Much easier to list non essential business. There are a lot on the essential list.

Oil and gas. Which is fine with me. I'd much rather be 200 miles offshore collecting a pay check than fighting over toilet paper with you people

I would typically agree, but we aren’t even in maintenance currently. The FEs who usually tend to the sites in their region would make complete sense. However, we are currently doing relo sites, basically building new towers right next to old ones that are cheaper to lease for the carriers.

I mean I’m happy I get to go to work, just doesn’t make a whole lot of sense because we aren’t working on operational sites
