Just wondering how many of you folks still have to work thru this epidemic?. I retired at the 1st of the year but got bored after a month and went to work at NAPA. We are considered essential so we have been open through all this. Tell ya what. Business couldnt be better. We are staying really busy. I have had no effects from the virus so far.

I'm not, state just ended our stay at home pay for those state employees who can't telework so those like me (highway maintance/plow operators) are either burning leave/sick time or (trying to) collect unemployment. Good thing I don't have to pick up dead deer for time being. The wife still is as she works in personal care at a senior community.

Still working, I do fabrication for the semiconductor and pharmaceutical industry. My wife is still working too, she does insurance. We're very lucky given we just had to start paying our new mortgage for the house we just built. I have no idea what we'd do and I feel bad for all those that are out of work and can't pay their bills :(

I'm still working, even though I don't want to... Amazon is busy as sh*t, and they gave us a raise to keep people showing up for work. Overtime is now paid Double. I have used (3) vacation days just to limit my exposure. There are now (24) confirmed cases in my building. :cautious: So if I die from CV-19 getting your toilet paper order out for you, who gets my cars??

I'm mistakenly considered essential but the courts are closed so these days are really slow. I work on my own so I can leave early when I want like today I'll be out of here by 3 pm and go work on the GP.....working on the GP helps keep me somewhat sane... :popcorn:
