I've been following the rules since the second week of March.

Edit: ..... and have been working from home - with wife also working from home, and three kids including one at Uni, and an elderly kelpie and a young cat - for 296 days.

Edit: .... and throw in operations on both knees for good measure, that would've had a better outcome if the operation hadn't been delayed despite my surgeon asking for my case to be treated as an emergency.

Edit: .... and restructured my working day around the curfew, so often sending out work between 1.00am and 2.00am. And once the pools were closed, swimming in the Bay, in winter, without a wetsuit (water was under 13C) until the 5km radius ruled that out.

It is not easy and some people don't like working from home, my brother for instance, said he was tired of seeing the same things, same four walls, day in, day out, everyday and felt like he wasn't even getting a break from work.

There are those in this world that just have to have "people to see, Jobs to do, won't apply to me, I'll do what I want & bugger the rules. etc etc etc.

Then they will expect their rellies to grieve & support those.[bighmmm]

But he obviously is still able to see the four walls & not oblivion. "Be thankful for small mercies" springs to mind Rand.


The poor sod will probably need a Vacation soon.[bigrolf]

if you stay home and they go out, how does that put you at risk??

In our case, zero separation between work and home. And in practice we work 7 days a week now, so it really is "Blursday".

And we are actually allowed out, so I'm not sure why we have to stay at home.

I am curious if the index case who came from NSW had been in the Northern Beaches - genomics are the same, so presumably they were.

Some friends returned from NSW on Thursday night. They reckon that their border permit didn't tell them to, and they weren't instructed to, get tests or to isolate .... they are in fact doing both, but it is worrying.
