I had to talk a close friend off the ledge the other night. His business is on the edge of bankruptcy. 20 years of hard work all gone. He’s making arrangements to sell off his equipment and will be lucky to get 30 cents on the dollar.
Two kids with special needs, a mortgage, and his wife got furloughed this week.
And there’s nothing I can do to help.
I’m done playing lockdown.
Just done.

Your friend is so lucky to have you. God bless you and prayers up for your dear friend
Before the lock downs hit I had 2 interviews scheduled and 2 other jobs that I had been emailing back and forth on. Within a week of the shutdown, all but one had essentially suspended hiring and the other did the next week.
Luckily I hadn’t out in my 2 weeks yet, but the new job could have been the difference between renting and owning. It is evil what they are doing.
“His business is on the edge of bankruptcy. 20 years of hard work all gone. “
These are the casualties of this that no one wants to talk about, and there have to be millions.
I just can’t imagine I haven’t worked in 10 years financially really well off healthy and this shut down has depressed the he’ll out of me . I just wonder about how it affects the much less fortunate
