Covid-19: We Don't Have This Everyday

It was 3am and I can't sleep a wink. I scooted my body to the edge of my bed. My mind was racing with thoughts of what this day would bring. What our futures would hold, depending upon this very day's outcome. We are so called been quarantined due to the Covid-19, and I'm having my 2 weeks off because of my ankle injury. Those brought me to these thoughts. Everything seemed idle. Businessman ranting here and there with their slogan 'Hanya orang berniaga je yang faham'. I know they are affected so bad. What we are facing now is worse inflation ever. But what else we can do other than bear with it, and adjust whatever possible to survive?

Days before, I put my work shirt on and walked out of my garage. My neighbor grinning at me and proudly said, "We got the days off over the Control Movement Order (CMO)". He asked me whether my company is 'graceful' enough to give us such 'privilege'? "No, we gotta work as usual. And you better stay at home. Enjoy!". He smiled while I ended our conversation, not interested.

Well, some of us might think the confinement by the government due to the pandemic is a something to cheer on. Gonna have a long off days which aren't accounted as annual leaves, RM 1.30/L fuel and no traffic jam- What a bless!

The other side of the coin, if the company you are serving is not operating, it is indirectly telling you that the sector you're in is affected tremendously among the rest. Don't celebrate the days too early. I'm afraid if the day comes, you can't even give a grin. Just pray it won't get any worse.

The colored prism of sectors affected by the pandemic phenomenon. Of course there's more.

Do as what you're told to do. Do the good things as much as you could with your family, stay together, stay at home and be safe! Be an opportunist because, we don't have these days everyday.
