What's the name of the biz? We'd love to drop our stuff off.

As soon as I'm wearing my dress clothes again for work, we will return. I haven't worn a button down shirt or slacks in 3 weeks now.I know there is a number of self employed members on here. I’m interested in what you do and what effects you've had already from the social distancing. I own a small dry cleaning business with two locations my revenue has dropped to 30% of normal for the last two weeks (it literally happen over night) I went from 13 employees to 2 not including myself. I had a coming to Jesus talk with myself and made some tough decisions in a short period of time. I’m confident I can ride this out till Christmas but I’m not sure after that.
The only silver lining if there is one is we as small businesses are mostly in the same boat they can’t evict us all! I think adversity builds character the last two weeks I’ve had an extra bounce in my step it’s weird but for me there is something exciting about having you back against the wall.
The COVID-19 virus does not mutate very fast. It does so eight to 10 times more slowly than the influenza virus, said Anderson, making its evolution rate similar to other coronaviruses such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS).
It’s also not expected to spontaneously evolve into a form more deadly than it already is to humans. The SARS-CoV-2 is so good at transmitting itself between human hosts, said Andersen, it is under no evolutionary pressure to evolve.
We have had similar experiences with cafe food takeout over the last year. Their problem is the app doesn’t adjust the availability times based on how busy they are. It always starts at 15 minutes out regardless if it has 100 orders already.Did our first attempt at a restaurant dinner last night. Cafe Rio in Magna. What a joke! We ordered and paid on the app. It then says to pull up at our appointed time and they run the food out to us. Our time was 6:20. When we pull up there was probably ten people/groups waiting at the door. I park and go up to the crowd. A worker finally comes out with a bag of food that belongs to no one in the group. People are shouting their names at the worker who then goes back inside, puts that bag on a table next to the door and disappears. Another worker comes out and does the same thing. More people are coming and standing around. There is no order at all. I gave my name to the workers a few times but it didn’t do any good. The crowd is getting larger and no one is happy. One lady kept her face pressed against the window and would occasionally bang her fists on the glass. We all tried to stay spread out, but as more people came they needed to fill in the area to have any hope of talking to a worker. We may as well just been inside sitting down. There’s lots of laughing amongst the crowd as another wrong order was brought out which was good, but I kept thinking this could go from crowd to mob any second. My wife was sitting in the truck which was very close to the crowd. I kept looking at her and could see her face saying “get ready to run”. Our order came out. I grabbed the bag and jumped into the truck without even looking at it. It was just after 7pm. We would eat whatever they gave us. Every other order that had come out before ours was in some way wrong. My wife dove into the bag as we drove away. It was all right. Perhaps because two of the meals in the bag were going to our local set of missionaries. We dropped those off and went home and eat. I need to check the news to see if Cafe Rio burned to the ground last night.
