I thought there was a good play in the football game I was watching on the TV in the breakroom.... turns out it was an interference... an interference I didn't understand from where I said to my co-worker:

Neighbours outside are being loud as fuck. I can hear their entire conversation as clear as day, all boring shit of course.  :wanker:

It wasn't today, but this weekend I noticed all the one way aisle signs are gone at the walmart.  :dunno:

I'll have random observations by the time my shift is over later today (because it's 12:36 in the morning right now)

Had to shop groceries today. The place was full of people. No social distancing, no masks, no allowing other people to pass. I wanted to scream that it's not over. We may have better numbers than some countries at the moment, but it's not a guarantee of anything.

So fucking tired of this.

People not caring is why there's a 2nd peak going on over here at the moment. It's furiating on how utterly stupid most people are, even when presented the most simple of requests.

I beginning to see lockdown zombies in the shops buying trolley loads of toilet paper.  I find it difficult to walk passed without calling them wankers.

Eek! I  was just about to go to get, but now i'll have to see to my next grocery order. It had settled back down to next-day deliveries, just like before Covid, and i'd got used to it  Chances are I won;t get a delivery slot any sooner than 7 days hence (if I'm lucky!)  if it's gone back to panic buying now.  well. ta-ta and wish me luck *sigh *

Good luck!

Thankyou. I've just managed to put an order in for Tuesday, Not with my usual supermarket though, can't get aslot with them til 7 days later than that !  so,  can't get all the stuff i wanted, such as more more of those baked beans. Luckily I'm not too low on the hard-to-get staples, but not high enough for complacency. so i'll have to start put some carefu; thought into orders  again. 

For now, i've just booked a load of slots with placeholder items thrown in to make up mimimum, order value.  I Can add items, and swap items out later on. when my brain ias more aletrt .   Hope i don't do what i did, last time and clean forget to cancel some the orderrs I don't need  as things turn out:laugh:  I've felt bad about that, even before uIcount the cost/  :-[

We're in our second wave in Ontario it's from covid fatigue. People figured it was over, got tired of following the rules and now our numbers are doubling every 10 days.

It seems like whenever I am the only Janitor in the building, I also have to handle the restrooms...

Surprisingly enough I had no interruptions, no women barging in, no random hispanic lady pretending not to understand me, people demanding Karens telling me how to do my job (oh wait....)
