I wish I even had an option for a furlough.. As a freelancer working in music... Well, all concerts are cancelled for the foreseeable future. And we are just dumped with no commitments from employers or government. Oh well, at least I can teach online and our expenses are relatively low... So, there will be people worse off than us... But still, it sucks!

Yeah, 20% off pay doesn't sound so bad in comparison to what yourself and many have as an option - bugger all :(
I hope the online work and graft here can help a little, it's going to be a tough year.
Yep... we aren't the worst off... there are others that have more expenses than us that will end up sinking faster. It's going to be a rough year for everyone (mostly everyone... there are some who will do just fine or even better...).
Indeed. Some of my friends, now not commuting or paying child-minding fees, are saying they are a little better off at present. For the majority though, 2020 is going to be one to forget.
It sure is rough for all independents. I wish you much strength and resilience to get through these difficult times. Stay strong and take care💪
Thanks! It's pretty rough for everyone I guess, things still could be worse!
