Originally posted by darmstadt View PostI started a project last year and there was a short break until now so have to go onsite Wednesday until end of April for around 2 days a week. All hotels are booked but the German government have just announced that restaurants all need to shut at 18:00 now (where I'm going also has the most cases so they're even stricter) so food might be difficult. I know that the company has some kind of rota in operation so not too many staff onsite but so far, they've only asked what days I'm coming in. Should be interesting....“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

I just started a bloody contract on Monday this week - My wife then got told shes on the vulnerable list and has to stay indoors , client let me go in and collect my laptop this morning; thought that would be happy days.
Unfortunately, the whole place seems in shock, sat here writing on contractor uk while I sit in empty teams meetings and get ignored on all attempts at communication.
Good luck to all, this feels like its going to get a whole lot worse before it gets better. Feel ultra guilty sat here with literally no tasks; but what can you do?Comment
