VooDoo's quote at the top portrays his desperation differently.
Don't feel bad for a guy with 200k cash that says he has no future. Feel bad for the guy that has no job and $26.00 left in his account. Whoever that may be. Even though he never saved he gets more sorrow from me than VooDoo.
Our Gov. wants to stay pretty much closed up until May 26th. What can open, he has put so many stipulations on, that I don't know wether small business can make a real go out of it. I see a major protest in Madison soon. Mac
My apologies. I thought you were another one of these guys that wanted everyone else to rise up and kick ass/defy quarantine. I have worked 3 jobs at a time for 47 years and busted my butt to save money and now all of it is being consumed while the Overloards want US all back to work to make them rich no matter how many of US die to enrich them.
My job was critical infrastructure. I keep emergency communications centers running as well as hospitals. Yet my insurance was cancelled by my employer, my 401K devastated, my pay cut (before they laid me off so when I return I get's me a big fat pay cut) and, franly, I'm a little distraught with a Wife needing surgery and us having met the deductible and now it's lost.
I apologize. I thought you were another chest thumper telling everyone else to suck it up. I was wrong.
VooDoo
Let people go back to work!!!! Sitting in our homes is toxic. There's no purpose! People need to have a purpose and to feel like they're contributing! Let the people work!!!
LOL!!! " Or live in fear under the sheets in case a virus may get you." Oh no, not the virus!!!!!!!! Sucks how scared people have become.
My life is different for sure now, but both my wife and I have jobs that are deemed "essential" by the gov. Where I live, I think we will be back to "semi normal" in about 3 weeks. Our Governor is a giant pussy and will always try to take the path of least resisitance. We now have more recovered than new cases, and it has been trending that way for a week. We also have very few cases overall and few people per sq mile in my state.
I have been conducting social experiments at work with most of the sheeple I work with. Really interesting results. In my line of work I have a ton of meetings, and prior to this most of them were in a room with other folks. I sort of run the show on many of them, and like many, capitulated when everyone was scared to be in the same room as someone else. This week I changed all that and arranged meeting places where safe distancing can easily be practiced and is far less intrusive than if you even went to a grocery store. Out of 8 people in a meeting, I had 4 takers go back to the old way. The other half still felt "uncomfortable". I am guessing that next week I will pull a few back over to the old way when they see that folks involved in last weeks meeting are still breathing and doing fine. I am hoping once we get some momentum on reopening the economy the majority of people will truly see how statistically small the chances are of being affected by this in the area I live in and get their asses back to work. Time will tell I guess.

Work from home has proven to be a failure for many businesses.as far as getting folks back to work and loosening the chokehold many of us are under? I don't necessarily want the floodgates wide open, but damnitt folks gotta get back to work and businesses opened back up.
Idaho's governor can think for himself, WA, OR, and CA not so much.
And then there's Bill Gates the U of Washington's predictions to deal with as well.

Oregon, Washington and California Form Pact to Jointly Reopen States From COVID-19 Stay-Home Orders
While the stay-at-home orders are state powers, the move highlights the failures of the federal government in addressing the pandemic.www.wweek.com
Apple employees who work in Santa Clara County near the company’s California headquarters have been called back to the office starting in September, where they are expected to work three times per week, according to reports from Bloomberg and The Verge.
Apple employees will be asked to go into their offices on Tuesday and Thursday. Individual teams will pick an additional third day for in-person work.
The move is a sign that Apple remains committed to in-person work. Apple’s culture has always heavily emphasized in-person meetings and demos, and it develops and sells hardware, which requires employees to be physically present.
