Getting restarted and opening back up.

[Boise_Chief]

It looks like smaller less populated states will lead the charge. Yes I know Texas and California are working that direction. Places like my home state of Idaho have not been as hard hit. The real question is how do you open back up.

I think many maybe even most companies can go back to work with a little intelligent and innovative work.

Basic offices could still have many people work from home. Those that can not you could run 2 shifts to bring the number of employees and distance between each to a reasonable manageable result. All employees can be made responsible for sanitizing their work area.

Your big issues come in on big venues, weddings theaters etc.

What is your industry and your ideas for safe re opening of it.

My thought is that we could discuss solutions. We all know the problems. How can you make your industry safe.

I’m essential. Didnt quit.

As big of a deal as the big events are, supply chain has more impact. It is absolutely critical to avoid interruption.

I’ve actually been busier over the last month at work. Even more pressure to keep that whole internet thing working, especially with more people calling in at work.

Same. School done for the rest of the year here. Trying to get get these devices out to elementary students has been a fricken nightmare.

Never stopped working.
Arkansas never did a stay at home order. Restaurants, Theatres, and Beauty parlors can limit numbers, do reservations or appointments only to keep some social distancing while bringing businesses back online slowly.

My industry is cleaning and building maintenance we never quit but on the janitorial side small offices closed but the grocery related business doubled.

I am interested in seeing what our Governor will say tomorrow. New cases have been low once testing has "caught up" . Out stay at home expires tomorrow and the word is that it will be modified.

My company has been unaffected by the virus other than I'm working slightly more.

In AZ I think we're looking at a soft reopening soon. Problem is the restaurants and bars. I wonder how many of the mom-and-pop type places are going to reopen. Mainly because those are the places where I eat and drink and play pool.

Restaurants can open, reduce capacity by 50 percent. The issue is that they may not be able to make a profit. Prices have to rise or people have to eat in a bigger window of time.

And you are assuming everyone wants to get out and be around others. It will be a half capacity crowd at half capacity. I guess that's something.

you can say hey we are open for business. But, until we have wide spread testing to know how far and wide it’s spread and contact tracing in place, people are not going to feel safe, go out in numbers to support businesses to stay afloat.

That's just assumption.

of course it is. This is virgin territory. Know one knows for sure whats going to happen.

My assumption is based on how the public responded after 9/11. We were a bunch of scared pussy's. Afraid to go out, travel etc. There is a way way better chance of getting this virus and dying than ever even being in a terrorist attack.

I agree, we will lose 40% of restaurants in the next 6 mos. But some will survive. The economic fallout will be huge.
