CORONA VIRUS - PHASE 2 - SICK AND TIRED


What day is it?  I'm confused.  I'm fat.  I'm sick and tired of this Corona Virus!  Seems like the powers that be are gettin' ready to open a few things up.  Do we go or do we stay?  That's the million dollar question.

Today I'm hankerin' to get out in the fresh air and get some relief.  Things have gone downhill since day 1.  I think I need a little break from house arrest to clear my head. 

The government got all the small businesses excited about the Payment Protection Plan that was gonna save our jobs. Seems we're still in the time warp where the good 'ol boy system is still the King.  My bossman jumped in immediately to apply so as to save the jobs of our employees.  He's a good man and did everything right.  Was immediately met with the banks not knowing how the applications were to be handled.  Was this on purpose?  I wonder...since the BIG companies bled all of the money out of the program and the smaller businesses were mostly denied due to no funds left.


 Yep...I've now been laid off.  Now the government has a special unemployment provision for "laid off due to Covid 19".  Supposed to mean that we can be laid off due to CV19 circumstances and collect unemployment until things pass and we can get back to work...at the same job.  Gives the company a break in payroll without having to go under.  






Yay! I won't lose my job and won't lose my house while waiting out this thing.  So....benefit application filled out...time consuming but pretty easy.  There is a box for "laid off due to Coronavirus"....check!  Finish the whole thing and submit.  Paperwork is held up due to Coronavirus not being recognized as a valid reason for applying.  Finding out other employees are getting the same hold up.  WTF?

I guess they'll work this out...just waiting to hear something from somebody.  It's like waiting on the Zombies.




 Anyhoo...not gonna get any more stressed out.  Gonna make the best of what I have.  Gonna get out and about on the golf cart for fresh air and soul restoration.  It's my soul...and I'm gonna do it my way.


Gonna figure out what 3000 calorie dinner I'm cookin' for my crew tonight and hit the road.  The road to Main Street OD.  Gonna pick up the Pugster and head out.  If you see us out and about PLEASE wave.  We need to feel a connection to our people!


You should be able to recognize us...Pug will have a scarf tied around his face and a Mich Ultra in his hand.

If the rain comes before we get out I guess I'll just hang around the house and dance with the kids.  

Turn the music up Miss BayBay!

THANKS FOR DROPPIN' IN!  STAY SAFE AND OBEY THE RULES...WHILE  YOU'RE HERE WON'T YOU LEAVE A COMMENT?
