What does it feel like to be paid not to work?

In a new paper I discuss the experiences of furloughed workers I interviewed from across the UK. My study revealed that, for some, furlough became a disorientating experience.

⏰This month's research spotlight article explores the impact time out of work during COVID-19 had on how we socialised, travelled and worked.

Through 35 interviews, the research revealed how disorientation was felt in different ways.

Honoured that the RGS-IBG have highlighted my research paper 'Living a ‘shadow life’: The disorientations of losing orientation and agency while waiting through furlough' on their website.

Does anyone know of Harvard referencing exercises for students who've never used Harvard? I am looking for games/exercises that can be used in a pair or small group.

Settling into my new post, I am now looking for potential PhD candidates interested in digital geographies, politics of refusal, urban interventions and/or geographical theory.

Funding applications would be made to the South Coast DTP. Get in touch. https://t.co/L8P4AIHWuP

@PaulGriffin_ Thanks for organising the session and discussions..it was fun to meet and chat with everyone!

[Victoria J E Jones @VictoriaJEJones]

@MichGwynn We didn't make any recordings but some of the papers are out or due to come out. My PhD thesis 'Waiting Through Furlough: A Geography of Disorientation' explored different forms of disorientation. It has sections which may help you find further literature https://t.co/CPPunk45SO

Sad to hear of the passing of Kris Kristopherson RIP. Not many know that he played an open air gig in South Wales in 1972. It was held just outside Newport in the Caerleon Roman Amphitheatre and was mainly attended by local college & school kids! https://t.co/nj9VOf83qt
