But there are options out there, and you've got yo use then to your advantage.. this ain't normal times so use what's on offer.... I agree we have had a good few years and a lot have got use to it like you say it's going to be a case of looking outside the box when it's over but some just can't seem to do that it will certainly be dog eat dog when it's over it might be a case of totally switching jobs who knows 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some people are on a paid holiday, feet up and f**k it... Fair enough, but this will end and you better be ready with something... Said it to a mate recently, some folks are gonna come out of this flush and some f****d. At the moment I'm doing fine (other than realising how much I hate my job ) if I don't get laid off and the pound doesn't hit parity with monopoly money then alls good. But I can't for the life of me believe that millions of people can be at home wanking off on 80% salary and it not have consequences that all of us will be expected to shoulder. It's a difficult one to predict really, fundamentally our industry remains, it's just sort of on a fag break.... If I get binned though I'll be picking fruit like a motherfucker! 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WILF 44,257 Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 They cancelled a load of debt yesterday in the UK (£13 billion or something ) so anyone with an overdraft watch out......it’s normally a signal for the banks to call everyone’s overdraft in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Forgive me ignorance please, but iv prob already stated somewhere before I don’t even have an over draft an only one credit card for emergencies but it rarely gets use an I owe it nowt It’s happened a few times when they have cancelled big debts, like the 3rd world debt cancellation a long time back. I don’t have one either mate but I know a lot of businesses use one. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
