rufous, sorry to hear of your ordeal. But, you sound like the kind of guy who bounces back quickly.
Rooster7, congrats on finding a good spot. Thanks LD!

Bugger! I was let go today. The winery I was making the wine for here in Michigan has lost a lot of money due to our freaking Governor shutting down the state and so the CEO has decided to eliminate my salary from the payroll. I know of no wineries in my area that are looking for a winemaker so it looks like I will need to try to sell the house. Then what, who knows. Prayers appreciated. Sorry to hear that. I have a couple good friends in the same boat. One is an architect. Any chance the winerys up north need your expertise? Leelanau or Old Mission areas, or over by Paw Paw? There's also free grant money to cover payroll expenses with the PPP that was passed last week. Surprised your CEO doesn't apply. Every company owner I know of got in on the first one. Some to the tune of millions. Good luck.

Am sorry to hear of your predicament, rufous! You hang tough, and will keep you and your loved ones in my prayers. You are certainly not alone in this mess!

When the final tally is in, (if it's ever published, highly unlikely) the number of businesses that have shut down for good & the job loss will be staggering.
But of course, that will all be swept under the rug & hidden from view, by both the media & .gov.
And, so much of the populace is already on the .gov tit, that most just don't give it much of a thought as long s they're not too inconvenienced by the businesses being lost.
Michigan is a sad state, maybe only behind NY & CA.

My son lives in the Sault and manages a building supply. He has never enforced the mask or shut down. He told me the people in the UP are so fed up with the governor. They would be happy if someone blew up the bridge. Whitmer is hated by most people outside of Detroit, Lansing and Ann Arbor.

Did you work at Tabor Hill or Round Barn?
