[The Producer]

with respect to some of the posters in this thread:

you have little concept of what this event is doing to the livelihoods of some of your fellow british columbians.

my small business provides a service. is it an essential one? not really. but I could not have foreseen that the type of work I do (and have done for 20 years) would essentially END the day that people stopped being able to legally gather. Nobody would have. "Why didn't you prepare for a downturn"? This isn't a downturn. This is the faucet being turned off.

This limo guy is clearly a scumbag. But he probably has a fleet of drivers, a shit ton of lease payments and maintenance, and a family to support.

How about a little consideration for the people that don't get to just "work from home" and collect their salary?

I can promise you that if ALL british columbians took a 75% pay hit since "we're all in the same boat" that we might have a little more empathy for the people around us.
