Restaurants here can still do takeout and delivery. Just no sit down. Of course they're still going to be hurting bad. Two of my friends own bicycle rental shops, they haven't been told if they'll be able to stay open. People can still go outside for exercise.

Seriously. I said this to my wife last night. We're very fortunate - I support the semiconductor industry (exempted from shutdown) and she's in banking. But just about everyone else we know is impacted, including my dad (small business owner - construction work). This is going to break a lot of businesses, no doubt.

My in-law's have their own business, in which they have seen a sharp decline in their business lately.

The government is talking about corporate bailouts and sending cash to Americans. While this is great and dandy, they need to put family-owned businesses first, as they have nothing to fall back on, and put less focus on the big@$$ companies. God forbid corporate executives/shareholders make a million less than last year....

Wild week for sure. Started with tele-medicine being thrown at me with no heads up...all of my projects took a lower priority. Then had to back fill for support because employees were beginning to work from home and needed to be set up. Then an hour before I left work, they told us a shelter in place, nobody going into work until further notice.
A mad house ensued. They told the employees that I would be available today to help with remote connections...um, yeah...lol

Im going to help an employee that I like this morning. But I do forsee this call lasting for many many hours because I cant figure out why their remote connection isnt working... Hard to troubleshoot physical stuff over the phone, you know...

There is no cases in my county so far. I'm playing this by ear. When it hits my area, I'll say bye-bye.
