Evil Penevil Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Not just hand sanitizer and masks are in short supply in the U.S.- add laptop computers to the list. I use an old laptop when I travel and it finally conked yesterday. It's not worth trying to get it repaired, so I visited the local Walmart to get a replacement. They were sold out because of the shift to work from home. I'll try again today at Best Buy and Staples, but I may have to order online for delivery. Two days minimum for in-store pickup. Just another reality of life under a stay at home order. Until then it will be limited posts using a smart phone. Evil 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai Spice Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 This is the kind of simple, mathematical explanation our governments should have given from the start, instead of those patriotic rethorics of "we are at war" Simple and efficient. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krapow Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Should be at least half, the overpaid cunts - Premier League clubs will ask players to take a 30% pay cut in order to protect jobs in professional football as it was announced the season will not resume until "it is safe and appropriate to do so".

KWA Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Note the footballers are being asked to defer their wages, which means they'll get them back later. The poor sods that are being furloughed won't be getting their wages topped up when things get back to normal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
