Speaking of which, what is your job? And more importantly, can you claim sick leave by telling your boss that you've totally been infected with the Plague, honest, or at least only pretend to do it to still get a paycheck?

You are work in admin for a mental health charity. You could probably get away with pulling some sickies but considering service delivery collapses without you do you really think that's a good idea right now?

Your emotional wellbeing is obsessive

You consider equipping your hamster but quickly decide against it. He probably wouldn't take it well.

Order online groceries now. You have to book those well in advance, after all.


Oh poo poo, Tesco is fully booked for the next three months, Sainsburys isn't accepting new registrations, Ocado isn't even letting you browse the website unless you've already got a delivery coming.




You log onto your local supermarket delivery service in the naive hope of securing a spot some time in the next 6 months. No dice, they're all booked up all the way through to Easter.

You take a look closely at the door handle. There is no lock on the door and leaving would be as easy as turning the handle.




You are meant to be working right now but gently caress it, not like anyone at work is going to know. You settle down for a naughty afternoon nap.
