    Yeah I work for a flooring distributor. My company labeled us essential so I too work through the whole thing. So did my wife as a dog bather. Guess Petsmart figured they were essential too.

    I hear people bitching about not being allowed to go outside, even though where I live you were always to go outside

    The trick with being a shut-in is that its only really practical when other people still have to go out and do things on your behalf.

    As soon as you can't get DoorDash or you A/C fails or the office fires you for clinging to "Work From Home" too long, shit gets real really quickly.

    Suddenly had a shitload of free time and still getting paid, so I went to the beach for a swim and went on bike rides or walks all the time. I think most people did.

    Ah, that sounds really nice.

    My job at the time just requested that we work from home whenever possible, so I didn't gain much extra free time (aside from transit time saved, which I won't complain about 🙂)
