You realize these places are automatically half capacity, right? Eventually you're going to try to go someplace you like and experience this. I will have empathy for you.

Nah, I'm good.

I usually get my food to take home. The one time during this C-19 shit I go to sit down, I was seated immediately (and we had a party of 7), and then the place was shut down the next day due to C-19.

I'll continue with the takeout.

This is our jam. Also, the our neighborhood is just big enough that we get food trucks visiting a block from our house about 3-4 times a week, which provides a nice variety.

I still say that claims will decrease when the $600 ends. And again at the end of the year with the extended benefits run out. I know people who are purposefully avoiding work because of the $600.

And Telsa, holy fuck. We hung out of with some friends who are employees this weekend and I didn't' realize they had all become rich in the last 3 months with their stock options. Many employees were taking 50% compensation that way. Even low level employees made their own salary in a few months. Our friend really wants to quit and trave the world when allowed now.

I should apply there.

Rs roll out their latest stimulus package.

The important thing is that movement to help people is finally occurring and that $600 extra, the Rs are trying to drop to $200 extra. Of course, that's what CNN lead with to make it sound like Rs were attacking unemployment, but I digress... :D
