Anybody else here get laid off because of the corona virus?

I work at a grocery distribution center. I fucking wish I could be quarantined at home being comfy with my dogs and vidya, but I'm considered an essential employee. We even got papers the other day to show to police/National Guard if they start setting up road blocks

because your company gets money from (((colleges))) instead of something important or useful

lol that ID

just FUGG MY shit up, man

Based

Stop projecting your own worthlessness unto others, user. You could really use this time to become a better person. I suggest you do.

I get that it’s dangerous, but for people that just lost their jobs- I don’t know how I’m going to pay rent. And unemployment in my state just shot up to over 100K in the last three days

>how I’m going to pay rent.
Don't pay it.

The government just forced you out of a job and closed down the entire economy. It's their job to pay for it.

We sell promotional items for fraternities and sororities. If there’s no school, there’s no kappa pi omega dance to promote. It’s not leeching off of anyone. It’s just a small part of how this virus is fucking over the economy and individuals at the same time

I’m a consultant for vocational education providers here in Australia. Both my clients exclusively enrol overseas students from India who simply arrive here to obtain a migration outcome. Since the social distancing measures have killed the hospitality industry in which the majority of them work in, they don’t have money to pay their tuition fees, in fact one of my clients only managed to receive direct debit payments from half their students and the other half had insufficient funds in their account. The client sent their students on leave early for two weeks and most of them won’t come back as their only reason to be in Australia is to work and obtain a migration outcome. My other client is starting to face the same problem as well, so as of next week I have to rely on one client and the entire population ponzi scheme that is the overseas student visa program is finished and so is the Australian economy which it underpins.

Well OP, you might not be in good company but you're in A LOT of company.

>9% of working Americans (14 million) so far have been laid off as result of Coronavirus; 1 in 4 workers have had their hours reduced.

It took over a year after the 1929 crash for unemployment to raise this much.

Sweet, lemme just call Nancy Pelosi and have her cut me a check

Jesus Christ.

>I clean up dog shit for a living

At least we cant completely shut down and are virutally lockdown proof.

I did the smart thing and married a cop. We'll be the last ones fucked. But if our paychecks start to bounce, then be VERY worried...

Explain how you can sell promotional items to fraternities and not to any different groups.

I’m legit considering calling the city and finding out if they’re hiring for garbage collection.

so you worked actively promoting the invasion of your country.
good riddance.

It’s their main base of clients. In good times it makes sense because there’s always going to be frats and sororities, and they’ll always have events. Kids get good products at fair prices, they tell people on campus, the next generation replaces them. The company basically made it their niche, and it completely collapsed right in the middle of our busy season. They could make and sell stuff to anybody, but that would involve getting an entirely new client base and business model over night- hense, why I no longer have a job

nothing wrong with that, well except that viruses might live on surfaces for a few days

if you sell promo items to anyone you are a worthless fuckface

In that case I'm sorry, user. I thought there was some subsidized bs going on. I hope you find a new job soon.

She might, but realize that evictions are halted and half your town can't pay rent either. Even people who CAN pay the rent should hold off until government cuts us checks. The money is fake anyway.

Sell corona masks with frat/sorority names on them. A whole line of date rapist prophylactics and party supplies. Branded GHB, shitty beer, condoms, masks, gloves, etc. What are you going to college for? Your noodle is cooked, breh.

Yikes.

Trump better get serious about UBI or he's toast.

You'll be a hostage victim when the boogaloo kicks off and we raid the facility.

I mean that’s nice, and thank you, but my point is that my story is super specific, and it’s a segment of the economy you probably never think about unless you’re directly involved in it. There’s 100’s of thousands of people that are getting laid off right now just in my state alone. Point is- we are so fucked

I was saying at work today, it’s all going to be fun and games until enough people are out of work for too long and it starts to dawn on people they actually don’t need money to get the things they need, you understand?

The worst case scenario is the animals would just live at the shelter and not get adopted until this is all over, but people would riot if we were forced to just stay home and let the pupperinos and kitterinos die.

Woah, this. . . Is pretty based

I used to work for the regulator and shut down quite a few of these colleges and that’s why my services were in high demand from the very same people I pursued, I tried to fight the Globalists, I was winning and then the Department I worked for kicked me out because I was too effective, a man has to eat user.

I know how you feel man. I was a full time Lyft driver in Las Vegas. The city that has just seen tens of thousands of jobs disappear overnight. I dont have money for rent now either. I'm almost hoping if I dont find another job in the next week that things get worse so I have bigger things to worry about then my bills.

the elite class knows it better than we do. they are terrified of that and will pay the bribe.

Ohhhh, you work at a shelter. The way you phrased it, I thought you worked for the city cleaning up dog shit at the park or something. Yeah, that’s an important job, but can’t dogs and cats still carry it?

Hey I got one of those papers too but I am from west coast. It scares me how easily we gave up our freedom.

Will the damn barber shop be open? What if a cleancut appearance is needed for your job?

People keep talking about how this effecting the airline industry, but if you live in a major tourist city and your livelihood is dependent on people showing up that also effects you pretty directly.

That is when the national guard roving patrols come to make sure that doesn't happen.

My company is in online event registration. Needless to say we are fucking going bankrupt over this. The boss won't admit but the cracked voice tells all. I helped build this company from a tiny 5 man operation to over 50 in 8 years. Now it's probably all going away. Fuck this stupid bullshit.

There was a guy on twitter yelling at the governor earlier about how he owns his own barbershop in a suburb and business has completely dried up. I’m not even sure he’s legally allowed to be open right now, but the ripple effects are huge. He’s not making money, he can’t pay his employees, and you bring up the good point of the fact people still need haircuts. I’m not sure what the answer is.

So restaurantd don't matter? Yes people can cook at home, but it's still a valuable service to eat at a restaurant, though impossible when government bans it.

Create art while you can.

How poetic. I need a fucking job!

Restaurants don't matter, no.

Farms and markets do

>Restaurants don't matter, no
You realize you’re talking about an industry that supports the livelihoods of 10’s of millions of people, yes? If all those people suddenly became homeless the majority of them would die. And I can guarantee you they wouldn’t be the only ones, if you catch my drift. Desperate people do some pretty fucked up shit

There aren't enough National Guard to do shit - and they're locals and won't shoot their family and neighbors over a gay virus.

Restaurants that serve locals food are hanging on with deliveries - it's the trendy fine dining scene that is getting BTFO the hardest. No loss there and hopefully the rest can scrape by and reopen.

Based check?

> (OP)
>Create art while you can.
Like couterfeit bills?

>Millions of drug addicted niggers and spics working in kitchens are suddenly out of work and desperate.
>This doesn't matter
kek

>Restaurants that serve locals food are hanging on with deliveries
Not for long. If nobody’s working, who’s paying for delivery? Also, you’re completely writing off people that work as waiters, or dishwashers, or any of the other millions of people whose job depends on the restaurant industry existing.

Way to fuck up the larp

They're on UI and I expect them to get bailed out - government fucking better!

The trendy restaurants getting rekt is not a problem. That is core clown world - eating should not be fetishized.

#LEARNTOCODE

I work as a head brewer and the governor shut all the bars down, laid off immediately. Thanks Gavin you stupid fucking prick how about you give me your money fucking stupid nigger lover. Fuck it at least the wife makes good money.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but you mean to say that Australia will be a post-economic wasteland in the near future, and all the poos and chinks that helped cause it are now fleeing because the artificially created jobs they use as a back door to citizenship are gone, right?

Nah, they still need to be fed everyday, and even if they had automated feeders in each kennel, after a few Days of pissing and shitting all over the place they’d all get super sick and die.

Current Senate bill is a one-time tax credit. $600 minimum, $1200 maximum per person (+$500 for each dependent).

Must have filed taxes for 2018 (if you didn't they'll use 2019 instead.

Must have disclosed an income of at least $2500 to qualify for the $600 minimum otherwise you get nothing (NEETs btfo). How much you get is determined by your net tax liability up to a max of $1200.

Subject to change of course.

congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/senate-bill/3548

It’s not happening. Or at least not fast enough. Again, you’re both talking about trendy restaurants closing and laying off employees like those aren’t millions of people and it has no effect on the economy. Oh, and the other thing that when millions of people are unemployed for too long, everything becomes free.

But unironically. It's comfy, fun, and useful.

тecт

>#LEARNTOCODE
funny you should mention that. Lay offs are basically hitting everybody
>

>completely leaving off the $99k cap above which you get $0

Yes.
Unironically.

True. I just assumed 99% of people on Yas Forums don't make over $99k, or even of $75k where it starts ramping down.

>one time
Lmao that’s a band aid on a bullet wound

techies are happy when they get laid off.

That is not the real industry. I even checked out that thread. It's all small-timers at no-name companies like the fag in the pic. Also it's international - I'm speaking mutt-to-mutt here.

Unless real SHTF happens, tech is safe. Literally everyone is beholden to the internet now.

I completely forgot that I am not on Yas Forums, nevermind me

>work in steel
>boss already sent out a letter to everyone saying you’re working no vacation for you
kek

It’s a nonsense proposal that does nothing to help the poorest AKA the ones most likely to spread the virus
