It didn't change to much for me at first. I used to work in retail, and when the pandemic hit and we started learning more about what it actually was, some people of a certain disposition wanted to fight against the whole mask thing. Eventually we had to sell the house, and I moved around a lot after that averaging around once every two months.

Got an office job earlier this year. Trained in office at first then worked from home. They had us all come back to the office in July, and then about a month later, almost everyone started working from home because we had three cases of COVID in the office. I was fully vaccinated and didn't suffer any side effects which was a bit of a letdown from it.

Back in office now. I have a Health Check I have to do everyday. I think we've only had one case of COVID since coming back. Getting back into a routine. Trying to cobble a life together because I know I'll never be able to go back to what I had.

damn bro you had to sell up your house!? Thats pretty rough.
yeah i feels for anyone working in retail during the first wave that really went belly up.
I just ended up buying more online, buying a few steam games to kill time until I could get back to work and saving more money by not going out as much especially when all the bars closed

Yeah, selling the house sucked. Having to put my dogs to sleep sucked more. It was probably what was best for them. One was really old and she had lots of trouble moving around anyway. The other had a really, really bad case of bladder cancer and he was having problems before then too because he was a rescue dog.

Selling the house and moving around a lot trying to figure out what I wanted for eight months wasn't too bad. In many ways, it was the freest I've ever been, but I missed having furniture, like a bed.
