Walker Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 So just got off a con call with Global HQ. Looking at a 30% workforce reduction. Highly possible I'll be jobless by the weekend. To top it all my wife also works for the same company. Pray for us guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best thing is they didnt give any hint or date of lockdown otherwise Idiots would have flocked to stores. Hope it works. Fingers crossed. ??? He said from midnight today. Idiots are still flocking to the store. Modi wasn't clear that the essential item shop will be open in his speech. It's up to the police now, they'll have teething problems for the first few days because none of us are trained for a situation like this but they'll have to learn and learn fast. God bless our great nation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guy thinking it will be extended? @kunjanp I guess we can assume college is off for the rest of the sem? I don't wanna sound like an a**hole, but I'm kinda happy. I wasn't looking forward going to college after 31st, or right after the current suspension as I use the Delhi metro, and thats probably the easiest place to pick up the virus tbh. If we beat (flatten) the curve, some restrictions might be lifted like all shops open, intercity/interstate travel, local public transport etc. Stuff like international flights, opening religious places maybe even passenger trains won't happen so soon imo. International flights esp I think will be grounded for atleast 3 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impact of the problem imported by middle-class and rich people will be only felt by poor & downtrodden. 21 daya lockdown is going to hit them hard, farmers, daily-wagers... the civil society has to rise up and take this challenge. All them NGOs, who collect millions in the name of helping poot are on test here. They must do more than what govt can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
