Are truckers and railroad workers not helping to keep stores stocked?


Not enough public visibility and they really aren't putting themselves at near as great of a risk as say a medical worker or store clerk. I mean, I appreciate the hell out of them but I don't think they'll come out as the heroes in this whole clusterfrick.

I’m going to nominate the women who are sewing masks for healthcare workers. What a bunch of self-promoting, prideful, look-at-me’s.

Followed closely by the busybodies who are putting in overtime on NextDoor, reporting groups of kids at a playground, trying to rally support for strict enforcement of stay at home requirements, and posting pics of dogs that possibly have Coronavirus roaming the neighborhood. They also wait for someone to post about how their at-risk elderly parents can’t get cat food to eat or whatever and then swoop in to volunteer to share their food. They think they are being virtuous but they are just showing that they are selfish hoarders.

I have issues.

Is this what you call anti-virtue signalling?

Facebook has health care workers in front


Given the number I heard stating how they are "on the front line", pretty sure they are gunning for it the most.

Health care workers and restaurant owners/employees are the two out in front right now. For sure. But it ain't over yet for grocery store workers and just wait until boomers and trumpkins start with truckers and, somehow, the military

Y'all didn't do shite but drop your company's firewall protocols.


It's not like we didn't have the technology to do so before.

All the Truck drivers and Railroaders I know are complaining the companies are making them go to work. Of course on Facebook they are the backbone of the country.
