I am retired but ironically if I wanted to go back to work would be in demand. Not interested. But I worked my way through college as a phlebotomist and you never lose the touch. If hospital staff can't keep up with demand, not yet there locally, I could volunteer. So far in California we don't have enough tests or supplies, but patients are spread out geographically enough so no hospital is overwhelmed. Yet HCP, that is great.
If you or others end up in this situation, I'd call your mortgage lender and tell them you need to pause making payments. Sometimes you can add extra payments at the end many years from now. Save cash to buy food medical emergencies. Nobody will be foreclosed soon. I'd do the same for a big car loan or better yet get rid of any car worth over $5k
I’m already one of the lucky ones with a back end for the time being, trying to get some money in the front door, if you know what I mean. DO YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN TELL ME NOW.
I saw it last night. I wondered if that was you because of the physical resemblance. Damn, you're kind of eloquent. Kind of shocked me.
Politics aside, I really hope that Trump turns out lucky with the smoke he was blowing about the malaria drug and antibiotic. We desperately need some stroke of luck like that or this thing is going to take months to run its course and by then we may be talking Great Depression levels of economic collapse.
I'm sorry, I really can't root for Trump to get lucky. And please don't try to put such disgusting imagery in our heads--I'm fairly sure that violates the TOS.
In this one instance, him being “fortunate” ( sorry for the disturbing imagery) would only be because of something that would be a tremendous blessing to humanity.
Really poor attitude to have at a time like this, reminds me of Bill Maher wishing for the economy to crumble just to spite Trump. Never mind the millions being affected. I realize you were probably joking but a lot of people really have these attitudes. Check out twitter. I honestly believe there are people out there pining for this to get worse just so they can have the smug satisfaction of saying ‘I told you so’. The depths of people’s contempt can be scary.
Yeah, I don't think you got the joke. There's a colloquial meaning to the term "getting lucky," which the sentence you deleted in quoting me was pointing to.
I got the joke. It just brought up an interesting point about some people’s attitudes right now. Not a criticism of you personally, I know you were making a joke.
I don’t think this needs to get worse for Trump to look like a gigantic idiot and firmly cement his place as the worst leader in American history who failed the entire country during its most pressing time. Nobody wants this to “get worse”. He has fucked himself plenty already
do you think Rush Limbaugh, Hannity , or the average Republican was hoping the economy would thrive under Obama? no cause then their rhetoric would blow up in their face it goes both ways
Okay, so lets say I have two car payments and a boat payment. Need to sell the boat. But wait. No one has any money to buy. So I have to sell for far less than what I owe to even try to get it sold. Come on now. NO, blanket checks should not be written, but there are some who make more than others, who will still be in the same exact situation.
im completely fine financially. I think the bailouts should be for the restaurant works and those type of folks who are losing their job and shit because of this. stimulating the economy in a time when it’s going to shit is the obvious purpose
