My Mrs is NHS

She isn't coal face so doesn't use it (she just sends me as a furlough wanker)

There's plenty NHS who don't need the fast track and plenty others who do

I feel for the supermarkets, I really do

 

She may not be coal face but she is a small cog in a very big machine and without her things wouldn’t get done which may have an impact on clinical work.

I’m not front line but I’m averaging 60 hour weeks, I’m on call today, on site tomorrow and Sunday and on call Monday. Good job I can’t go anywhere.

  • HBAYT?

  • Yeah, supermarket staff at massive risk for £9 an hour. Not belittling the fine efforts of our magnificent NHS, but they expect to have to deal with contagious people. Doris on the till at Morris

This whole NHS going to the front of the queue. I just can't do it.

I would imagine it could be quite embarrassing.

Anyway, off to get my click and collect shortly. Fucking piss easy.

The hassle comes after: separating it into lots for 6 other households and delivering it.

Just been to Aldi at Whitefield and queue was about 15 minutes, the girl in front of me had a skin tight skirt on with an arse to die for, I would of queued all day behind her.

Just walked the dog and went past Tesco Horwich. Queue is ginormous

It always is! I find going to smaller local stores to be much better - unless you want a lawnmower or summat.

Tesco near us is fine. Never more than a 10 min queue. Use a hand held scanner. In and out dead quick

Morrisons and Aldi though. 1 hour queues with scutters having straighteners in the queue 

I refused to go out again today as I wanted to chill out so the missus popped to lidl and said there was a couple of skanky women about to have a straightener in the queue there. Tempers are boiling over. 
 

I can’t wait for our royal rumble when the fixtures are announced as starting again 😁

Lots of changes in my click and collect and some with no alternatives. One of her beers was replaced, but bishops finger was deemed as having no suitable alternative! Figure that one out.

Plain flour unavailable again, and self raising just not sent, despite not being classed as unavailable.

Poor buggers doing the picking must be rushed off their feet! :)

Those classed as highly vulnerable and having to shield for the 12 weeks getting special delivery slots at the supermarkets I’ve just found out. That’s great work by the supermarkets ensuring they are call catered for 

that being seen down there for folk?

Ha ha. Wish I’d been there. There’s all sorts of threats going round locally following the scuffles. It’s worse than WWays for the straighteners being offered

I wasn't keen either tbh, front line more worthy of myself, but i've done 21 days straight, and 35 hours extra this week, so wasn't keen queuing to get some food :D

Kinell mate, that’s an amazing effort.

Very humbling...

Nor should you need to, that's some fucking work commitment  and you deserve to get you’re food without any mither- well done L/H it's very much appreciated..

I've been giving my shopping list to the local shop across the road, everything is 50p more expensive than Morrisons but I really can't be arsed with the Móngs (for fuck sake stop changing móngs to idiots)

If you can’t take full advantage now you never will. 
All those times you considered nabbing that £20 out of Doris’s purse and you didn’t, well now is your time to shine 😁 Get to the front with smug grin on your boat.

It’s a shame you’re a scouser, cos you’re a bloody hero otherwise.

Good on you. Well deserved. Ride the awkwardness, unmerited (but I’d be the same)
