    I dunno... we just dont. Not all employers offer it. In light of everything I was just happy to have a paycheck. Tho the drive thru banking thing is depressing. Im a people person and much prefer to go into the lobby where I can make small talk with the tellers. My fear is that coronavirus is going to turn us into a society that doesnt interact face to face at all anymore :(

    Yeah I was kinda thinking that but with phones at least you still had the choice. Coronavirus is gonna change the way we do business for good. Like the no contact food deliveries... they're talking about how that will be the new norm even after the pandemic ends

    Meh. Highly doubt that. Maybe for some time. But at some point the spreading will likely stagnate and the majority of people already been infected once.
    The main reason for social distancing etc. now is so the hospitals and healthcare system can deal as good as possible with all the infected at the same time. As been pointed out it's not actually deadly enough to go in a lockdown for too long. Then other stuff we now always considered as mild or bearable should also put us into lockdown. It's because covid19 is new and there isn't a handy cure or prevention yet.

    Because they steal eachothers thoughts.... :eek:
     
  17. 200,000 are expected to die in the US. That is serious. Unless we don't value human life. Which...few and far between are the people who do.

    We'll get over it. Return to our old, stagnant ways. Which are only pleasant to the most vainglorious among us. But, therefore, certain death is to come.

    This is serious, but we won't learn. We'll say it was no big deal, because we have no deep consideration for those who died.

    But this is just the beginning.

    Even if you have deep consideration for those who died it doesn't mean we shouldn't return to normal at some point. I bet there's no good reason to keep social distancing safety measures up in the long term.
     
  19. Of course not. And people won't. Life will return to "normal," which is by-and-large a repugnant thing.

    We will just continue on our merry way, as though nothing can touch us. But we're in for a few surprises.
