Back To Work 12:50 - Jun 18 with 979 views | Boris_ | Are people genuinely angry about going back to work and also having to Social Distance? We've repurposed one of our machines we usually use for garment printing in to print vinyl floor and window warning signs for Social Distancing instead ( 'Please Keep 2m Apart' ) etc and running Facebook ads to promote the website we knocked up. The amount of hate we get on the ads is unreal. Either people are very very angry about going back to work and social distancing, or there is a campaign from an organisation targeting any adverts/posts promoting social distancing/return to work. Checked on competitor ads and they get the same. So, are people really that angry about Social Distancing and having to return to work? (other than teachers, obviously ) [Post edited 18 Jun 2020 13:00]

Potentially. Lots of posts from what seem like genuine facebook accounts on the face of it saying things about Social Distancing making us slaves and all sorts of weird sh!t. | |

The government have acknowledged there is a Russian campaign directed at taking advantage of the virus, it would be more advantageous to them if we got a second wave and our economy tanked even more. | | | |
Back To Work on 13:57 - Jun 18 with 877 views | saint68 | We've had to operate 4 sites at once to spread the labour and adhere to HSE advice...seems to be working currently but if an infection was to arise then we'll be back on a self imposed lockdown.. Accommodation was the hardest thing to arrange initially but all sorted now. | |

There's a reason why the Russians were using social media to back Donald Trump and it's not because they'd thought he'd make a good president. Of course, we also know who and what they were backing in this country. | |

I am very much hoping that the distance shortens to 1 metre as that would mean every workplace and shop in the country will need to buy new signs. | |

Back To Work on 14:35 - Jun 18 with 838 views | Buggalugs | I've come across plenty of people that think it's far too early to come back to work and are causing problems for employers by saying their workplace isn't going to be in an acceptable state to accommodate 2m social distancing to the letter. It's a sad state of affairs as I'm sure this wouldn't be the case if furlough had ended or never existed in the first place.....far too many people are clearly exploiting the situation now and don't seem to realise they'll have no jobs left to go to if they continue to dig their heels in and cause problems. You've had your 3 months of paid leave, now get back to work ffs. | |

There are lots of people out there suffering with Furlough Dependence who have got used to being paid to do nothing and now don't want to get back to it. What a lazy nation of slobs we have become. | |

Good job you put those 3 letters in after Wight - a few Islanders may have had a few comments to make | | | |

I've always thought the Isle of Wight was abandoned some time in the 1950s. | |

It's not ………………….. was pretty good during the good weather though The one bonus about having your salary reduced during that time though was that there was nowhere to spend the money anyway so didn't really notice it Glad to be back at work though | | | |

I was furloughed for a month in May, didn’t turn the telly on in the day once. Was up at normal time for a run/walk each morning, did loads of diy (well painting and gardening is about my limit), did an online Spanish class every day, did an online business start up course and a couple of other courses and enjoyed the weather. I was gutted when I was first told I would be furloughed as other than travelling years back I’ve not been off work for that length of time before. But it was, what it was and just got on with it. It would kill me if it was long term though. | | | |

Works ok with android phones apparently but not iPhones. How many months have we wasted already and wouldn’t this be one of the first things you checked out? | | | |
