Bob The Badger Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 5 hours ago, Mucker1884 said: That link also references Halfords... Many NHS staff are apparently buying bikes to avoid public transport. For those that do feel the need to get out and exercise, cycling is better than walking/jogging/outside gyms etc, as it's much easier to maintain that social distance. Essential workers travelling by private car will still need to keep that car in tip-top condition and legal... bulbs, oil and tyres immediately spring to mind, but of course, much more. I'm all for Halfords and their ilk to remain open, so long as they look after their staff, and said staff are happy/prepared to carry on. I think many were too quick to jump on the bandwagon and slag them off for staying open. Sports Direct was a piss-take though! I don't think these guys have quite grasped the concept.

Peaceful, calm, orderly, everyone keeping distance being very sensible. Some gaps and a few favourites missing but well stocked with alternatives. Staff feeling much more relaxed. There is a system in place and 99% of folk being responsible measured and polite. Probably helps that it's a weekday. TBH I'm dreading Saturday as it'll potentially be full of the folk who're still working. I might try latish on Friday night... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mucker1884 Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Just had a text from "NHS-No Reply (Doctors surgery)... "We have seen an increase in the number of telephone calls asking the practice for employment advice and whether you should attend work during this COVID-19 crisis. We can not give advice regarding you and your employment. Please refer to the NHS 111 website. You are preventing patients accessing the GP" The above is reproduced merely for reference only. I have absolutely no inclination to comment... at all... whatsoever... nope... ... Stupid Bamfords! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will also remember the ?houses and treat them accordingly. A few companies are bringing in bonus schemes,it would be nice for the government to reward all the public servants who have worked through this a little bit as well. No bonuses for us and the lads that are working days when they should be on nights have lost their 25% shift allowance and anyone that refuses to travel to other sites away from Derby are not being payed.

Mucker1884 Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Lots of businesses/people looking after our NHS staff, with free drinks/discounts/priority shopping, and much more. Bravo, we all shout! Ah... so that's why NHS staff are now being targeted for muggings, and having their NHS ID lanyards nicked then. (I doubt many folk would check photo's closely, assuming they have them?) #morebamfords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense in one respect, but then surely another scenario is mass cross-contamination of NHS workers by encouraging them to all be in the supermarkets at the same time?
