I hope they all survive this Corona Plandemic, and are able to bounce back. I'm fortunate to still be working, and while not a religious man, my thoughts and feelings are with them and hoping they will be back to work soon. I have been there and its not a good situation to be in!

Most of the people I know haven't missed one day of work through this thing. Many of them work in industry, and they didn't shut down. Temperature checks several times a day, no problems.

Most Americans are still working.

Shouldn't this be in the O/T area?

It would appear. Maybe a mod can move it there?

This should be in O/T but Skatulaki my family and I, being one of the 'non-essential' businesses, appreciate it.

My hope is most of these are temporary unemployment due to the shutdown. By the end of June, we'll know the real figures... including those who went back to work because businesses have re-opened, and those who ultimately lost their jobs permanantly during and as a result of the virus / shutdown. Hopefully the numbers improve quickly. I was unemployed for 3 months after the .COM bust back in the 90s... and I remember how much that sucked.

I think this is when the robots slip in.

There is a huge demand for contactless commerce, and the vast majority of the non-essentials in service sector, it could be a long road.

Maybe UBI is what they want?
