can we quarantine the whole of CA? Or at least So-Cal? Maybe build a wall?
mitrucker Thanks this. -
Now I know our Govt is going a little nutty.
Walmart says 2 weeks pay for anyone told to stay home from the job no ifs buts or maybes.
Uncle Sam is fixing to get rid of payroll taxes until Election. Maybe.
Washington state is more of a concern. They are talking possibly fencing off the state at the border, nothing in nothing out. Lock it down. All of it. One would consider all that food in the Yakima would be a problem then.
Even state benefits to those told to sit home.
What good is American Dollars if you dont have any place open to spend it at? -
Called dispatch to change equipment for today's trip.
Sounded like he was in a can.
I asked if they made them take calls whilst in the toilet.
He said not yet and laughed.
Said the dispatch crew was working from home as an experiment due to the virus scare.Wasted Thyme Thanks this. -

I am not claiming to be any expert. Perhaps I've been lucky so far, I don't know.
When I was young, too young to work, I traded fake money. Took 1 million Monolopy money and bought Hot Topic when the stock split. Made like 30 million fake money. I can't remember what I started with, it might have been more than a million, this was back in the 90s.
Trends are important to kids, really important. They can tell you what's hot and what's not. Back in the 90s when I was a critter Hot Topic was all the rant and rave. They are no longer publicly traded.
Nowadays E-sports is what all the kiddos are looking at. E-sports ETF "ESPO" has been doing well. I like talking to kids about what's cool. They can give you some good leads sometimes.okmaybeno Thanks this. -
Truckstops will actually be one of the fastest places within the entire country to spread this virus. I hadn’t even so much is have a common cold for over five years prior to starting my trucking career. I’ve been out here about 18 months and had six colds and the flu twice. Or some variation of different things. I attribute all of that to going in and out of truckstops. You people are killing yourselves if you think because you’re isolated in your truck you’re somehow safer. We are around other truckers who travel all about the country at truck stops. We are probably at about the highest risk of contracting this virus of any profession out there. The fact is you’re probably not going to avoid it and going to catch it and hopefully it will be the more mild version. Yes, Mini ailing and unhealthy truckers are going to die sitting in their trucks out on the road. I guarantee you it’s coming.bentstrider83 Thanks this.

You will find me buried in the strong drink walkway shelving singing a song working on a bottle among many bottles. If I am a pending deadman... I intend to get to St Peter in a very happy and jovial mood after that audacious journey up the golden staircase lol.

When all of them are closed. People sit home unable to spend money. Then turn to gambling for that last toilet paper roll.BackwoodsGA Thanks this.

Oh good. I can take the truck home. YAY.
If they pass a law saying that the employer has to pay me 3000 for two weeks home off....
