Furlough.

Better than expensing all sort of shit and bringing it down to less than 10% though hey?

Furlough doesn't exist, I'm still in the office. I feel far better making a difference than you sitting on mum's grotty cum stained sofa getting stoned.

It isn't jealousy in the slightest, I love my job and furlough would have bored me senseless.

Paying dividends isn't a trick or tax avoiding. People with their own limited companies get to decide if they want dividends or to be paid as a normal employee. It's up to them to decide what's right for their personal situation.

Anyway, nobody wants to pay more tax than they have to.

I'm on furlough and really want to get back to work.

Feel like I'm contributing nothing to society (apart from giving my nephew maths/science lessons).

Plus the temptations towards alcohol are all too great

Have not been watching the news and work has not given any information. What is happening with the furlough scheme? Is pay being reduced, or made up by employers?

Coming back with a sock of that name just confirms he was the "milfhunter" that used to use the old social networking site "tagged" and used to abuse women all day, threatened to best everyone up and tried getting nudes from a fair few underage girls.

None the less, another here who wasn't furloughed and felt better for not being like you sat on your arse all day doing nothing cept beating your cheesy wotsit to 70s porn hoping to find your mums sex tapes.

I was furloughed until June, first two weeks were okay, out on the bike with little traffic, then I got bored, hubby got furloughed a month in to lockdown but had signed a contract to start a new job beginning of this month. He got told the job was no longer available so is now unemployed and where I work is making people redundant but worryingly, a number of people myself included are being disciplined for stuff that weve apparently done wrong with no warning, i went from i dont like the tone of that email to a written warning and capibility meeting with a month PIP which i knew id not manage, my colleague was suspended for stopping at a garden centre to pick something up on the way home in a company vehicle this on top of a final written warning for gross misconduct , people are being demoted and put on 3 month trial periods fortheir new positions etc, all very shady and concerning. Im not sure any of this is very legit, im too tired of the shit to fight them.

I was chatting with a financial bloke over the weekend. The sort of cvnt that regards workers as commodities to use and abuse as required (while picking up his 100's of 1000's in bonuses ).

He said the furlough was a total waste of time and companies that couldn't have kept people on the payrole at the start without government help won't be able to do it now.

His very callous view was the government should have just let companies keep or make redundant workers and put people on the dole, not on furlough.

Now I don't know enough about it all but I can see his point with the amount of people being sacked now the scheme is coming to and end. Did the gov just put off the inevitable or did furlough save jobs?

Anyone know?

I was discussing this with an accountant who used to do our company accounts before we were bought out. His view was pretty much the same, employers knew from day one a large number of Furloughed staff would never have a job to come back to and it's basically a softer (but more expensive) alternative to hitting the mass redundancy button once lockdown kicked in. Plenty of companies will hang on till the death in November before telling people that they aren't coming back after all.

Also, if everyone that is gonna end up unemployed, had all lost their jobs at once, the DWP (or whatever it's called these days? )online system would've collapsed.
