Will you go Back to WORK?

[Mr. Habib]

I work in the pharmaceutical industry. The only way we would close now is if all of us were dead. People that can work from home do, the rest of us are there trying to kill this thing 24/7.

My wife’s probably been gone from there 20-25 years now. It grew a bunch in the mean time. She really liked Menabe.

She must have been there shortly after they opened. They are 31 years now in Bloomington. We have a plant in Texas (16 years) and a plant in Alabama (6 years).

It's been a good company to work for. For only the second time in my career life, I would like to stay until I retire.

 

[bobzilla]

Never stopped. Wasn’t an option.

 

[Twangbanger]

Ya I thought what our owner did was awesome. She even paid us for the 2 weeks she shut down. Owners like that go a long way in my book, makes me want to work harder and do a better job for her. Glad yours gave a explanation and was willing to sacrifice her own money for her employees.

Hatin', your employer sounds, um..."Fabulous?"

 

[Old Bear]

Never stopped working thankfully. However, each week our sales have dropped of steadily. Hopefully, we can level off and maintain our jobs.

When my wife was very pregnant with our oldest child, when most businesses won’t even look at a pregnant woman, they hired her.

I have been going into the office everyday. Even with business slow and I can not get inventory, I still go in. I do not want to get in the routine of staying up until 0300 watching Netflix and sleep in until noon.

I work in a hospital maintaining ventilators and assisting the CRNAs and anesthesiologists. Needless to say, I don't get too much time off these days. Once this is over, or at least quelled for now, I am probably moving on. The CDC and WHO guidelines have been consistently wrong, and we all know it; yet most hospital admins, governors, etc follow them to avoid liability. I'll do my part, but this has definitely shown that the CDC and WHO will get me killed if something really nasty rolls through. Probably moving to the supply side of the industry.

 

[Steel and wood]

We are way ahead of schedule with future projects. The sales for fall and next year suck we might be out of work by fall. But thankfully we are still at for now hope all others get back soon.

Yes, I'll go back BUT for only 10 Workdays. I'm retiring April 30 and really looking forward to not taking anymore service calls!

 

[nipprdog]

When the Order is lifted, will you go back to WORK, and why or why not?

You make it sound like we have a choice.

My job was deemed essential.

 

[dsol]

I wish I could... the airline I was working for went belly up early April so my job is gone, not to return. Dead as Epstein...

Going to try and find something outside Aviation once life gets back to normal and places start interviewing & hiring again.

Congrats to you! I envy those of you that can retire. I'm 60 and have at least 10 more years before I can consider it. And that's based on my retirement funds doing as well as they did the last couple years.

 

[churchmouse]

What is this retirement thing you all are talking about.....

 

[JCSR]

Congrats on your retirement. I retired Jan. 1 this year and it's been great. I have never been so busy with home projects but I don't miss work a bit.

Same here, I retired January 31. I will just be glad when my wife goes back to work so I can get rid of doing all her projects and begin my retirement! Since she is a college professor and her university has already decreed no in person classes until fall, that will not happen until August at the earliest.

My boss now is very demanding. She lets me sleep late but the work hours are long!

I have this ongoing list of projects. I work on that list every day when not doing other things for revenue streams. The list never seems to shrink.
