We have had “taking applications - Help wanted”, On our sign for 2 weeks (because of the surge for grocery demand) We have received 3 people asking for Applications NONE of those applications have been return to us - NONE!
Gas Station across the street is only open from 1-5 now because his staff quit. And it is just him and his wife running it.
Can’t Run a grocery store paying cashiers/stockers $27 per hour. My managerial staff doesn’t make that. Food prices are already going up. March 15th Dozen eggs cost me $1.62 (retail $1.99) Yesterday my supplier quoted me $6.23 a dozen.
Just an insider tip from a grocer — The food shortage is coming! The first signs are EGGS, MILK, MEAT (especially pork). Yeast and Flour (I can get in 50lbs bags, but forget about the 1 or 5lb bags) My suppliers can’t get them or are very limited. Most canned goods now have a 3-4 week back stock.
The cure is going to be A LOT worse than the virus
BTW We still have ZERO cases of covid in the county.
I can think of one more thing we need to do: protect businesses from WuFlu related civil suits. Suits from employees and customers. Nationwide.
He's a linux user at home, and in his spare time, he creates mods for Fallout 4, and live streams on his YouTube channel on the weekends.
Yes
Wise they are not.
The crack is larger than they will fix, so the whole windshield will have to be replaced. Since his employer is Geico, he has his car insurance through them. He’d still have to pay the full deductible. I’ve always had full-glass coverage with my car insurance, and never had to pay a deductible to have a windshield replaced or repaired. Any damage that was done to any of my windshields, was always caused by some car or truck kicking back a stone/rock that hit my screen.
“They’ll still have to pay taxes on that unemployment won’t they?”
Yes, but the total is still greater than their total income.
Yep. The recovery is still a ways down the road. The entire
supply cycle has to get started from the ground up. Good Luck.
1. Work out a deal with your neighbor across the street and share your staff with him. You'll agree to pay them a 15% premium on their time, and he should pay you a small fee on top of their hourly pay.
2. You go to work over there for part of the day, too. He can probably extend his hours with all the additional help.
3. Have him come over and help you out when he's closed and you're open.
If the prices you're quoting are accurate, it sounds like you're going to have a much bigger problem than staffing pretty soon. Nobody is going to be buying a lot of groceries at those prices.
Send me a Freep-mail. Where are you?
Maaan, the division of this country into two distinct sides is speeding up!
Like I said, my son doesn't tell me much...just bits and pieces. He's the type of kid, that would send an email to me and say: "Mom, I had to have my leg amputated today, but everything's fine." His wife and I didn't find out that they'd found a nodule on his lung until they were prepping him for his abdominal surgery. And he hates being questioned. If you make a suggestion to him, he claim you're treating him like a kid who can't think for himself. He's 49, going on 15. Thank God they don't have any kids, and probably never will. And although I worry about him every day, it's a good thing I don't live closer to him.
It bothered me, every multi-billion or trillion dollar bipartisan spending bill bothers me.
It ALWAYS comes back to bite us.
That is why congress needs to be replaced and charged with treason.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Usurpation Day was the time for that.
A rushed $2.3 Trillion D’rat porkulus spending bill, passed with complaint by our Senate and signed under no-win crisis duress by our POTUS.
America’s progressive cancer must be treated, aggressively. Now!
My friend also - is making a ton more staying home on unemployment. Yes. We can be controlled and have our freedoms taken for a price.
Yesterday my supplier quoted me $6.23 a dozen.
You need a new supplier...
I assume you forgot the sarcasm tag.
We the People need to hit up our politicians by starting to quote the Constitution and Declaration and ask them point blank why a virus would defer ANY of our freedoms.
