We are about to get another Lockdown over here in England starting on Thursday (the 5th). It will last until the 2nd of December and pubs. restaurants and non-essential shops will be closed. Schools and Uni's will remain open though.

Are you guys looking forward to another month of restrictions?
 
Well, they keeping UNi open so that students do not go back home to their family and pass it to them or they get it. And so that's that. Well ANother month of busy people online buying up and stuck at home that I do anyway

Universities and schools being open make no sense really. We might as well not having a lockdown because those two are the biggest contributors to the case numbers.
 
Some states and even some cities in my own state are starting a second lockdown. My city isn't and I think it's ridiculous since where I live cases haven't dropped at all, and with the Holidays coming up the numbers are just going to continue to rise. Even if there was a lockdown, I'd still would have to go to work since I'm a "essential worker." (I work in a factory, but we make coolers and freezers for companies and since many companies need these to store groceries for people buying groceries online, we have to continue working to make those coolers and freezers.)
 
With the lockdown in the UK, most people are out shopping anyway. Just last week it was so busy lol. that doesn't make any sense that small shops are closed and the stores that are open are making big-time money.
 
We're still in Lockdown 1, not sure how to feel about getting at it again lol. Better that than getting lock in a wooden case i guess :P

We haven't even finished our second lockdown and there are talks/plan already regarding lockdown 3. Can't wait for that!

It's a big hell no. The government is making a horrible decision. In case they forgot, the first lock down caused more problems than it solved. Not to mention the virus still spread like wild fire. This next lock down will financially break people. Landlords and apartment companies will work around government laws and discard leases like they did with the first one. People won't be able to pay their bills. People will riot. People will get sick anyway. This next lock down will be a huge waste of time. If it was up to me, the best course of action is to let it spread and burn out. No amount of intervention is going to help this time. I guarantee it.
 
Well apparently our air travel right now is exploding, so with so many people out and about, oh boy these next few months are going to be bad.
