Corona virus. Stay home or work?

Some stores are wise.
Hopefully the rest follow suit before everything blows over and the nutjobs start trying to return everything when their bills are due. Maybe learn to not panic and hoard stuff.

 

Airliners are the only method of travel where fresh air is brought in to the system, heated to a few hundred degrees, cooled to almost freezing, filtered through a HEPA filter and given to passengers. Wanting to find a method of travel that takes as long as virus incubation period means walking or covered wagon. The problem are the people coughing, not the machine they are riding in.

 

And how's that going to make me want to start flying? I've never flown before in my life and not about to start anytime soon. They'll have to drag me kicking and screaming into one of those things before I even consider it. Yeah, the air is recirculated and cleaned. I get that. But as you said, it's other people actually coughing in the plane and causing a panic. Couple that with all the post-9/11 security restrictions that still remain in place and I'll gladly swim across the ocean if I had to travel internationally.

 

California and New York gov's have issued statewide " Stay at Home" orders. I dislike "Shelter in Place", it's a stupid made up phrase.
They say it is for everyone except "essential" employees, yet don't say what "essential" is.
What's a driver to do if he shows up at a place of business and it's closed. Park out front for a month, til the virus is over? Can't take it back to where they got it, because by that time, the shipper place is closed.
The downward spiral starts. If you haul groceries, you are in a better position.

 

I see TA still has its fast food dining rooms open for eat in orders.

 

How do you know my Mom?
Cuz I'm sure she dropped me on my head as a baby, just to see if I was worthy of existing.
And in many different different ways since, She has been testing my very existence

 

Loaded up and trucking. And trucking. And trucking.

I urge any drivers with virus to shelter in Central Point Oregon.

 

Restaurant is open for to go orders as well.

Buffet is closed, but roller dogs are open. Logical.

 

What's in Central Point, OR? I'm a little slow I guess. I know there's a Pilot truckstop and a few fast food joints, other than that, I must of missed the joke somewhere along the line.
