Sorry to hear its tough for everyone. I was on furlough for about a month. My wife doesn't work, so 20% less was tough. But 60mile commute meant at least some fuel savings.
I'm back working now, but then get announced that my work will make a load of redundancies, luckily i was ok. But was a worry until I heard the news, as that meant no income at all for our household if I lost my job.

Glad you are OK, D6. Thought about you when i read the news.
I guess Chief Product Destruction tester is an important job.
I have managed to keep afloat mostly due to the SEIS grant from the Govt but that will not see me through until we get back to some semblance of normality , I have some trackdays booked this year but club racing is my bread and butter an nobody seems to have any idea when that will be viable to operate again .
Had a call from work. They want me to do 1 day a week for July. But they're telling me the week day has to be fixed, so I've got to agree now to it being a Thursday or a Friday. I thought the part time return was supposed to be flexible.

Sounds like a great deal imho, -to someone who is on a fixed annual salary.

Does that mean they will pay you more than furlough - i do hope so.
