JimF-LowBari Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Back from the TP and visit (social distancing) in the field in front of the house. Irony is of brand TP is named Kirkland and made in Seattle. Kirkland is the town that had the nursing home that had coronavirus cases when this first started to hit the fan.

I think they need to talk to their people responsible for their headline font size. It's very tabloid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimF-LowBari Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Anyone else think it’s encouraging that some governors are getting together for joint plans on recovering from this? I do but then again think my guv does well working with others. Even got a mention from USAToday that during the daily briefings he says the governments part and then steps back to let the state secretary of health talk about the medical end. Guy is so #### low key I’m surprised anyone noticed him lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E. Brigand Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 On 4/5/2020 at 6:53 PM, N.E. Brigand said: Me too. Our business isn't essential, so most of our staff (the one who weren't laid off, that is) are working from home, but someone has to check the mail, deposit the checks, run payroll every week, and so forth. I actually wrote and signed the letters for the handful of other employees we deemed necessary to keep the lights on. It's actually been busier than ever for my department, because for a few weeks, there's still a lot of things to take care of from the finance/h.r. end of things. This past week in particular has been busy as we generated and gathered the supporting documents needed to apply for the small business loans that were created by the CARES Act nine days ago. We're expecting to receive the official application link at any time. No one's sure how long it will take to get approval after that, though. And the guidance about what documents are required and what the loan can be used for have been shifting this way and that. Just today the association for certified accountants sent out a statement indicating they believe FICA is covered by the payroll loan option, but the banks don't seem to all agree on that point. That alone could change the size of our loan (if it's approved) by more than $50,000. I hope DCI and/or the various corps have looked into those loans, some of which become forgivable in July to the degree that payroll has been maintained -- and which have a low interest rate even if not forgiven. We just got some good news on this front. Meanwhile, I read yesterday that nearly 80% of the $349 billion for this program had already been allocated, less than two weeks after banks began accepting applications. I hope some corps were able to take advantage of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
