SuperBacon Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Surely they'd tell them. If they broke the rule for the death of David Gest Bowie, they would for this.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only broke the rule to tell Bowie's ex-wife who was in the house at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Houchen Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Ah rats cocks. It’s 12 weeks of shitposting on the UKFF for Kool Keith*. Flu jab and serious underlying conditions mean it’s house arrest.  (* I’m sure you’ll notice a huge difference) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 16, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 16, 2020 My other half is supposed to be having a scan on Sunday in hospital (Neurology), but is a particularly high risk. She spoke to them earlier and explained and they said to still go up. My mum's pub is probably going to go under now. Thanks, government, Heck I'm even concerned for my job as business is right down. Just have to wait and see. Can't afford 2 weeks of sick pay unless we end up getting all our blls etc suspended for the duration. Can't see that happening with this shower of bastards running the country though, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members quote the raven Posted March 16, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 16, 2020 I’m ringing hr in the morning. Probably going to tell them I’m doing the 12 week isolation.  I guess if they refuse I will have to quit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members waters44 Posted March 16, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 16, 2020 My wife has just had an email from her boss saying that the office will not be permitted to work from home despite tonight’s announcement. She’s not bothered but I wonder where people stand if this is happening elsewhere across the country? I suppose you have to do what your boss says?

Guest Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) It seems so, yes. Given this: Quote Asked what people should do if their jobs do not allow them to work from home, Health Secretary Matt Hancock gives this advice: "If you are healthy and not being asked to isolate because someone in your household has symptoms then of course you should still go to work. "It is important that this country keeps moving as much as we possibly can, within the limits of the advice we have been given." Edited March 16, 2020 by Uncle Zeb Was going to elaborate after the quote, but seems we can't do that when using manual quote tags or it fucks up the formatting like before, even on desktop.

I have been hospitalised a few times In the last 5 years with asthma and been forced to take steroids most years due to attacks.  Am i fit to work probably will I get super fucked over if I get this.... o yeah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 If they put up resistance, ask them what they'd do if, hypothetically, they had a member of staff in their seventies. I suspect their instinct would be to send them home, but all the advice they've heard about old people has been because they're a high-risk group, just like the one you're in - so in theory the same should apply.

Loki Posted March 16, 2020 Author Share Posted March 16, 2020 It's got proper serious today, hasn't it. Â We're looking at either locking down the country for 18 months, or 500,000 deaths, or possibly both. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
