    I keep seeing headlines and titles, like "affected" as if this is behind us.

    Stop complaining about your condition and realize that it's the perfect timing to get the union in and ask for the living wage that you deserve. Imagine the major freak out if you threaten to go on strike, they will agree to give you a decent salary AND health insurance. You are essential workers!

      Right, make for sure you kill your employment by killing the business.

    The important "invisible people" that provide these essential services: truckers, cashiers, and hospital clerks. Forget about the "influencers", youtubers, and billionaire reality stars who produce NOTHING.

    I thought America had a ton of food since I always see the shelves completely full with food in the store. I was wrong.

    Such little room to back a semi. I'm sure trucks and trailers get bumped a lot. and it's not cuz truck drivers are scared, it's because New York City's not made for today's truck sizes.

    • @CRAPO2011

      True, I respect those drivers backing a 53" trailer in NYC many have to hop the sidewalk just to make a turn
