I Am a Small Business Owner

Would you give your staff their 2 week paid vacation and ask them to stay home now?

These are hard times .
My staff are extremely nervous about being working on people but can't live without pay.
Honestly I'm very concerned about liability as well.
But there is no guarantee that thing get better after 2 weeks 馃槼

The world still turns regardless of the virus . Those who are at risk of serious complications can certainly stay home and work from there if possible . The rest of us come to work . A cough or runny nose at this point is reason to stay home . This mass hysteria is ridiculous . People don鈥檛 have enough food to stay home for 2 weeks , life still goes on . Driving in traffic is still far more dangerous than this virus .

@TexChik We average around 15,000 deaths from the regular flu. We are even close to that yet with this virus. We don't shut anything down for the flu.
