How is the COVID pandemic affecting you?

What strategies are you using to cope with the current crisis?

I’m fortunate that I kept one of my two jobs.

I’m just taking it one day at a time.

Only... Getting broke and getting bored.

The rest didn't made much difference.
Except for having so much time in my hands and being less physically tired.

Financially broke

Library closed until further notice

Counseling closed until further notice

More rodents competing for fewer jobs

Free bus

More naps

Eat more, get even fatter

Mentally slower

Not as many reptiles bothering me about the way I look or walk. (Quarantine, dead, sick, distracted)

Other than that it is just , hermit recluse




Decomposing carcass worthless corpse

But that has nothing to do with the quarantine

Its not really affecting me.

And I like wearing mask since it hides most of my subhuman face.

Oh, it’s messed with me alright. Even though not much has happened to me personally, stuff other people are experiencing depresses me all the same. There should’ve been Iowa Hawkeye football today. That in itself is messing with my fundamental understanding of reality even though I don’t really care a whole lot about college sports.

I like it. Everywhere I go is less crowded and people seem to care genuinely about others, even strangers.

It’s getting to be a royal pain in the butt....

Customers with no masks coming in my work.

As is I am worried I am going to get 'talked to' about seeming rude to customers maybe, because of my last shift. I did finally find my manager to tell her of the two people not wearing masks that I had already talked to a supervisor about who went and told them they needed their masks up. And that I saw them still just taking them down, they had bandannas and just were refusing to actually have them up.

but before that I was certainly frustrated so IDK they could have caught some of my 'hey I am super uncomfortable with you shopping near me working with my mask on, with you not wearing yours' body language. But also because I kept trying to find a supervisor or anyone to deal with it but no one is around and seems its preferred if you get a supervisor than just tell them yourself. But raaaahhhhrrr, I swear I am going to rudely tell the next person to put their mask on and my morale at this job is getting so low I don't even care if I get fired for it. Maybe I will and if they don't like it then I will suggest they keep a supervisor or someone designated to enforce the mask mandate at the front of the store because I can't freaking take it anymore. I just wish I could get up the guts to tell my manager that maybe the not caring if I get fired but just that I can't be out front with these no maskers without someone there to like make sure they wear a mask or at the very least I should be able to tell them to put it on and just have to get a supervisor if they don't.

No alone time and constant distractions.
