My world: Everyone at the software companies are working remotely. The chocolate factory shut down yesterday due to not be considered an essential business. The chocolate elve had already left due to health concerns. I handle all the commercial rentals myself so no impact:
I don't intend to lay-off anybody...if this stretches into June or July...then we may look at cutting salaries by 25 to 50%. With the $1,200 everyone is getting already from the gov, and the 4 month unemployment (+$600/week additional), if we have to do layoffs, then the Team will not be totally without funds.

How in the hell did they even get approved for this? And another question is what in the **** is going on with Congress and additional funding? Yesterday morning they were talking about being very close to a deal and there hasn't been an update since.
I with you my friend! It’s infuriating to another level. I heard that the big companies are getting away with this because like in Shake Shacks case each of their stores have around 49 employees. Doesn’t matter that the have 189 stores. I heard this from a small business expert. Not sure how true but it would make since. Total BS if true !!! [Reply]
Additional funds are going to be approved soon. I already reached out to a local bank and will have my application in tomorrow, so that it can be immediately submitted this time. Im not missing out this time around. [Reply]

I think those are in ford county (dodge city). If they shut that down it won’t be good. [Reply]

Prob end of the week before signed into law....$310B for PPP, $60B for EIDLs....didn't close the "Shake Shak" loopholes....uncertain if you need to reapply if you missed PPP the first time around (I suspect no)....
Not going to be enough overall for small business....first tranche of PPP was $349B, and they wrote 1.6M loans, average of about $240K per.....
At that rate they'll write another 1.2M loans.....so about 3m loans total out of 30M small businesses (not to mention some of those loans weren't really to small business)

Crazy times we live in!
Couple quick questions
Since im an IC, do I just put my name under the Business Legal Name portion?
Under the Applicant Ownership portion where it wants you to list all people that own at least 20% of the equity of applicant, do I need to put my information in those boxes since its just me and I've already put my info in?
Im putting in another app with a small local bank because I was an idiot and applied with paypal and I know they will take their sweet ass time and I'll miss out. [Reply]

everyone that needs it should get their applications to their banker right now...
Just from anecdotal evidence, I'd say get with a small bank. Seems like larger banks had more issues the first time around than the small banks. [Reply]

I think it depends on how your business is structured. Definitely get in there and talk to a bank. Like today. [Reply]
