You appear to be having a complete meltdown today. You keep talking about my "imaginary business". I have no interest in what you think. The government certainly don't think it's imaginary and I thank them once again for that non-repayable £10k business grant. 10 k, eh? Hey, you could pay that off your mortg...oh, no, I forgot. IARJ = I'm alright, Jack. If you've got no interest in what I think, why keep replying? Now that's breakdown, if not meltdown, behaviour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not asking you to resolve it. I'm asking you to justify the logic. Why not just say you can't? As for your goodwill? Your posting on here suggests one of two possibilities - either you've created an online persona who is a complete knobhead, or you are a complete knobhead. In neither scenario does your goodwill matter in the slightest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem for a lot of things is in the details - schools being an obvious example where no matter what measures can be put in place in whatever timescale, the logistics apparently rely on unalterable contracts between LAs and bus companies. Maybe someone with Event management experience could clarify? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Out running first thing this morning and I saw at least a dozen discarded face masks just left at the side of one pavement, a few others dotted around as well. Apart from the fact that littering is the sign of the worst kind of person, throwing away a facemask during a f*cking pandemic is the sign of a serial c**t. I'm utterly astounded that the figures in Germany haven't risen again to any degree because quite frankly, like anywhere else, this place is full of utter brain-dead idiots and thoughtless fucking c***s. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 I've seen this a few times got to be a bit of a red herring I would think. There has to be flexibility on all sides in what are exceptional circumstances. Those school buses will for the vast majority of firms sit in a depot outside the current school hours, there must bea solution to be had there.

I'm delivering training at the moment for the acceptable method for donning, doffing, and disposal of the three types of mask our staff use. Chucking them on the floor ain't approved, surprisingly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 How do they even begin to police “bubbles”?Is there an app where you need to register which households are in your bubble, so that you can be fined if caught visiting other ones? IMO, the bubble system is a not so subtle way of allowing socialising whilst still being seen to be enforcing a “lockdown”. The powers that be know that a bubble system is totally unenforceable and it’s just a way of trying to appease both sides. They're not policing the current situation much either, so that's an irrelevant point. Most people do follow the rules, for the most part. It goes back to the whole collective responsibility thing, rather than expecting the government to completely solve things. I could do with a lot fewer IARJ arseholes deciding that, because they have evaluated their personal risk as slight, the entire population should be put at risk so that we an all go for a pint before the football. I could also do without people with imaginary businesses claiming that there's not the slightest skewing of lockdown relaxation to what's best for the economy rather than what's best for the people.You seem to be really struggling this morning. What the f**k does iarj even mean? A wee bit of fresh air is needed, me thinks. Gandhi was fond of sleeping naked with his teenage grand nieces. Haven't got any dirt on Adolf though.Hitler was allegedly shagging said niece before she committed suicide. So i think sexual deviant can also be added to his charge sheet (although strangely, it's one of less severe crimes). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 I think organisers of these events are finding it too easy to just cancel things. Could be contractual issues as well, in that they can call it off now at no cost but wait until nearer the the time but have to call it off then, it might cost them a few bob. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'd have thought so - after all, surely the companies would want to retain goodwill, and maybe a wee bit extra income if the schools were to be open during normal holiday time. Without knowing more, it's difficult to say who's being obstructive, but at this time, surely various bodies should, as you say, be going down a route of compromise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh definitely! No Christmas markets despite it being 6 months away and covid numbers falling each day.

So i think sexual deviant can also be added to his charge sheet (although strangely, it's one of less severe crimes). I'm grateful to you, and the fantasy businessman, for your concern. Unfortunately, inside or out, Johnson is still Prime Minister. Yes, I'm angry - fucking raging in fact. Not just at this pathetic, incompetent Government, mind. It's the whole "now is not the time", "we won WWII, we can win this", "Support the Government becuse they're doing their best" bullshit that is flying around which really, really boils my piss. For the record: 1. Now is absolutely the time. Every day these arseholes are in charge, innocent people are suffering needlessly. And they cannot help fucking lying about it. Anyone complicit in the UK Government's handling of this crisis should do time. And I include the scientists who are legitimising the day-to-day reactionary approach. 2. This is not, whatever the spin put on it, a war. It is a crisis where innocent lives are being taken by an indiscriminate virus. "Stay Alert!" - what against a colourless, tasteless, invisible, odourless virus which can't even be see with a conventional microscope? What the fúck do you take me for? 3. Support the Government? They're doing their best? Leaving aside my congenitsal inability to support a Tory in anything, if this is their best they should fucking resign and go spend more time with someone else's money. Many picked up on Jeremy Corbyn's faults, sometimes justifiably so, but both he and, I believe, Keir Starme would have recognised a Public Health emergency when they saw one. So, yes, I'm angry. I haven't lost anyone to this virus - yet - but seeing and hearing from people who have is absolutely heartbreaking. I simply cannot imagine what it would be like to know a loved one was dying and not be there for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
