so seriously how is everyone's pandemic going? still working? worried about TP or food? on lockdown?

Posted by mafic Mar 18 '20, 06:54

generally fine here. stores are low on pasta, bread, TP, but given that my wife's only not a prepper for lack of storage space (childhood in places with endemic shortages apparently leaves a lasting effect), we were stocked on staples before the virus. farmer's market we usually go to is shut until further notice as well.

work is *shrug* who knows? fine for now, but if mines start shutting it's anyone's guess.

otherwise not much going on. sitting at home working, still moving on Tuesday.

We go through paper towels much faster than I thought. Particularly because we clean a lot. -- nm - Volnelk Mar 18, 07:12 1

Fine. Working from home is annoying and I’m paranoid to be around my parents for a few days but more space and higher temperature here -- nm - JackDawson Mar 18, 07:08 2

We're fine, very fortunate to have stocked up on food while everybody else was grabbing TP. Have a call in 30 minutes that might axe a ton of work.. -- (edited) - colin Mar 18, 07:04 1
- need to get better about going on walks/drives just to get out of the house. spending waaay too much time inside. -- nm - colin Mar 18, 07:09
I have no work as all of my clients are working from home and I don't feel safe riding the subway. We're good on food and supplies. I'm expecting to - Krusty Mar 18, 06:59
Mostly fine here. Picked up a grocery order this morning. WFH is easily doable. Kids being home from school and dayare is the hardest part honestly. -- nm - Shaun Mar 18, 06:59 3
- yeah, glad the kid isn't in school yet. basically status quo for her. -- nm - mafic Mar 18, 07:10

Don’t like working from home but I am. I’m stocked enough on food and supplies. Going for a daily run to get outside. -- nm - Dano Mar 18, 06:59

Fine. Affects me personally very little (other than catching a movie). My Mom, not surprisingly, needs to have her arm twisted to not go out and about - Marlowe Mar 18, 06:58
