I can only imagine how bad the food is going to be. The lack of managers & checks and balances in place. It likely will be D-Squad food. I always notice the difference between how things taste even at chain restaurants from 6-8pm compared to 1045pm.

I hate to admit because I don't want to scavenge stores and want to keep pumping money into local business, but this is where I'm at with food quality expectations. While food delivery is certainly on the rise, even before this, I've found most already falls way short of dine-in before the struggle of ingredients and staff give a ****.

If it lasts long enough, substitute inland areas in the graf above for the East / Gulf Coast and it's Katrina II: this time with viral pneumonia. On-edge cop plugs a black dude in an urban area for any ambiguous reason? Ferguson II: Electric Boogaloo. Food supplies get cut off and cannot be replenished in any sort of orderly fashion as you mention? Riots. Water or power goes out? Same thing. Shit, think if ISPs conk out. How many people have no way of distracting themselves that doesn't involve Netflix, Youtube or Pornhub? On that note, I'd suggest downloading everything you can if your streaming services allow it for offline use. Can't imagine there won't be unbearable lag at points if enough people are sheltering in place all at once. |

Hoping it is the shortest recession in history. I have 30 people working for me and it will be a rough quarter or two. I wish you well DJ. Keep the chin up and watch your 6. |

And man, we'd turned a corner from mid-February into early March. I bought a new truck 2 weeks ago because I was sure we'd weathered the storms of the expansion in Qs 3 and 4. We've been grinding hard since last March and it looked like we were going to re rewarded. That's what's so damn frustrating about all of this - sometimes there's just not a damn thing you can do even when you're pretty sure you've done everything right. |

My Dad lost 75K worth of business in the last three days.
No matter what, we’re in this together. Just have to weather the storm and not create a worse one on our own. |
