Unemployed

Mar 17, 2020 14:04

Wolfgang does IT contract work for two companies. The one he does the most work for has just rung up to say that they are shutting up shop for the duration. I'm already not earning because (a) no contact with children = no English lessons and (b) closed theatres means no translation work. We expect his other company to shut up shop any day now. We're lucky in that we have savings and the government is making provision for the self-employed to get their grubby little mitts on money for survival, but we will be spending tomorrow working out where we can reduce expenses and cancelling all non-essential outgoings. It's made me realise that charities all over the country are about to lose most of their income.
