-DLC- Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 2 hours ago, Boudrias said: In the case of my son he is the dentist. Yes they have always had PPE prior to Covid. Their problem is that their orders for PPE are not coming very quickly at all. Also the quality of the PPE needed has been upped since Covid. It is not a question of being willing to pay or not. Well it's understandable that there's been a bit of a supply shortage...no one's really to blame for that. Just how it is when everyone needs something at the same time. Look what happened when people hoarded TP...they couldn't make it fast enough! How has the quality changed? Not sure how this is a problem related to the powers that be? Quote I find it pretty funny with my work(film), we’re in a small convenience store with a capacity of 3 people when they’re open because of Covid. Yet while we’re working here 20-30 people are cramming in there and no one seems to care. The double standards are everywhere. Again...that's an ownership/managerial issue more than anything. Some seemingly are failing to implement crowd control and protective measures. It's no secret that most places SHOULD have: markings on the floor that are adequately spaced apart; limited number of patrons as dictated by space inside; mask policies (if deemed necessary due to inability to social distance...which should be the first priority); acrylic shields in place to protect employees; sanitizer or regular disinfecting of shared surfaces; etc. I, too, have seen many places that just don't seem to care. It'll likely come back to bite them in some way, shape or form. Either they'll have an outbreak associated with their establishment and have to close or people will stop going there based on their lack of protection for customers and workers. They'd likely be better off doing some things to protect people and, through that, show they care about it all. I don't go back to places if I experience a lack of policies in place...too anxiety inducing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gawdzukes Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 (edited) To be honest my life would hugely benefit from a shutdown but yet I keep working, surgery after surgery. I don't need to make money off people. I work (actually work ... like lift stuff) for a living. It's the soft sale people who are starving because no one has bonus bucks to waste on their non-important skills and super important lifestyles (making yourself rich and pretty). yet they cry a river, because they can't be useless anymore. Grow up and plant some soil or build a roof. Otherwise, don't have sex (yet those are people who exactly have sex because they've got time to waste and they don't understand how hard life is) destroying the fabric of life (whilist creating it) because they can't think or work for themselves. Frankly, without Covid I would have loved this shift in societal norms. This is the approach I've wanted from society for a long time. Is there any sense that this virus created itself in humans in order for us to know what is coming and protect the flock by killing within? I think our own bodies allowed and created the virus so we can beat it. Edited September 26, 2020 by Gawdzukes 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-DLC- Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Please keep on topic as this is straying (a lot lately)....the politics have their own thread(s). While there will be some tie ins (Gov't action/inaction/etc.), the focus is on COVID and sharing information/thoughts/ideas on that. Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parents in VSB must be relieved and now can rely on factual information instead of social medial rumors. Trust is important if we as a province are going to limit covid exposures in our province.
