A year has passed since life turned upside down Poll Yes What a difference a year makes! One year ago – the day after Good Friday last year, I started my first day of a temporary layoff due to the impact of COVID-19. From the brief time the first stories started coming over the newswire about this new and mysterious adversary to human life to the day I worked my last shift ironically on Good Friday, I never could have imagined life would turn upside down so quickly. I doubt anyone did as we went about business as usual working, going to the gym, meeting friends for drinks or dinner and just doing what we always did.
