| | | My overall experience with the current pandemic is this, During the last month or so, I've gone from working full time 40 hour weeks, with a lot of OT, like at least 45 min extra everyday, pretty consistently. In the blink of an eye, this has gone to many people laid off, including one on my team, reduced hours for everyone, OT is no longer an option and if you are lucky enough to stay until 5PM, that's when they pretty much say drop whatever work is left and go home. However, in the last month, I've worked maybe three full shifts, and I generally only work 3 days a week now, most days leaving for lunch and going home only 4 hours in. That said, in Los Angeles we see that there is hardly people on the roads (which is the reason I am being put out of work). Traffic has gone from pretty congested in the mornings and full gridlock after work, to 90MPH average speeds with lots of gaps in traffic and open roads. However, last week I notice a ton more people on the freeways, though average speeds continue to be 90MPH, you no longer have so much room to maneuver the freeways. Work is still suffering, though it was decently busy, and of my three days this week I actually managed to get full hours for two days, and even 30 min OT one of the days. It's actually the reason I started getting back into urbex and going out, because I am getting rather bored with video games and being in the house, also with financial restraints I don't go out and drift the cars anymore and run them so hard because the cost of parts and tires can hurt right now. Already loaded on GoPro gear I decided to go out and see what I can find, it's still "isolation" and I get to stay active and burn some calories and get my blood flowing. I've noticed a lot of police, but only on roadways, not so much in places that people aren't at. I've stopped keeping track of infections and the day to day on the virus, I kind of already know where we are. I'm hoping to take advantage of the lack of people and get out and see some new places. We may be stuck with this virus for awhile, especially if they lift quarantine too early or people jump back into society like everything is normal, but it seems to be a good time for this.
