"What the heck are you going to do when the carry outs start closing"
They started to close around here and I for one will not miss them.
Last Tuesday I went and sat in a car line two blocks long to get ribs for $10 a half slab.
They were great but as soon as my wife and I got done with them I started to think back to an hour or so when I bought them.
The carry out was passing out ribs and handing money back and forth as fast as they could.
Nobody selling had a mask on and they all were passing money and ribs being packaged.
They were taking no precaution at all to protect their customers and themselves from the virus.
Today is Friday and I'm ok with no symptoms but still scared as heck because of how stupid I was to buy ribs from them.
As of last Tuesday i'll not buy carry out from anywhere only buying from large chain grocery stores when their not crowded.
Sorry to say I got a facebook pass it on about a pizza shop owner in the county below us dying from the virus.
I feel for the family but the other side of it makes me mad that they may have passed the virus on to many people staying open to make a buck.
There's no difference between Sally the waitress loosing her job and the owner of a small carry out loosing their job and closing.
There both out of work we just feel worse about the small business carry out closing.
From here out it's Digiorno instead of local, burgers on the grill instead of Wendy's and you know the rest.
So sorry the pizza shop owner passed but how may might he have killed or yet to kill because he stayed open?
I hope the number is zero but I doubt it.
Way back when I serviced typewriters in the largest hospital in town.
Back then the bosses didn't care if you went to work sick or not and you'd better be 'real' sick to stay home having to report in every day.
To this day it bothers me and rightfully so it should that I so often while ill rode up and down in patient elevators with patients.
Yes i'm sorry about it but didn't know any better and yes did it for the money and fear of loosing my job.
But it was wrong and carry outs which do not know for sure nobody working for them has it should close or at the least not be bought from.
This will pass and so will all of us, it's only a matter of time for both.
