I know that’s a OT type comment but I gave the girl that typically takes care of us for a Saturday night dinner wa more than that.

The point of this thread was to discuss how you are being affected. Maybe those that you see weekly that are affected. Sorry you are a cheap piece of shite that you don’t feel bad about your server at Taco Bell that usually give 20 cents . Those people at Taco Bell are trying too.

Go eat a dick.

Damn dude, I’ve always envied the cool stuff you get to see and do at Stennis. There is just no way this can continue into the Fall. No freaking way, huh? Most of the country will be out of business.

I ha e to keep reminding myself how lucky I am to have a job right now. I hope it works out for you Golfer. It will, it has too.

I have been fortunate. Healthy, employed and working. I try to be sensitive to those struggling with both health and economic concerns/fears/struggles.

Not really affected. I have the backing of my parents. I do want to go back to work because being quarantined is essentially house arrest. Not having to get dressed.

Not yet, thank Jesus.

Wife is nurse - still goes to work 3-4 nights on hotline for calls on virus.

I still go in every day - I just close my office door. No layoffs in our Manufacturing division or reported cases company wide. We are an FTZ and manufacture metal laminates- business is very steady.

Fred, to be honest, to some degree it is affecting me in terms of taking extra precautions because of my condition getting pneumonia wouldn't be a good thing.

There have been some lost work hours the past 3 weeks, but nothing to complain about considering there are people losing their job

I definitely haven't spent as much money. This past Saturday I went pick up takeout from Chimes and they were doing everything curbside. I gave a 40% tip to the guy who was going get orders and then coming out to bring them. Not sure why they didn't have someone helping him, but he was busting his arse.

My son owns a water business associated with the oil industry. Between the CV9, Russian Oil and Arabian Oil, they laid off over half their company last week. Closed 2 of their 5 storage offices as well. Big concern is how many of these people will be available to rehire if it picks back up. But thank the Lord no direct illnesses.

I have a lot more time to post and a lot less money. But we are financially very conservative so we will make it.

I am presumed positive by my doctor and waiting on test results.

One hour I think I have it the next I don’t...symptoms come in waves so I guess I have something.
