    The number of infections and deaths are steadily rising in South Africa. Lots of businesses have been affected and have closed down. We currently have a ban on the sale and trade of alcohol and cigarettes.

    What has your experience been? I'm not sure when i will start my part-time detailing again. I work from my garage at home and reside within a residential complex that has strict lock-down measures in place including not allowing visitors or contractors etc in.
    WOW!

    I am very happy to hear you survived it!
    Sadly, a lot of folks here have not.

    Many folks are not taking this seriously.
    This pandemic will fundamentally change the world.

    A lot of bushiness here are trying to stay open and are in survival mode.
    Bars are closed! Most restaurants have closed. Some only do to-go (Take-away).
    Many small stores and shops have closed (and probably will never open back up.

    Stay Safe! Be Well!

    I work in a "essential" business (we process payments) so I have been going into the office a few days a week, and working remote the others. Most of our folks are working remote for the next several months, but I enjoy the change scenery ("blursday" is a real thing!), and lets the wife have the house to herself for a few hours too.

    I have done a few detail jobs in the last few months, but I usually don't do many in the summer anyway.

    Like Merlin I mask up when in public, and when in the office they require masks if we leave our cubes. We have been to restaurants a few times, and lots of take away.

    Stay Safe!

    Mike.

    Heck, he never wore one. To say they're useless is a reckless use of the word. Sorry, just my 2 cents.
    Cheers,

    with the vaccine and everything we should be back to the normal situation very soon. but i think we should not forget the one very important lesson. everything can change or be lost in no time so we should try and not get attached to things people or even the situation in general. if we develop that attitude in ourselves we will be fine
    be the best version of yourself
