Is there a negative rating? Would make one of those Andy Warhol 'movies' where he points a camera at a building for ten hours seem riveting.

Did you underestimate how long we would be effected by COVID-19?

beerguts · 31-01-2021 2:07pm

Yes I did. I bought into the original 'this is only for a couple of weeks'. I am now slightly pessimistic about how long more restrictions will go on.

Do you keep in contact with former work colleagues /friends or is it a case once you have left you lose all contact with them

Lost all contact. Was in another country.

GME - Righteous revenge on wall street, or dangerous fad? Both?

Trigger Happy · 01-02-2021 10:38am

GME is yesterday's news. Silver is where the action is at today. But - fad. It will be fun while it lasts but ultimately fad.

Did you struggle out of bed this morning? (Or are you still there?)

Snails pace · 02-02-2021 8:58am

They should buy mountain bikes and go on forest trails.

Will you do a spring clean since it technically is Spring now ?

Trigger Happy · 02-02-2021 9:56am

No but we will look at sprucing up some of the doors and skirting with paint. We need a project to distract us from lockdown tedium.

When did you last do an actual job interview?

CruelCoin · 02-02-2021 11:24am

13 years ago. Been in the family business since.

In this world where job applications massively outweigh jobs, is it fair to bin cv's for having silly mistakes like typos?

IrishLad90 · 02-02-2021 12:21pm

People who can leave typos are just a couple of questionable life decisions away from being a serial killer..

Up and down to be honest. Trying to be good, cutting back on takeaways, cutting back on biscuits and sweets. But then you have days where you just need something naughty!

Ireland.

Have you an idea in you’re head when you think it will be ok to travel?

auspicious · 03-02-2021 12:38am

It may cost extra with a fine but sure tomorrow's ideal.

Some of them do seem perilously close to
