Yeast posted:The cabinet document for industries allowed to operate has leaked. Essentially everything is closed except for food and medical supplies, construction on homes that’s already underway, and some retail including pharmacies, post offices and petrol stations. Bakeries, butchers and fruit shops will all close. Fuuuuck Way to force people to use supermarkets for food. Last time they were limiting meat purchases. What could possibly go wrong. The butchers and bakers around here have been continuing to enforce social distancing, unlike the supermarkets, so I hope we don't adopt the Victorian model if we have to go to level 4.

Lolie posted:Fuuuuck Yeah the butcher and baker thing didnt eventuate and Andrews stated that it wouldn't happen in yesterdays announcement. I wouldn't be surprised if it was added so they could "leak" the list and give themselves some plausable deniability so they didnt end up with ten thousand lobbyists crawling up thier arse.

Yep, looks like the speciality food stores including fishmongers and butchers was pulled from the State PDF. Good, because Woolworths is essentially empty here due to the warehouse strike. God drat this year blows.

the worst thing about being a locksmith right now must be that you can't use your skills to break into people's houses because they're all at home all the time

What's happening with offices and banks? Both have a lot of people travelling more than 5km from home, often on public transport.

All finance other than actual branches, all marketing, IT (other than critical telecoms) all software development, advertising, real estate etc etc are all banned.

It's a disgusting industry i wish was shut down for good and am miffed it's staying open but that reasoning makes sense, thanks. #freenvj #banthedoggies Lolie posted:Isn't every organisation finding some way to justify themselves as being exempt what happened last time? Yup this was absolutely the case. loving EVERYWHERE found some way to be essential and stay open so we'll see how well it works this time.

Yeah the lovely loophole is you are only allowed to go outside for Food/Medical needs/Exercise and, the magically ambiguous phrase, "Going to work unless you are able to work remotely" So fuckwit bosses don't offer remote capabilities and you're now stuck between working and being fired. Thankfully this time around they seem to have "Pandemic Leave" lined up, which you should all be using. Like if they can't loving come on TV and use the E-Word, then they're just going to half arse it again and fuckwit bosses will exploit workers who would rather stay home (The word is Eliminate)

I've said before but more cunts have been out in the streets in the last few weeks than 2.5 years here prior combined "exercising" in packs. Not to mention having entire families at the tiny rear end grocers. Anyone who needs to take their spouse and 3 kids to a tiny IGA to shop can just rack the gently caress off.

If you are one of those drug dealers who delivers by car, make sure you have a certificate and mate you can call to verify your employment as essential when pulled over by cops.

Yo Sex Fart. I've seen your stressposts here and in D&D and maybe even the cspam climate doom thread(?). If things go tits up for you, I may be able to swing you a room in the outer suburbs until things blow over. But you seem ok in stage 4 tonight, even though it's been a long fucken day. So hopefully you won't need it. Things are going to work out, even if you don't know how. You'll be ok, mate.

I really appreciate that but not in danger of imminent homelessness, just losing my under construction apartment and a whole lot of life savings. I could survive a while without working if I had to, wife is still working. It's more the long term outlook that scares the poo poo out of me. I just want to stay here, I love Melbourne and 2019 was the first time I have ever been happy and content.  Very nice gesture though, thank you.

Pictured: me on home soil Talk of teaching had me wondering what ever happened to running classes for CNC programming at the makerspace in Marrickville. No great loss because I ran like one class and they don't seem to have gotten their act together on organising more classes to teach, but the income potential was like a couple hundo for a few hours work on a Saturday using skills I don't get to anymore

Well keeping track of plates so the contact tracers can do their jobs if SHTF there* aaaah
