All the sports are out. With them, income for jobs like food, merchandising, security, tech support, transportation, hotels, etc. What a mess.

Concerts and any sort of event are out along the entire west coast at this point too. People are already losing their jobs out here.

Job fairs are getting canceled, at least round my parts, which means people are losing jobs and now struggling to get them. Like I was telling kleinbl00 the other day, between this virus and the potentially looming recession, this hiring season might not happen at all.

Wow. That suuucks. Stage hands might be gig work, but that's consistent, reliable gig work.

Yep...small scale stuff is ongoing but events > 250 people are banned. It's...interesting and changing by the day.
