I do not want to be insensitive, but you have described a day of my daily life in my country, well, I am from Venezuela and that is enough to say.
By the way, I understand the popcorn thing a little under the idea that being locked up people have to get nervous and hammering something that is crunchy and salty can help calm the nerves, so I think popcorn is an option , you may have other things on hand to do the same, but considering that popcorn does not have dyes and I think that they practically do not make people fat, because it becomes the most appropriate option.
That of buying groceries online and having it delivered to your home is a pleasant dream for me, I think it is a good option, but it really does not surprise me that they are saturated with the demand of people who buy and stay at home.
I regret that the work situation, not having sources of income is an additional source of stress and concern, that we already have enough with the damned coronavirus that has us in check. Hopefully the situation can be normalized quickly and you can go back to work.
Hi @pedrobrito2004,
Thanks a lot for your nice comment. I think that this situation allows me to understand better how life must be in Venezuela. The unfortunate thing is that instead of Venezuela getting better, the world is getting closer to the state of Venezuela which is not really hopeful...
When I see the ambulance passing every couple of hours to take people to the hospital, the fact that I can't work at the moment seems like unimportant at the moment. In such a crisis what matters most is to be healthy and to be able to provide for your family.
I've heard that the virus has reached your country too. This must be another additional hardship in your every day life.
Stay safe and healthy my friend
Best regards,
Achim
Please no. A world in which all the countries become the same disaster that I have around me is something terrifying!
It scares about the ambulances, take good care of yourself. In my case, I don't think I have to worry about ambulances, since the hospitals I know in my town have had accidents for a long time, with no spare parts and no budget to repair them.
Certainly, the virus has also reached these latitudes, until now we are taking social quarantine and isolation measures, trying to keep people at home, but it does not work quite well, since many people work to live every day and if not He works, he does not eat, so it is up to them to choose between being at risk of contagion on the street or waiting at home, rationing what he has from food as much as he can and then dying of a decline.
Those with children have no choice, they need to go out to work and take risks every day to earn some money and take food home. I am lucky, in comparison, the University where I work suspended the activities, I am alone, the boys migrated and they are big, I have some water and food and I can ration with clam, the electricity has been working better and I only have blackouts of a few hours every certain amount of time. It may not sound very nice, but believe me, I have many compatriots who are much worse, so I do not complain much.
