We all have varying opinions about the impact of this, the numbers, etc. We will all never agree with each other. But we can all keep it civil.

Thanks!

It also happens to be flu season. It is probable that people have died from COVID-19 and they presumed that they died from influenza.

So I went by the Costco nearest me this afternoon, and things seemed very normal. Also went to my local grocery store and everything is still in stock, there hasn't been any kind of run on anything so far as I can tell.

And I read an article in today's local news that said that the whole panic buying thing hasn't yet become a phenomenon here in PHX. Not yet anyway. Guess I'm not buying pallets of water just yet.

What is it with you people and Costco. Nobody goes to fucking Target? No membership. And a cool fucking red dog with a bulls-eye.

White people love shopping at Costco and posting pics of their hotel room view with the caption "view for the week".

I've pondered starting an Instagram or Twitter account where I only show the views from my hotel rooms. I think it would be quite popular.

Cat videos are consistently top-10 clips in this country, so pics of your hotel room isn't much of a stretch. According to my niece anyway.

no one likes the handshake greeting anyway. Why can’t we just agree to get rid of it when no one likes it. Why do we have to touch someone in business when meeting them for the first time?

We should all do fist-pound-explosions instead.

"You can tell a lot about a man by how big his explosion is after a fist-bump".

When I was a hiring manager, if the candidate didn't shake hands (other than for an injury/sickness) or if he gave me a limp handshake, he was crossed off the list as soon as he went out the door. Man up and learn to give a good firm handshake, sheesh . . .

I'm not falling for that. You probably just want to carry a club into the business meeting.
