First, I can’t speak to any state but WA, but any guns sales in WA were approved by a county Sheriff so in effect the state condoned and allowed those sales. Directly or indirectly. Secondly, you’re worried about tens of thousands of gun sales and failed to even mention the 2.5 MILLION NICS checks in Illinois.

And…

Well to be fair,

You could be right but I’m thinking it might be Mega cheap, you know like Superman cheap, Mega Man cheap and that would make $50 Ultraman cheap

Yeah, no kidding. The title of the article says “super cheap” and then they plainly state the Vizio can be had for 1/3rd of the price at $160. Does that make the Vizio INSANELY cheap or what?

Maybe a take on

Laying off employees isn’t necessarily a bad thing. First, per your concern about putting people at risk, this allows people to shelter at home. Second, many employees in small businesses making at or near minimum wage are getting more income right now than if they were working. So fuck you asshole. Do you own or…

Yeah, that was kind of messed up the way they did it. We may need the left over money due to rising prices for meat and produce. As is typical with government programs it’s a bit of a double edged sword. It’s great they got the money to us quickly but I feel like they could have structured the program a little better…

I’m glad you don’t work for me either because you seem like an idiot and you would probably hurt yourself on the job. Go fuck yourself, ok? You know nothing about me or how I take care of my employees. If my employees are too afraid to come to work they can stay home and try to work it out with the State Unemployment…

No, it said many businesses. I don’t know that I agree with the “many” statement. None of the business owners I know, and I know more than just 1 or 2, aren’t worried about employees making more money. I am not worried about employees making more money. I am worried about my business surviving through this and I am…

Actually restaurants have required some basic forms of PPE in the past, gloves, hats, or hair nets in some cases protective eye wear. We are now asking people to put on masks which frankly,there are varying opinions as to whether that protects customers or workers more. Since our kitchen staff doesn’t interact with…

How do you know I am a statistical outlier? I would bet I am not. In fact I would bet that most businesses, especially small businesses are doing their best to take care of their employees. Amazon, Walmart et al are large and represent a massive amount of workers but they do not represent the majority of businesses.

Som…

I love all the rationalization of why people shouldn’t have to work. Get real people. Do you think the working people are going to be happy when they see perfectly healthy and capable people not working and getting paid?

You know what? If you get nothing making $120K, guess what? I’m retiring! Let’s see, between the…

Yes, I am telling the truth. And no, I am not the only one in my area doing this. As for politicians and Wall Street, it’s really not the issue here and I’m pretty sure it’s Democrats running NY, California, Washington, Michigan, Louisiana, New Jersey and Illinois all of which have had their more than fair share of…

That’s not entirely accurate. 75% has to be spent on payroll. Only 25% can be spent on rent and utilities and mortgage interest (not business loan interest). At least if you expect it to be forgiven, ie free money. From the SBA

That’s kind of the same boat we are in. You’re trying to do the right thing but the different stimulus plans are working against each other. I’m all for my employees getting as much as they can during this time. The good news for PPP is that it’s a 1% loan so I assume if you don’t use it for payroll you can just…

Not sure how long that program will last, probably not forever. As far as I know anyone getting UE benefits will get the $600. Frankly a lot of the stimulus coming from the Feds is somewhat undefined. We got what appears to be a stimulus check deposited to our account. Not really sure why because by my calculations we…

I don’t know what state you live in but in WA state you won’t make nearly as much on UE as you will working. The federal supplement is helping some people who are at the lower end of the pay spectrum. I haven’t checked the exact amount but as I recall UE here is about 1/4 your normal wages.

Bull shit and you know it.

Complaining about staffing? I’m not sure I was complaining about staffing, can you give me some idea where that post is? I may have been complaining that the stimulus programs the Feds have are contradictory in that on the one hand they are encouraging people to take unemployment with a supplemental $600/wk but at the…

So they are afraid of getting sick at work but no so afraid to go sit on a crowded beach where they might get sick. In other words they are hypocrites.
