Happy Posted April 2, 2020 Posted April 2, 2020 Join the rest of the country with the economy basically shut down.
CaptnCoke11 Posted April 2, 2020 Posted April 2, 2020 Unfortunately when this pandemic is over there’s going to be other major issues such as unemployment. Lots of people think once this is over the light switch will turn on and everything will be back to normal. 6
Doc Posted April 2, 2020 Posted April 2, 2020 I'm currently furloughed for the month of (I hope just) April. 2

They had us shift to the parent hospital for a week but cases there are getting scarce and we don't take call.
Big Turk Posted April 2, 2020 Posted April 2, 2020 As a software engineer I feel both happy and somewhat guilty that short of a global nuclear apocalypse(and maybe not even then) I won't have to worry about not having a job and still am being recruited on a daily basis as hard as ever. That being said it is crazy to realize just how many jobs are being lost right now with so many industries being shut down. 3

I feel the same way as a system administrator but at the same time still wonder what is going to happen over the next month or two. All of our clients are now working remotely and the need for support has gone down because of it so I'm hoping that nothing changes and we just have less work to do instead of cutbacks because, even though we were very publicly congratulated by our administration for the work we did to get everyone ready for this, I don't doubt we are likely near the top to be the first ones cut. Also being in the middle of a divorce is adding another dynamic to this.

Your comment reminds me of the lyrics to the Grateful Dead's "Uncle John's Band." "Cause when life looks like easy street, there is danger at your door" I hope you make it through unscathed. But you never know what's around the corner. 3
