Yes, I have my letter to carry from my work.

Remember all those old movies where the Nazis would ask to see your papers at checkpoints. Yet here we are.

You're well trained in the delivery of the Top Secret Passcode: "Da shake machine be broked."

Should be good to go, literally go.

I wrote my own letter that says I'm going to the grocery store, hopefully that will suffice...

I've got one even though law enforcement where I live have said they will not pull people over for being out in public. This might be something they are doing over liability concerns to protect themselves from being sued by employees or something along those lines.

I work for the FAA and I can pull up a critical to infrastructure directive on my iPhone. I have an FAA and airport badge. I also have an expired inspection sticker on my car.

Yep, we also have a bunch that our customers sent out saying we provide an essential service to them. I only carry the one, but our field guys probably have 10-15.

I've got one addressed to "To whom it may concern".
It's just a PDF that anyone could make a copy for themselves.

I had one for hurricanes in years past, but my business card should be enough these days.

No, but I have my work ID with the hospital name, I figure that will be good enough.

Yep, got ours end of the week last week....DHS stamp and all. Rumor mill is that there will be a time we may need to show these to get around as if there will be checkpoints or something.

I’ve been wearing my high school letterman jacket in case I get stopped driving around, looking for open drive-thru Daiquiri shops, essentially.
