described him as one of their friendliest and funny customers. But the arrogance is out there for all to see now. Can you imagine Federer or Nadal acting in this way?

We gave him an exemption, copped massive backlash as he was flying here then detained him for 10 hours before changing our minds. Laughing stock of the world.
