Still on full pay, probably doing about 25% of the work when asked to go in. No chance of job loss or furlough

Been retired for over a year now. Really annoyed that all these people that haven't served their working time are sitting at home doing nothing, just like me.

Definitely agree with the culling of the weak, as the experts say better no Prime Minister than a bad one.

Interesting in that it will have a streamlining effect. 19 is a cull of the weak in every sense

Working in sales. I've always worked from home anyway so not much change.
What I sell is a no-contract software solution. Client's subscribe the same way you would with Netflix. For the first few weeks, we were getting loads of people cancelling or pausing their accounts and for a while, we became rather concerned.
Though still a little quieter than usual it's picking back up now and I expect sales to be back to their usual levels in May, if not above, as businesses realise that we're in this for some time and if they want to survive they need to be proactive.
Many businesses will go down and this shows the importance of having a cash contingency. If you're chasing your tail you have no chance.
I speak to business owners/directors every day and many (not some) can't tell me what their company's USP is or even explain how they could add value to a new client in a couple of sentences. It's staggering.

Working full time, all from home. Loving it. Used to wfh a day a week, really enjoy doing 5 days a week. Been told to expect to continue working from home for the whole year, which I’m delighted about. This can carry on as long it wants as far as I’m concerned

Sitting in my shorts all day in the garden sipping Peroni enjoying the sun, then once I've had enough of that I stick on my tracky bottoms and head for the supermarket to re-stock for the next day.

Wfh and living the dream, though do miss boozing with the guys at work.
Firm is busier than this time last year, but I guess the acid test will be if all of the clients who we are billing are able to pay them.
Partners will be taking 20% less on their drawings each month so nobody will be furloughed.
Imagine offices will start re-opening in london in june, but with many still staying at home if they can. I'm classed as high risk, so reckon I can get some decent time out of this and am saving £370 a month on travel, so decent.

Been working since it all kicked off but just been asked to take 10% wage cut for 2 months, whilst carrying on working and covering for those furloughed.
Typically, 5 year fixed mortgage ends next month and we were looking to borrow a little bit more to get some work done on the house. Despite the Bank of England base rate having gone down in the period, our mortgage on svr will cost more thanks to our backstabbing bailed-out-by-us banks putting the borrowing rate up and taking it away from savers so they can make money off everyone at their most vulnerable. These parasites need a serious kick in the bollocks. Wankers

Working from home and loving it. Work for the NHS so the only chance of any change to my work is if I get redeployed to do something on the front line. I suppose it would be nice to do something worthy of the clapping that I lap up every Thursday.

Been off for 5 weeks on full pay.
They reckon they're planning to 're-mobilise' on the 11th of May.
We'll see.
