Hi All ! Hope all is well with you and yours!
Hi Everyone! Hope all is well with you and yours during a very difficult time we are all facing. I hope the measures being taken gets rid of this virus, and everything goES back to normal. As you know, this will really hit HARD, people in the service industry. Musicians, Bars, Restaurants, entertainment complexes, etc. Some folks are lucky enough to still be receiving paychecks for now, but for many, we do not have that that luxury. Self employed do not get paid for sick days, or receive any government assistance. If we don't have a gig, we don't get paid. But, we will be ok, just have to do without some things, and spend what money you do have wisely for now. Help others you know who are not as fortunate. When this is over, and we pray it's SOON, be generous if you are still working and receiving a paycheck. Tip well, give to any charitable places you can, and most of all, when businesses are reopened, support your local establishments by going to dinner, supporting live music, theater, and tipping well to all service industry folks! For my musician friends, buy their cds, tshirts, etc. and think about perhaps booking them for any upcoming events, both private and public so they can survive this! BELIEVE ME, IT IS APPRECIATED!! MOST IMPORTANT, DO NOT PANIC, DO NOT GO OUT AND HOARD THINGS, AND BE KIND TO ONE ANOTHER. EVERY ONE IS STRESSED DEALING WITH THE UNKNOWN, UNCERTAINTY OF THEIR FINANCIAL FUTURE, ETC. BUT LET'S NOT LET OUR ANXIETY GET THE BEST OF US. BE KIND AND BE THERE FOR OTHERS, HELP EACH OTHER HOWEVER YOU ARE ABLE. WE WILL GET THRU THIS, AND PICK UP THE PIECES. GOD BLESS YOU ALL STAY WARM AND WELL!!
