What terrifies and annoys me more than the actual virus, is the division it is creating amongst people. You cannot escape it.
Every soul has the right to express their thoughts. But fuck me dead things have stepped up a notch lately....
My work for instance, right now is a gloomy depressing shit hole. Work is the same. It's the mood and vibe around the place that makes me shiver...
It is absolutely depressing nowadays. Not because of the virus, or the work, or personal mental issues. It's because of the split between what once were "workmates". Vaxers vs. Anti-vaxers. Believers vs. not believers. Dan Andrews supporters vs. non supporters. Flat earthers vs. round-earthers (Yes we have those too!).
It is absolutely fucked... For the first time in 20 years I actually hate going to work because of it. I've taken so many days off and sickies lately, not because i'm crook or need a holiday. I just hate going in and listening everyone barraging each other with for and against covid shit.
Walking into the mess room each morning and multiple faces glued to the fucking news screen obsessed with covid numbers with various pros and cons chit chats echoing in the background...Can't avoid it. It's hard enough being depressing at home being not allowed to go anywhere amongst other things. Last thing a person needs is to go to work and face the same demons...
For the first time ever I just go in do the work and then fuck off home. There is no point hanging around in the morning or arvos any longer for a chat because it always funnels down the same shit-hole conversation about someones opinion about either the virus, the vaccine, dan andrews, the protests... etc. etc...
I chose not to discuss it with anyone, nor do i watch news or listen to radio. This is the first time i'm voicing my self about it in weeks.
As mentioned several times above, opinions are like shits you take daily. Everyone shits. Some do it once, others shit all fucking day long. And THEN there is some who SHIT all day long and then love to rub it and throw it in your face continuously.
It's how you wield those opinions that can cause an effect.
I'm not an anti-vaxer, but i don't like vaccines personally. Am I gonna pressure someone for or against? Hell no. Your choice. All power to you.
I never had a flu needle to my knowledge. And I've never ever had a flu for that matter. I like to believe in body building it's own immunity personally. But I also believe this covid shit is an entirely different game. So I got vaxed. I have my underlaying dependant reasons for that. Otherwise, that thing would not go anywhere near me.
Whether it will do or help with anything, I don't know. I can only hope. But I made a decision and that was that.
I have a close family member working at one of the hospitals and shes showed and told me stuff that was enough for me to feel i need to act.
Also the place where I'm from in Europe usually has some severe winters, flu and cold seasons. People grew hardy against that. But last year covid hit and annihilated a good chunk of people who otherwise would not have felt a thing. And then I get people waving the "It's just a sniffle/flu" flag right in my face. But I still give them credit for their opinion...Their choice.

What you say is true Hodge.
The conversation has changed.
It used to be great to chat to friends, workmates, people at the coffee shop. They had interesting stories about what they were doing and you had interesting stories about what you were doing. Since no one is able to do anything like they used to, the talking points have become very limited.
[emoji45]
I agree Hodge. Unfortunately I'm about as subtle as a brick and most times covid is brought up I end up in an argument. I'm finding my self more and more just keeping my opinions to myself which is probably a good thing anyway lol. The constant arguing is exhausting.

A good quote from a Ted-Ed video about how we overestimate our abilities.

Not as good a meme as Krisso’s Attachment 84398
Vax or not? Dan or Gladys? Or that QLD arsehole Analstacia Palazsux? Lighten up and if you get into a debate about it at work or wherever, put some humour into it, it is way more fun that way, and at the end of the day what happens will happen. Covid? Trivial. We will probably all get it and most of us will live to kill another ZD30. Taiwan vs China., Russian mach 9 hypersonic missiles, A senile old fool at the helm of the USA. Greedy elitists wanting more money by farking over the general population…
This is what worries me.

I am annoyed that on the 23rd of Nov SA is going to let the diseased people in. Should keep our border closed a little longer
Aren't they just the ones that are not vaccinated? - or am I missing something? I agree its a risk, am double vax'd myself, but just because these people don't have the jab doesn't mean they are infected surely?Quote:

They shut the testing station for thousands of truckies using the Portland Port. When asked for a solution the Melbourne based office gave this answer:
Go to Nhill to get tested. :clapping: I suppose it is only an inch away on the map.
We’ve all been properly warned Craig Mate, choice options have again been made fully available finally to 12+ ages to date.

Testing stations are/will be financially closing everywhere soon and this Great Country aint too far off Full Tilt Open Again 2022[emoji106][emoji106]
Third/Fourth Booster Protection WILL become Mandatory, like it or lump it and our Beloved Younger Children will be Eligible for Same Same Protection SOON [emoji120][emoji120][emoji106][emoji106]

What I'm getting at, is that the truckies still have to get tested every three days because they cross the border hauling woodchips. The city based numpties want the truckies to travel to the border testing station near Nhill, which is a six hour round trip.
The trouble with politics is this....if they were a company...they'd be broke in a week...Quote:

Sorry, gets me a little cranky....

FWIW: This Covid Pandemic (selfishly financially speaking only now) has absolutely decimated businesses here and abroad, including our own.
As an SME we’ve sadly had to cut back over the last 18 months from 45 <>35 Top Folk and without previous Jobkeeper Assistance from our Government would have seen the complete closure of a near 30 year Hard Yakka Team creation that still isn’t out of the Shit yet…….Please EVERYBODY get onboard and get Vaccinated Once, Twice, Three Times Nice [emoji1037][emoji106][emoji106]

Well Perth is on the way again, French backpacker from Qld with covid entered wa 30 mins before the head border went up 11 days ago tested positive and now no major events dancing and masks to be worn from what I heard ☹️
Masks will be mandatory indoors and major public events over Christmas will be cancelled after a COVID-19 case bar-hopped in Northbridge at the weekend while potentially infectious
Got my booster today. Triple jabbed glow-in-the-dark forget your 5G I'm now receiving ISS comms direct. :)
How does it happen,heaps of my mates can't work because of no jab....but aye let this foreign price in without any....fuck my lord.....abbreviations are over ratedQuote:
