Could You Stay in Business or No?

Fix my old paid for equipment, run it, no freight, no problem.

 

Hope is just as contagious as fear....

 

What is the purpose of closing up shop? If you let all your driver's go because they are worried about getting sick then what are they going to do? Go home and blow up a plastic bubble and hide out for 3 months? No they are still going to go out and do essential things and still be exposed. Might as well be exposed and making money.

I listened to a press conference tonight and someone mentioned closing down schools. Someone also mentioned how pointless that is because highschool aged teens are still going to find a way to hang out together and it will do little to limit exposure. Kinda like when school gets cancelled due to a blizzard but you will still find groups of kids hanging out together.

This fear mongering has to stop or it's going to cripple us all

 

I worry about what might happen at 2:50 into this HYPOTHETICAL video:

 

What part of Florida are you in? And are you any good at carpentry?

 

I'm a company driver, but I'm fortunate, and I've planned well.
Debt free with a good nest egg.

I could hole up for 18 months if I had to.

 

A massive advertising campaign is needed to inform the public of good hygiene practices. Every time I go to a store I see the cashier dabbing the fingers with spit and then touching the customers groceries. Same with buffet lines where people lick their fingers and then touch the utensils. WTF.

In the 70's we learned about Typhoid Mary in our health class. Then we watched a movie showing how to be safe around food and what not to do in public: spitting on sidewalks, licking fingers, picking our noses etc. I can still remember the class erupting in laughter when the movie showed a man picking his nose while he was preparing food in a restaurant. Not so funny in today's environment.

 

Naples temporarily until I head back to Michigan in May to figure out what I want to do with my semi.

Been doing it forever having grown up with a dad who owned a development company. Not my favorite thing to do but it has kept my nose above water the last 10 years without having to actually get a real job .

 

Universities in Arkansas, Plural are closing. Some schools are well.

What the college kids are doing is flying out on cutrate fares to places they would never afford in normal times.

Kind of like the old nuclear duck and cover under the desk. One reason is that the pile of ashes under there would be matched with the master assigned desk chart later for burial.
