Well I and all my friends have been able to go about our daily business and getting on with their lives since August last year.
Well lucky you and your friends and your insular little lives.
I worked overseas but regularly (read weekly!) came back and forth to Australia to see my immediate family and parents until March last year.
My career got thrown in the bin without the ability to do that. I would have been ok to reduce that to maybe once every 3 months. Idid manage to go back for one 6 month stint but after very nearly being refused to leave the country by an overzealous BF goon, even tho I had a copy of my work contract with me and owned my own flat overseas and resided there for over 20 years, it became evident I wasn’t even going to be permitted to see them once a year.
Carry on sipping your lattes with your friends.
