Some companies are still such a shit show.
Bro in law works in a warehouse - he only found out yesterday from work that one of the guys on the team was sent home starting last week because that guy was in contact with a relative that had a fever (nobody's even sure if that guy and their relative even live in the same house); but shifts continue as is.
This curve won't be flattened...

Curve won't be flattened until staying home is enforced. Companies waiting for government to shut everything down but government is holding off to see if companies are going to send workers home on their own dime first. It's a game of who is going to pay. That being said. I'm done waiting around. Next week I will be exhausting all my sick days and vacation days and maybe even quit in the end lol.

I went to the grocery store twice today also home depot at 6am to get a chest freezer. I am not a prepper of any sort, but I am pissed at how poorly this is being handled and am convinced we will be on lockdown since we can't help ourselves but to be degenerates.
First trip this week was Home depot for supplies as I am positive I will rebuild this house from top to bottom if I am confined to it.
That said, is it just me or are neighbourhoods absolutely rammed. Feels like when I was growing up, ball hockey being played everywhere, people walking everywhere, etc.

Alot of fucking assholes still going out. You mfs might as well go to work. Traffic this morning was regular. Meaning almost same amount of cars as any other day. Government cares more about trying to sustain the economy rather than sustain the virus. Tons of people forced to work while dumb ass office workers go out all day when they should be working from home. Eat dicks

He has done nothing except follow the lead of everyone else, still continues to sound scripted and posting selfies of working from home. More being a mouth piece (as usual) than a leader.

I'm working from home this week and for the next 2 weeks at least. I also find there is less traffic on the road. For me, I'm trying to do my part and stay home and avoid going out. I did have to go get some meat from the butcher just to have something and some meds for my father this week as well. But other than those 2 excursions I've been home and inside.
I hope Canada gets a handle of this. The idea of working from home is better than the reality of it. We do the whole VPN thing too but it was never designed for 90% of the staff to be on it all at the same time. So it's a bit of a challenge but we're working through it.
I opted to purchase groceries this week for delivery from superstore but their service is pretty shitty and I am forced to go pick up instead. Hopefully its an easy transition to pick up as I'd really rather not be stuck in a crowd of people. If I see that, i'm out. Next time I'll try Metro's delivery service.
Anybody still buying food for delivery? I've cut that out as well. Cooking at home for the most part. And eating less I might add. I'll probs end up losing a few lbs over the next couple of week. Thats not a bad thing at all though.

Business as usual at work, although everyone but essential staff isn't there. Shift change is interesting, no more face to face with each shift, they do turnover over a video feed. Shift A completely leaves before Shift B even enters the SOC. Lots of hand sanitizer, Lysol wipes just a bit of common sense and everything seems good.
Next week I'm taking a day and self isolating on Lake Ontario Can't FUCKING WAIT

People who traveled on March break are back....use caution out there. The same folks may break isolation and be shopping for food and stuff.
Anyone with a good tan, stay away! lol

How are you all coping with kids being home on week 2? Wife was talking with her Mom friends who set up a learning routine for the kids to keep them learning and also out of their hair while working.
I printed some math sheets for the kids to work on, link a few websites for them to do work and also found that Audible.com has free kids books available while they are out of school. https://stories.audible.com/discovery

I'm hearing murmurs from 'a friend's co-worker's sister who works at Queens Park' a curfew is a-coming for GTA ...
(I heard about the citywide shutdown on a Sat, and they announced it on ... Tuesday? Then I heard about the border shutdown...)
