Saw another that was using this time to do a remodel and had his staff all painting the walls and giving the place a make over. I thought it was great that he had his staff doing work when he could have hired it done cheaper, but then I got to wondering if they'd rather have been drawing the new unemployment. Of course all the crap chain restaurants say they'll be opening up as soon as possible. That should spike the TP sales all over again when those grease factories open their doors back up. |

I definitely support trying to patronize smaller shops. For the small shops that go under, it is unlikely the land lord is going to find another tenant. It would be nice if small businesses could do a fast and easy bankruptcy and then open up again in the same location. If they were profitable before the pandemic you would expect the same shop to be profitable afterwards. But our system isn't geared for that. And I suppose I should stop at this point anyway. |

In Canada the margins are so small for restaurants especially in small towns it will be hard for them to recover.

Which brings up another concern of mine...if they're required to run only partial capacity in order to reopen, many simply will not be able serve the volume of customers they need to survive. I doubt the property owners are going to be willing to only charge partial rent to accommodate that. The outlook is pretty bleak for the industry.
