I do HR and Finance for the Department of Pathology at the University Hospital. I've been "working" from home, and will be until at least April 20th. They basically closed campus, shutting down almost all of the research, and limiting access to only true essential personnel. Many of our M.D.'s are even being kept away as much as possible, luckily Pathologists don't do direct patient care, so most of the department is able to keep their distance.
U.K. police staff so I’m in like normal, I build cars with fleet trackers, radios, anpr and whatever else they want, so I am needed incase any of the car systems go down just to repair and replace kit as required, no rest for the wicked in current times 👍🏼
I manage a sign dept for a large corp. So completely non essential, and no return to work date yet. But i have been the house ***** for my wife who runs 9 nursing homes. She is very essential.
I work in a chemical plant as an operator here in Michigan, so we have our letters in case we get pulled over stating we are "Essential Critical Infrastructure Workers". Just had our first positive case within our fence line so they changed up our schedule and now will be working 7 days on 7days off with 12 hour shifts for the time being. So hopefully I will get my truck done here before too long. I just hope we don't get to the point they have to lock a few of us in there. That would be 2+ weeks of never leaving the plant......
Hope everyone and their friends and families are staying safe and not too effected by all this.
I work with kids in care, so I'm in work, although I got lucky and had nine days off booked, just got back this afternoon. We've got our transport letters!
My time off coincided with the first week off from school for our lads, so luckily I missed them getting used to lockdown, that was apparently "eventful"!
I'm a state mechanic at a federal building and we are all deemed essential. I happened to break my wrist and my shoulder in Feb so i'm out of work until probably June anyway.
Navy civilian for the US navy in cali. We are essential, got our access passes for our restricted work areas in case we need to accomplish something. But for the time being, home. Garden setup and planting soon, soon enough full 3way active install.
I run the manufacturing repair department at an electronics company. We got approved as essential after we started manufacturing some face shields for the medical community.
I have mixed feelings on that, but am happy to still be employed and healthy so far..
Our state seems to have an exceedingly loose lock down policy. It seems to me nearly every company was able to get classified as essential. There are basically the same amount of cars on the road every day etc. It's just asinine imo.
I'm an electrical design engineer for CAT - Electric Power Generation.
Lot of big projects just got cancelled these past few weeks... My job is still intact, but I am a bit worried if things continue downhill.
Local P&D truck driver for a regional LTL carrier. Deliver medical supplies to hospitals, food to grocers, and picked up tons of GOJO products this week (Purell hand sanitizer).
Construction superintendent and safety manager for a very large real estate company in Boston. We had just got going on a 52 million dollar project in Allston when this virus scared everyone and the Mayor forced us to shut down all construction projects in the city of Boston. Construction is on the essential list of businesses allowed and the Governor is currently fighting with the Mayor about this. Hoping we can resume work soon but I have to finish writing a COVID19 site specific safety plan and get some hand washing stations installed ASAP. Problem is they are backordered nationwide so we are making customs ones for now. About 40 workers got lay-off checks on my job.
A long, long time ago I was an ASE master certified technician so I know cars better than most. I had ASE A-1 through A-8.
Own life insurance agency. We’re essential and never stopped working.
General contractor. Again, essential.
Thank God I listened to my parents and always keep a pretty decent emergency fund set aside for emergencies.
There is no question that these are very frightening times. Im truly not sure anyone really knows quite what to do at the moment. I suppose all we can ultimately do, is follow the protocol; hope for the best but certainly be in preperation for the worst; both physically and financially.
Pharmacist. We stay open FOR SURE. Having said that, no-one is currently allowed inside our store, and our delivery drivers drop off the drugs without interacting with the patients, besides a phone call or text. *Doesn't this belong in the OFF-TOPIC subforum?
I run a furniture store... Sales have, of course, dropped to a fraction of what they were even two weeks ago.
I have planned ahead for times like these, but the longer this drags out the closer to a complete financial disaster this will get.
What we have to keep in mind is not only getting through the virus, but when things start getting back to normal, the rebuild is gonna be long and hard...
I'm a cardiovascular ICU nurse. The hospital I work at has basically created a quaranted unit out of one of the ICU pods for Covid-19 patients and "suspected" covid-19 patients. My cvicu unit operates under same management as the general icu, but they can't take the chance of the cardiac specialist nurses such as myself being exposed to the virus, so luckily for me, I won't have any direct contact with those patients. We have had a few cases here, I think 2 requiring hospitalization and 1 or 2 that were sent home, having minimal symptoms but testing positive for the virus.
I do remote support on AV systems for Gov't, corporate, and hospital systems. I'm also in the field occasionally training our techs and engineers, but the field work has reduced quite a bit.
My company is considered essential due to the healthcare ties, so that means I am as well.
I still have a job so that's better than some. We'll see how long that lasts.
We are working in small pods with the same people only, personal stations, no sharing terminals trying to isolate to one group if someone comes down with it that whole pod is out. ATCT
