    That’s the thing everyone who had to stay at work in public took a considerable risk, liki the employees at the grocery store. They deserve a lot of praise, and no one cares.

        Imagine having to go to work every day knowing you’re risking your life and making at best just above minimum wage.

          I asked someone in the industry once that exact same thing, and the answer I got back was basically you don’t do this job for the money, you do it for the people.

          Now granted, being able to pay your mortgage would take some stress off you, especially when you get so much stress at work, but still, a lot of people do it for non-income reasons.

          And for the record, them (and teachers, while we are at it) should be paid a lot more than they do get paid.

        Just the extra money on top of the standard unemployment was significantly more income than they made by saying at work too.
