School Cancellations
Before COVID, teachers posted all of thier assignments on one website for students to get done sometime throughout the day. Since COVID we have to do zoom for each class, not for too long for each class, but doing zoom sucks because you have to wait around for your next class. Before you could just get all your assignments done in an hour if you could and go outside afterwards.

Cinema. People were at home too long they all forgot how to behave. It was never great but it’s like a god dam zoo now

ETA: I got covid in February 2020. Most nations hadn’t even read the COVID memo yet. I’m happy I am alive, most of the days anyway.
COVID ruined the idea I had that people were inherently good and kind. Everyone showed their true colours and there have definitely been things said and done that can’t be forgotten or unheard. Friendships and marriages destroyed. Makes me sad, but also I feel it’s good to know who your actual friends are, no matter what choice you made.

Coughing in public. Used to cough to cover up a fart, now I have to fart to cover a cough or sneeze
On a work-related note, conference calls for meetings. Gone are the days where you can just have a conference call at work without needing to have your camera turned on – and if you don’t have video turned on, everyone questions why. I don’t always need to be on camera! The Zoom burnout is real.
Sick days. Now the expectation is that I can stay home but still call into all meetings.
My partner is an RT (respiratory therapist, AKA front line), and I would say the morale of pretty much all of healthcare workers. The burnout is so real, and it’s gotten monstrously worse since covid.
Covid broke many brains and those people will never be the same
