We are all in this together, nobody asked for Covid. Some are enjoing being furloughed but many are not.

Any abuse will be frowned upon as others have to pay for it - they may be the fortunate ones in well paid work but don't take the mickey.

It's feeling less like all in it together to be honest.

I don't begrudge anyone furlough pay as they were told not to work by government and had no say. There are those who have taken the Mickey with it though - employers AND employees and that will be the root of ill feeling - coupled with disparity in tier regulations and perceived unfairness in applying restrictions of course

Should've had furloughed workers assisting with track and trace, delivering supplies, shopping for the elderly, delivering schoolwork to underprivileged kids without a computer or **** teachers, anything to make themselves useful
