Summary

This ‘pingdemic’ is ruining our country. Rob can’t just sit still and stay quiet, he needs a rant and to tell you WHY the current Covid strategy is killing businesses. KEY TAKEAWAYS No one knows what they are doing, people are confused and scared. It is not working. Half of Rob’s staff are getting pinged but none of them are testing positive. How can a company get back to normal if half their staff are off. Rob understands the impact of Covid and if people have it of course they need to isolate. But he feels like there is no clear strategy going forward and the current state of things is confusing and is crippling businesses all over the country. Rob isn’t sure what we can do to change things but perhaps if enough business owners speak up then the government will start to support both employers and employees.

0:00.0	People are confused and scared watching me, they're listening.
0:07.5	Hi, it's Rob Moore here and this pandemic is ruining our country and I can't sit here and let this thing go on.
0:18.3	So there were 600,000 pings in a week just gone and no one knows what the fuck to do.
0:28.4	No one knows what's going on.
0:31.2	Everyone's telling you to do something different and people are confused and scared and this thing
0:40.0	doesn't work. I know it doesn't work. A fucking no, it doesn't work. I have in two of my companies
0:49.5	in one office building, 80 plus staff and it doesn't work. It's not working. People are half of my
0:59.9	staff are getting pinned and most of them, none of them have got COVID. They have tests, they're fine.
1:08.0	They come back for a day, then they get pinned again. Then they have another test, then they come
1:12.9	back and then they get pinned again. How can a company get back to normal if half their staff
1:21.3	are off? Now if someone's got COVID, I'll get it. They need to be, they need to be isolating. I
1:29.5	understand. But most of them haven't. So 600 pings in a week and look, I just first of

1:40.9	for 15 years and across three firms, I have 150 staff and if there was a clear strategy and a
1:49.5	clear way and a move forward to deal with this, I would support it. But we were told it was
1:55.3	freedom day two or three weeks ago, except it's getting worse and worse and worse. So you can't run
2:02.8	the business. You can't, we pay all of our stuff. We pay the law. We hardly laid anyone off and
2:09.2	I supported the government when they brought in all these furloughs. But they should be paying sick
2:14.4	pay. They should be paying the sick pay. They should be paying the staff for the company for loss of
2:22.6	businesses. When, how many businesses are getting shut down right now? Businesses are getting shut
2:29.8	down left, right and centered. They cannot perform. And I had a broad meeting yesterday. Now,
2:36.3	someone has said they're no app, no ping. I'm going to talk about no app, no ping. That sounds like
