I'd guess another week. I have friends on snapchat who are out at casinos celebrating St. Pats since bars are closed. Then I have other friends that are trying to plan house parties through group messages. Some people just don't get it and it's going to take even more drastic measures or them getting sick before they do what's best for everyone. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be quarantined already but my job has more than 10 people in the building at all times and it's incredibly hard to keep up with sterilizing everything every time you touch something and what not. All they have is this blue spray and some paper towels to wipe down the desks and stations we work at. For as anal as our owner is, you'd think he'd shut it down on his own accord but, then again, you can never underestimate greed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most kids shouldn't have to repeat the grade I’m an elementary teacher in a different state so I can’t say with much certainty, but I don’t see most high schoolers doing that. Our state is also forgoing state tests, but local universities have told district staff that they will be lenient with the situation. How the universities will work around it, I’m not certain.

MacReady Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 (edited) I’ve been told that if my hotel closes down I get to live in hotel ALONE with my dogs and get paid 24 hours per day just for being here. Gotta get my ******* (dogs) The Shining twin outfits. Edited March 18, 2020 by Outpost31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikesfan89 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 People seem to really be harping on this greed and money thing. If some people shut the doors to a business they might not open again. Not everyone is in it to be a gazzilionare 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Closing down a store and forfeiting all that stock, plus paying your employees...lots of stores wouldn't be able to reopen. I wouldn't call that greed. Plus, he's feeding people. It's a good purpose, even though there's money being made. Edit: thought I was quoting dome. My bad, don't know where you work. The point sort of stands. May not be greed. If he closes the store, could be for good. Edited March 18, 2020 by theJ I'm an idiot 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theJ Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I went to my local Walmart this afternoon. Milk was well stocked. Some stuff was out, but other than TP nothing was out completely. I think this part of the ordeal will be over soon. People are pretty well stocked and the stores are doing a good job of keeping up, for the most part.

You wouldn't be as good as I am. I'm very good at my job, and they'd pay me to NOT come in if I said that's what it would take to keep me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Ben Gibbard from Death Cab/Postal Service/etc is playing for free daily on his youtube channel. I haven't heard of any other "major" artists doing this yet but hopefully it starts a trend. He's live now if anyone needs some background music. John Legend was live on Instagram for a couple hours today playing piano and singing (it also helped that Chrissy was sitting on the piano in just a towel). For those of you with kids, Josh Gad (Olaf from Frozen, was also one of the Broadway debut actors for Book of Mormon) is going online daily now to stream his reading of children's books. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to come here, break through my barricaded front door (which means navigating my moat and that's after you get past the gate of my complex - that's right, we fancy, we got a moat inside the gate), and staple my lips shut before that will ever happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
