But I was told that everything is going to be alright and to stop freaking the frick out...

quote:

The board has been filled with people bitching and complaining about the Coronavirus and how everything is shutting down.

There are some people who think this is a political thing. Some people think its an overreaction. People are bitching because their life is put on hold.

How about this? Personally, I think the government is doing a pretty good job with this. I am sure that is an unpopular take around here, but I get it. At first, I thought it was overreaction. I really did, but now I get it. It is mostly about resources and to not overwhelm the system we need to all just chill and do our part.

It's not the end of the world. If you woke up this morning it is a good day. Sometimes you have to sacrifice things. That's life. I hate that there are no sports on, but I get it. I hate that there are some people who are so fricking selfish they go out and buy so much of certain supplies that it leaves their fellow humans having to go around looking for those supplies because some a-hole felt the need to overstock. But what are you going to do?

Calm the frick down. Three months from now we will be back to normal (or getting there) and life will go on. Be thankful for what you have. Take a deep breath. Let it out slowly and just be cool. Like a HS teacher used to tell us "It'll be alright in the morning"..

I’m typing right now from a dental office, sitting in a dental chair.

Yeah, the government types get a check no matter what. The rest who count on private enterprise have been thrown out w/ no regard.

Actually, the Socialist-In-Chief, President Trump, has just announced direct payments/subsidies to people adversely effected.

Mine called me in today, and I just finished with my cleaning. Beginning tomorrow, dental procedures only. No cleanings.

They stopped seeing patients at some of the dental schools last week, started graduating the D4's early too so they could stretch PPE.

This sucks for my good friend. He was hoping this wouldn't happen to his practice.
