Yeah, I can't see how a lot of business owners are going to make it through this, assuming that they're still having to pay rent / utilities / insurance, and also trying to keep their employees supplied with some kind of cash stream.
Talked to a friend in Tulsa, well known steakhouse that is doing curbside pickup only..........sales are down 93%.
this is a very successful local chain in this area:
To Our Guests and Friends,
In the last week Great American Restaurants has had to face unimaginable challenges with more uncertain times ahead during this national health crisis. And in these times of uncertainty, many of our guests, friends and neighbors have asked what they can do to help financially support the 1,700 GARStars we had to make the difficult decision to lay off due to the pandemic that has drastically impacted our industry. We are beyond appreciative and blown away by this outpouring of love and support.
Therefore, we have set up the Great American Restaurants Employee Relief Fund to help support these 1,700 wonderful people. The Norton Family will match every contribution two for one. That means that if you donate $100, the Norton Family will add $200 to the Relief Fund. Your support means more to us than you will ever know. Every contribution counts - no matter how small - it will make a profound impact on the livelihoods of these outstanding people.
We will get through this together and look forward to seeing you back in our restaurants soon.
With gratitude and appreciation,
Great American Restaurants and The Norton Family
from a new California chain that opened up a location here just two weeks ago:
Dear Family + Friends,
We know how challenging it is to get groceries right now and we are here to help. Starting today, our Lazy Dog Pantry is offering home essentials for curbside pick-up at all restaurant locations.
We've put together a collection of those hard-to-get items and will make them available for you to pick up.
Home Essential Package - $40 - includes:
• 3 lbs of boneless skinless chicken breast
• 15 eggs
• 1 gallon of whole milk
• 1 loaf of bread
• 1 lb of unsalted butter
• 2 lb of rice (uncooked)
• 2 lb of yellow onions
• 2 lb of red potatoes
• 2 lb carrots
• 3 rolls of toilet paper
To place your curbside pick-up order, please call your local Lazy Dog.
Same deal at most radio & TV stations. We're down to a very barebones staff, maybe 40 cars in the parking lot this morning vs. 250.
The IT crew have been moving mountains to get people who think VPN is a medical condition set up with it at home.
Project timelines, meanwhile, have gone completely out the window. We'd been scheduled to commission the new 5PB storage array this week. That ain't happenin' now.

With our defense and medical contracts we are staying open as long as we can. Even if it just run a skeleton crew. Thankfully I'll still be here no matter what.
We actually anodize and hardcoat parts that go in ventilators.
