UMS2 Ideas

[Griffin]

Hey all,
Small update, where UMS could shine but Didn't.
i am in New Zealand, and I wanted to go back home to the Netherlands because of COVID-19 but while on the airport they could not allow me on the flight because Australia closed their borders for long transits...
I cannot reach my travel agent(nobody can) and the airline could not do anything for me.
so maybe that money is lost when they declare bankruptcy...
I am now stuck here as flights are very expensive to buy. and I do not have that kind of money.
The government wants to get me back for 900euro, but New Zealand doesn't allow it yet.
now I am here in New Zealand paying rent and money and such without income, In a place, I do not like right now.
With a future in the Netherlands(however long it takes me to get back) where my job is no longer available.
and no sign that the government will help financially...

I am just venting here, and am not blaming UMS... but I haven't seen it work in this instance either...

Try looking out for what opportunities that have emerged thanks to this - I've seen that warehouses and other related businesses are hiring - maybe you could find a job in that sector? Lots of people doing orders online for food etc. right now. Who knows, thanks to this you meet your future wife or find a reason to like the place? Don't shut down, keep you head up and look for what ways out there is and you will find one I'm sure!

True, and I do think that although in this full lockdown it would be hard to find a future wife, haha, and since we are on full lockdown only essential workers are allowed to work. everybody else is forced to stay home.
But yes, I have an idea to maybe get some money and help people in the process.
I was just venting and being positive about it. just a little frustrated I haven't seen UMS work after 8 months and 24 days...
just saw i am actually not on the right thread, haha was thought i was posting on my journal thread...
