Anyone else just thinking 'for fucks sake'

[Pearsapiece]

Just seen the news about a 4pm new conference. I think we all know what this is going to be. And I'm just fucking fed up.

I work in an area that is very indirectly affected by the covid restrictions but it is crippling us. If people are out driving, there is no work for us. I work in car insurance... Claims to be exact. No travel, no crash, no claims.
The furlough scheme has just ended and the job support scheme requires a certain amount of work from those participating. So a second lockdown would mean very little work and therefore redundancy.
I am pregnant with dc2, waiting to buy Xmas and baby bits until we get some more money which now looks like it won't come in.
I can't do anything about it, no one can, but I'm fucking fed up of this shit. I'd still rather have the lockdown than the worst case scinario of deaths but it's still shit.
And if I'm told to shield, we'll that will just be the cherry on top of the shit mental health cake.
Anyone else need a massive rant about their own situation being shit?

Well we'll see if this lockdown makes any difference long term. I suspect not, as soon as things open up again cases will rise, and there will be another lockdown and so it will go on.

And I also suspect there will be less compliance this time, certainly I'm not prepared to leave my elderly parents this time round and will be going on 'essential care visits'. My mother's mental health is piss poor at the moment and isolation will not help

And for those who think NHS services are continuing DS has been waiting over 6 months now for a hospital appointment. It's a bloody shambles.

We unfortunately lost a colleague to suicide following the first lockdown.
My mental health is awful at the moment and I'm relying on anti depressants really. I cried so much when Boris announced this second lockdown last night. I understand is necessary but my god its still SHIT!

Also, to the person who said I wish crashes upon people to have a job. Crashes are a fact of owning a vehicle unfortunately. But I also detect fraud which is a multimillion pound industry that adds an average of 50 pound to every premium annually. If I don't do my job, that just rises and rises. So, you're welcome for all our hard work over the coming recession that will just increase that rate and amount unless we do our jobs!

I drank a bottle of wine and went to bed at 8.30. The thought of being locked up again in this gloomy dark weather and not being able to even visit a museum does my head in.

Every time someone takes the virus to their elderly parents another person waits for the hospital treatment that they need. IwishIwasyoda could be one of those adding to the time her son waits for treatment.

But of course some would happily kill off anyone outside their immediate family. Start down that line and we end up killing off anyone who costs the state money - so anyone in receipt of child benefit, anyone who doesnt pay for their own health care or their child's education.

Did anyone watch Dispatches last night. Heartbreaking. People losing their jobs, unable to find another, applying for anything in desperation
