I’m back in Thursday after having 9 days off due to some holiday I had to get in and although it’s been nice at home with the missus who’s self employed and off and our daughter who’s working from home I’ve done all me general maintenance jobs so will actually be glad to get back to work believe it or not .
Not me now , got back from trailer yard and was furloughed this afternoon 
Appreciate this is a sensitive topic.
Ever fancied being a bin wagon driver? Thought not.
Will be working until they start dumping bodies in the streets.

Not so sure, round here they stopped picking up the garden waste bin two weeks ago and said take it to the recycling centre, three days later they shut them, now they are talking about the recycling not being collected,
Christ…bodies in the street.
There’s a thought. All the ■■■■■ littering the street after our bin collection…
Arms and ■■■■■■ legs everywhere…

Double quote:
1: Bin there… chortle chortle.
2: green gone. Nope; it’s started appearing in domestic. It’s all going to kick off soon. V is ramping drivers. It’s the incinerator capacity that’s the bottleneck. I tipped a 3 ton load (a joke) today. Took an hour.

Currently all the resi centres are closed. So, ■■■■ on the streets of stuff it in the dom bins?
I’ve already joked that they’ll be laying off NHS staff before bin men. Anyone want to take me up on a wager?
Still working, still flat out, busiest few weeks I’ve experienced. As long as folk keep eating meat we’ll keep running.

Well I’m off! Made redundant 28th February (non Corona related) and started on agency 2nd March so no 80% for me apparently!
4 days off now, my fav escorts don’t work because of corona, my dikk is sore…nowhere to go, nothing to do, no spare money to spend on useless/fun crap on ebay/amazon…sad times. I’m trying to play games on the PC but I get bored/distracted after an hour, can’t stop reading news and watching youtube all corona-related, I think I’ll have some brain damage after this if I survive at all 
teatime:
When I told my employer I was having to take the 12 shielding , I was asked for the keys and phone and told bye bye no longer employed, he wouldn’t consider SSP or the 80% wage thing , strange to see my job advertised.
No contact from him or replies to e-mail or phone calls .
DWP don’t answer the phone ant the online claim thing keeps crashing ffs.
And to make it worse the wife is in isolation with Me
This is awful! They might be on dodgy ground getting rid of you like that at the moment. Have you thought about speaking to an employment lawyer?

4 on 4 off delivering chicken to rdc’s, still busy and last week was loads of overtime but that has slowed as loads being cancelled due to staff shortages in the factories. Glad to still be working but now on less money as roads quiet journey times shorter and no nights out .
Update from my end…
Did my extra day ‘favour’ for them yesterday, got a call just after getting tipped at Derby…
‘Will you get back tonight’ , (thought it was strange, don’t usually get pushed or checked up on)
Gave standard answer…‘‘No chance’’ 
‘‘Ah right, just that after you said you wished you had took me up on the furlough offer, I thought that if you could get back I would de.tax your truck’’.
Me…I’ll be back for 9pm’'.
I was, so now I’m off. 
.
Im.still.in just about.
Gone from 7 of us down to 2.
And.to be honest what work we still.have.cpuld.be done with 1.
Am in 2 minds part me.wants.be at home.
But in a way glad of a daily run from Manchester to stoke and back.
Same.place every day don’t have any contact with anyone really.apart from flt driver who I keep away from.
And in a way keeps me.out the house saves the boredom and arguments
