Job openings...
I was discussing with a business owner what will happen to his employees if/when he scales back his work force to due to a lack of work. His comment was they will most likely take on jobs making deliveries.Most restaurants and grocery stores already have delivery service available. In the interest of safety, people would prefer having their orders delivered and not having to be subjected to crowds with long lines to get their food and supply now that they are on lockdown in many public places.
Shop by phone app, make a payment and schedule a delivery. When the truck arrives, your order is boxed and placed on your doorstep where you are alerted by text it's waiting for you.
I cancelled a routine doctor appointment this coming Sunday and the clinic said they are starting to call clients to cancel as the government mandated they go on lockdown. 20 doctors work out of that clinic and the waiting room is packed at peak times. They are implementing video doctor calls and hope to have that system up and running next week. The facility will remain open for emergencies and prescriptions will be available via phone consultation. That means the pharmacies that don't already make deliveries will begin making deliveries... job openings on the horizon.
