I’m in the dental industry so pretty much every practice is closed except for emergencies, it looks like it’s going to mean I either get made redundant or furloughed, don’t get me wrong I’ll be able to live on the reduced income, few less luxuries and tighten my belt a bit but I’ll come out the other side.

I’ve been speaking to a few dental nurses who will only get 80% salary and they are panicking, credit cards, rent and the biggest worry car loans, but the ones worried more are the more qualified therapists, these are on £45-60k so for them it’s not 80% pay it’s the max £2,500.

I once helped at a food bank and couldn’t get my head around a lady who pulled up in a 6 month old 5 series BMW saying she could afford food, now I understand.
