Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
I haven't had a bottle of ketchup since the condiment wars of '07.
Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
I usually keep a big bottle in the house because it’s the base of my homemade sloppy joe sauce but that’s all it gets used for.

Is Trump still trying to give the stock market a goose with theatrics, because, holy fuck, stop that you big Cheeto, if you are.
Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
Multiple times the chow hall here has run out of ketchup. Same with hot sauce and honey. The food is so trash that you need to cover taste with something better.
Recently they've added Carolina Gold BBQ sauce and that shit is the truth. It's really good.

It's a condiiment, it's a vegetable, it's facepaint ... it's a miracle in a bottle.

A good friend is an RN who just got sent home because one of her co-workers in her office tested positive. That co-worker is also a school nurse.

Yeah... I know the district, but not the school. Not a concern to anyone here, I think.

Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
Since Trump won't allow medicare to cover it, hospitals are royally fucked. With the bill making tests free, I don't know if the government is reimbursing hospitals, if they eat the costs or what.

Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
So as I said previously my kids' school may have a case, so my wife is a little worried and is proactively working from home. Her company has been giving her shit about it even though 99.99999% of work involves conference calls and working on shared documents that can be done from anywhere with WiFi.
Makes no fucking sense.

Did you see that ludicrous display last night?
Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
The fucking key word is “working”. If educational institutions weren’t so worried about litigation, I wonder where my wife and I would be in this crossfire hurricane.Rush2112 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 18, 2020 4:21 pm So as I said previously my kids' school may have a case, so my wife is a little worried and is proactively working from home.

Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
So, the local grocery store sent an email announcing that they will be observing special hours for customers 60 years and older... from 6-7:30am on Tuesdays and Thursdays. How many people under the age of 60 will this change affect?
Of all the businesses inundating me with how they are handling coronavirus, my barbershop's email was so far and away the best, no one else may even qualify for fourth place.

Ohio shut down all hair salons, barber shops, tattoo parlors, spas and other places like that today. Sucks for my buddy, who has a very popular barbershop in Parma.DSafetyGuy wrote: ↑Wed Mar 18, 2020 5:26 pm So, the local grocery store sent an email announcing that they will be observing special hours for customers 60 years and older... from 6-7:30am on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

I'm glad I got a haircut last week. It's gonna get out of control, but not nearly as bad as it would have.

I have to go to the bank tomorrow to make a deposit of all the extra cash I picked up for work so I can send off a check for the balance.
There will be multiple employees who think I am crazy.

Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
I’ve been thinking about that for a few days now. Every major city has an arena, and some have domed stadiums. Since they aren’t going to be used in the near future they would seem like an ideal place to set up a temporary hospital.

I’ve tried. Not good.
Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
Someone explain to me like a big dumb child why a bailout, if one is done, can’t be contingent on a future payback or at minimum escrow account equal to the buyout before any stock buybacks or salaries in excess of $__ are paid?

Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
Cause you don't understand the word "bailout"?
Obviously, that's exactly how it should work - short term influx with the intent of payback. But that would make the industries sad, D!)
It's back to the whole "this is how we've always done it." I still think not letting 1-2 of the really big banks fail back in the day was one of the worst decision ever made.

Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
I don’t even mind making the loans interest-free at least for a couple or three years but it shouldn’t be free money for these industries that were raking in cash and using it to buy back their own stock to goose the price.

Re: Not so funny real life Capt Trips thread
Diaz-Balart said he felt symptoms while voting on the floor in Congress (on the Corona Bill, no less), and McAdams tested positive after returning to Utah, which means he obviously flew, so how many people did he infect on the flight or in the airport?
