Are they running a good operation there? Limited number of people in store, and plenty of sanitizing, etc? I've been happy with what I've seen from Superstore here. Taking things seriously.

I noticed earlier this past week London Drugs was saying they were gonna keep their last store hour available to health care employees. People were wondering how well the shelves would be stocked at that point. Others replied they had noticed some of the London Drugs were doing their restocking late-afternoon and early-evening, which would be helpful.
They have a row of at least 40 registers and made a line at the end of them with squares on the floor to space people.... the cashiers have sneeze guards like at Walmart.... I was there early and the line to get in had started but the store had just opened so they let every one in..... it's a biiig store... they have two entrance exit doors... now one is enter only... I'm sure that's the side where the line will be if they need it... I always go at around opening time.... less people will have been in the store.... no need to go after hundreds have been in there.

For god sakes. How did we get here again?

White folks lost their minds because they had to live 8 years under the leadership of an intelligent, compassionate, competent black man and voted for the polar opposite because they figured if a black man could do it, the most mediocre white man with a big mouth could and went with the biggest shit talker.

Well played. I hear you re: off-peak hours. Always try to get the shopping in without the stress or major line-ups. It's strange how the store compared to a few weeks ago when all the panic buying was happening. Massive line-ups and confusion with people accessing from various angles or other aisles. No spacing. Compared to about 15 registers and someone letting you know which one to go to from a distance. "Line 8 is open" ... type of thing. Really big plexiglass shields / guards for the clerks. That weird eery feeling with a quiet store (but relatively busy). People buying appropriate amounts of stuff.

Appropriate amounts of stuff? This is the second time I've been in there and there's bean a run on cereal(shitload of Cheerios, even in a pandemic no one wants that shit), rice, beans pasta.... and onions of all things.... I gotta take one of my dogs to the vet for a follow up visit at 9am... gonna hit the Stop & Shop near it to see if they got any Vidalia onions and a couple of things that ShopRite didn't have.... Vidalia's are sweeter and good for stews and spaghetti sauce

Yes - vidalias are good.

A few weeks back full aisles were nearly cleared out. It was clear they hadn't bothered re-stocking stuff (or didn't have the supplies) 'cuz they were empty during the 1st hour of the store. This time around there would just be lower amounts of certain items. They were careful about the loose items too. Stuff like loose bulk items in the bakery (bagels, buns, etc). They had big signs explaining those items were not stocked, and to buy the pre-bagged 6 or 12-count ones instead. A good safety measure.

Oh yeah - the meat section. A few weeks back it was 95% cleared out. This time around it was still about 80% full.
 
This is for real!!!

@TooTrilla ... you're the stupid pussy ass retard fuck boi now.... you goofy ass faggot.... bet you finally put the video game down and woke da fuck up... :hmm:

US auto sales expected to slump as much as 80% compared to last year



Detroit Auto Show canceled in preparation for FEMA to turn venue into field hospital

The North American International Auto Show, which was scheduled for June in Detroit, has been canceled as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread and the city prepares to repurpose the TCF Center into a temporary field hospital. The federal government says construction at TCF Center, formerly known as Cobo Center, will begin after contracts are wrapped up in 24 to 36 hours.

NAIAS is held each year in the TCF Center, formerly known as the Cobo Center. Organizers said they expected the Federal Emergency Management Agency to designate the TCF Center as a field hospital.

“Although we are disappointed, there is nothing more important to us than the health, safety and well-being of the citizens of Detroit and Michigan, and we will do what we can to support our community’s fight against the coronavirus outbreak,” NAIAS Executive Director Rod Alberts said in an emailed statement.

The NAIAS is the latest in a long line of events and conventions that have been canceled as COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, has spread from China to Europe, and now the U.S. and the rest of the world.

More than 100 convention centers and facilities around the country are being considered to potentially serve as temporary hospitals. Alberts said it became clear that TCF Center would be an inevitable option to serve as a care facility.

The NAIAS, also known as the Detroit Auto Show, will be held in June 2021. Organizers are discussing plans for a fundraising activity later this year to benefit the children’s charities that were designated as beneficiaries of the 2020 Charity Preview event.
This year’s show was highly anticipated because it had moved from January to summer, following years of encouragement to schedule it during the warmer months.

All tickets purchased for the 2020 NAIAS show, including tickets for the Public Show, Industry Preview and Charity Preview will be fully refunded, organizers said. Charity Preview ticket holders will be given the option of a refund, or the opportunity to donate the proceeds of their refund to one of the nine designated Charity Preview beneficiaries. The NAIAS ticket office will be in contact with all ticket holders, according to the organizers.

Good point about mortgage companies. Noticed a number of people on the Reddit regional (and finance) subreddits were discussing refinancing their rates, etc.

So anecdotal third party info: My sis lives in Geneva and has a friend that works for a phone company that services China. I'm not sure where the friend lives. Anyway, over the past month, 20 million Chinese mobile phone accounts have been closed. She can't say for sure what the reasons are, but she believes it is because the majority of them are due to passing and that the death toll is higher than what China is telling everyone.

The "Rona Reaper" bags it's first inmate.... in Louisiana

Chesapeake crab industry remains crippled by visa shortage, coronavirus
Responding to employers’ calls, including those of crab meat processing companies in Virginia and Maryland, the federal government announced March 5 that it would release an additional 35,000 temporary visas for foreign workers.

That still may not be enough to quench the Chesapeake Bay seafood houses’ demand for temporary workers, according to the trade group that represents the industry. And they may still arrive too late to help much or perhaps get stuck on the other side of the border, as the United States today closed its Mexican border for unessential travel because of coronavirus concerns.

Several seafood company owners and watermen had implored the Trump administration to issue 64,000 more visas, the cap set by Congress.

Jack Brooks, co-owner of J.M. Clayton Seafood Co. in Cambridge, and president of the Chesapeake Bay Seafood Industries Association, said he expects a worker shortfall, despite the government’s action.

Initially, the Department of Homeland Security doled out 33,000 work visas, which are in effect for six months beginning April 1. With the added 35,000 visas, the total still falls well short of the 100,000 slots that U.S. employers nationally had sought to fill.
