[QUOTE="Max68, post: 2326376, member: 521172"] Totally and utterly agree. As you know that was my problem, along with a lot of others on here, and in the end I felt resigning was my only option. You feel totally isolated in your dilemma, and because we have never had a major pandemic before in our lifetimes Unions, Employers, GP's to be fair haven't got a clue what to do so just go by the guidance from the error strewn government,. Common sense seems to go out of the window and you end up left to your own devices. Must confess if it wasn't for the fabulous support of the wonderful people on here I might have gone mad! What has been telling for me is no-one I know has been against my final decision. All friends totally agree with why I have done it. Colleagues totally understood it. The only one who was upset about it was my sister, but that was more to do with the fact that she believes that I do a great job in schools and thought it was such a shame I had to do what I did., However, with this continuing first wave, second wave, whatever you want to call it, she told me yesterday for the first time that she thinks I did the right thing! As Jbicheno says I have an immense amount of sympathy who feel isolated as shielders. However once again we don't have the data on who these people are. Are they people who are retired, or work in vocations that are little risk? There will be plenty still in education, care and other key workers jobs who would almost certainly welcome it. [/QUOTE]
