Who’s still working
Hi everyone I just wanted to see if any of you are still visiting sites that are open and if so how’s your reception been. iv got a couple of decent garages that are soon due a visit and they would really help with keeping certain stock lines moving during these challenging times but iv personally adopted a non visit policy unless the site calls and asks me to visit but charity sites never call lol

Re: Who’s still working
I stopped making any visits over a week ago. In my humble opinion I can’t imagine that turning up to any sites at the moment would portray myself in a favourable light. I would prefer to accept that driving to a site and restocking a sweet machine is not really essential travel and stay at home as per the official advice. Personally I think we would all be better served keeping a respectfully low profile for the time being, it might prove the better option in the long run but I guess we all need to make our own choices depending on our individual circumstances and point of view.

Re: Who’s still working
I go along with previous posts!
Self-isolated end of first week in March.... not been out since.... it is non essential therefore as Style says everything can wait! Besides, doubt anyone has spare cash to waste on non essential items!

Re: Who’s still working
Matt, you do refrigerated machines though dont you. You are probably in businesses that are still running. Towers and toy machines dont tend to be in many of those sites.

Re: Who’s still working
I suppose, but there must be sites people have ie garages engineering places etc ?
Just saying if you have a site thats open I would advise to fill it. Obviously if your furlonged then of course you wouldn't ? Hmm

Re: Who’s still working
Like Matt we are still servicing our NHS sites and key worker locations. We too are performing the key worker role in doing so. These people need to be fed and less chance of infection by purchasing drinks/snacks from our machines rather than going off site to the shop etc.
We are not servicing sweet towers and toy/capsule machines though unless they happen to be (a couple of sweet towers) on the same site as the large machines that we are restocking and sanitising.
I agree with Java Green though, should I get stopped for speeding I shall give Matts details
