So I'm catching up on my blog after my two days at work. Work hasn't been too bad actually. People are getting social distancing slowly. You do have to ask a few to step back behind the line, but that's more because they forget, or they are so busy putting their stuff on the belt the get carried away. Mostly people are nice now and grateful that we are open. Not many come in couples and the lack of kids considering they are off is amazing. I do think that it is mainly down to a good organization at the door. Both security and management standing outside and counting one in one out and saying no to more than one person per trolley. The only ones getting through are those who need help. The one thing that does surprise me is the amount of elderly still risking their lives to shop themselves. Scary. In fact yesterday I had two old dears who tried to pay with old ten-pound notes ( where the bloody hell had they had those stashed? ) They were telling me how we were all being silly, and overreacting to this "flu" Bless, no matter how I tried to get the message across they wouldn't have it. Stubborn old buggers.
It continues to be eerie going through the city, Trent Barton the really good bus company have failed us key workers badly. Not only are the bus times on Sunday service all week, which we understand, but they've stopped the Calverton Connection on a Sunday totally. So now we have no choice but to use No Charm Transport (NCT) buses. Which means that although Kev has an annual saver card, prepaid at £915 for the year, he now has to load up a Robin Hood Card at £10 a week! Highway Robbery if you ask me... I'm ok because I have my disabled pass...
On that note, my ankle is very swollen tonight, even though I wore my support stocking. I'll keep off it for a couple of days and see how it goes.
That's about it for now, stay safe...
