Hi everyone,

my name is Mix and ive been shielding for 5 months now. As a young single professional ive found this very isolating. Are there any other young professionals who feel they same and want to talk?

hope to hear from you soon

thanks

Hello Chriskho,

Thank you so much for reaching out.

Yep strange times and have been for 5months. How have you found shielding? I think I would have managed better had I lived with a partner of friend- doing it alone has been so isolating.

Are you able to work from home, mixmix?

Hey,

Unfortunately I haven’t been. So copious amount of time being alone with nothing to do just spells Trouble!!!!

Oh, dear! I used lockdown to study new subjects. Lots of people have been putting up free webinars on Facebook, Zoom and other places. It's been a great time for learning.

Hey Jerry,

Lol at the “not professional bit” listen I’m not professional either LOL I just have a job I mean.

It’s so boring! Lockdown would have been doable had I some bloody company.

What have you been doing to stay sane?

Nice to meet you btw
