i feel so lucky. my full time job is in a public school. we are staying home for the next 3 weeks minimum, but still getting paid. still waiting to hear a plan from admin. i'm an OT so i treat kids directly, can't really do much from home besides family education, home recommendations, and consultation.
april vaca plans are cancelled (big sur marathon in cali). but it's small potatoes.

Hopefully the panic buying stops soon because it's not good for all of us in the long run. There's only so much supply. The demand is higher than the supply right now and it needs to be the other way around. Slow down people, and stop over buying. Let the supply build back up so the supply is bigger than the demand.
