I feel like in the near future that some of the topics covered in the article will become true and like a few had in the title will become the new "norm". Yes people will more than likely wash their hands and practice better hygiene if they don't already and they will also be hesitant about socializing with new people or people they know but are not real close with.
The impact that has come with Covid-19 is huge to senior classes around the world. Knowing that we might not be able to walk down the aisle with our class and graduate has put a lot of stress out on all the seniors. It has just had a big impact on schooling all together because of online schooling and like it said in the article about how it will be hard to go from online schooling back to actual school in the fall. This is probably going to be hard for everyone.
It has also impacted people working. I got told that I didn't have to show up for any of my shifts along with everyone else that worked at Ponts. I have gained appreciation of actually having a job and being able to work. People might feel bad towards working because they don't like working but when they are out of a job and don't have money they actually miss working and having a job. One lesson that I have learned is that when something like this happens the oil and gas prices drop drastically. For me I am loving it because I drive around a lot. It is a bit easier on the bank account and my wallet money wise.
I haven't really observed my parents that much of how this has affected them because my dad slipped a disc right before all of this had happened and is just getting better and will hopefully be able to go back to work on this following week. I keep up with things that go on at the foundry because that was suppose to be my summer job this coming summer like it was last year. I know that they are not getting that many orders because of this whole deal and their hours of working got cut back from 40 hours a week to 30 hours a week. My mom is still working her same hours and the only that I have noticed that has changed at her job is that she has to have a sheet of plastic up at her window for precautions.
Hey Timmy! I agree that some of the topics discussed within the article will come true for us. For example, I have noticed already that I have been washing my hands far more times than I would have before this pandemic. I agree that people will resort to better hygiene and will refrain from socializing with others if it is not necessary. Personally, I think I will be eating out a restaurants fewer times than I normally would when this is over. I have eaten at home so much now that I have begun to enjoy it more than I used too. There's nothing like a good home cooked meal.
ReplyDeleteYes, Covid-19 has had a huge impact on seniors all over the world. It is super sad to think that we have had our last day of high school without even knowing it. Online schooling is hard and can be frustrating for everyone. I just hope this ends soon and we can get that graduation ceremony in. :)
I sorta agree with you Timmy. I don't really think that people are going to be hesitant about socializing after this, but online school sucks and the impact to the senior has caused some disappointment. The price of gas is great though. Hope your dad gets better.
ReplyDeleteI agree with what you had to say! I do think there will be many people who are a lot more hesitant with social interaction. However, I know that not everyone will think this way! The gas prices have been really nice recently as well! I'm not to sure about my summer job either! I was supposed to work at the pool, and as of right now I don't think it will be opening.
