Has this corona issue affected your job
 
I work in the entertainment industry and this corona epidemic has started to cause some of my work to cancel. It’s a very unfortunate thing but I’ll be alright. Only thing is I now have a bit more free time than expected so it makes me want to work on the cars. At the same time I shouldn’t be spending to much extra with buying new parts since I still have mods I’m attempting to complete still.

The media craze about this stupid cold is insane. I can't believe how stupid the world is.

A colleague's daughter just got back back from South Korea so she's working from home for the next two weeks. Problem is our manager went to her place to setup her computer and remote connection. So he's been in contact with her and then comes back to the shop. Not quite the quarantine they're making it out to be but sometimes it's hard to tell your boss his idea is stupid.

I work for a company that produces hand sanitizer dispensers.... needless to say, business is booming... working 7 days a week

There's a big mining expo in Vegas this week and many big names pulled out because of the "threat". That's about the impact for me. People still want stuff so I keep making big rocks into little rocks.

Pretty much the same for me. A lot of talks about rescheduling expos for mid summer so it’s not a total loss here

I drank 6 Corona Refrescas yesterday and I felt pretty good. Made it into work today, too.

No, not yet, but im hopeful it rips thru management something awful.

Wont go as far as Mr President in calling it a hoax...but it has been blown WAY out of proportion. I will say, in my area it is business as usual. Only thing that is being hoarded is Purell.
The world will keep spinning.....just give it a big lime.

Well it could be much easier to win an election when the MSM and dems blow it out of proportion and intentionally try to sink the economy. They know exactly what they are doing. I will leave my opinions at that since I don't want to taint our site with politics.

My situation is similar I work for a company that makes the n95 masks so we're working seven days a week also.
