Thanks to menial workers who are more important now than high fliers
We also, as Mr Poots and Mrs Dodds say (click here to read their comments), owe a debt to the workers who are keeping food supplies going like delivery drivers to our shops, those who deliver to the vulnerable, those who pack the shelves and serve at the tills, so we can have food supplies.
There are other workers as well who are classed as essential, like cleaners, some people in public transport, police and others whom I have not mentioned.

It is good that many are able to work from home, but for many this is not possible. If ever we see the importance of what some people would class as menial tasks, it is now.
Their jobs are more important than many high fliers. I do hope that we all appreciate many of the people’s sacrifices including the firms they work for and that we all give them the respect they deserve. I pray that this pandemic will soon pass and we can get back to a bit of normality.
I believe when that day comes, that world leaders need to have a good look at what man is doing to God’s creation! We all must stop exploiting the world and its creatures for wealth and futile reasons.
