Been nice to get to know my family again. Apparently all they do while I'm at work is sleep, eat, play video games, do tiktok, watch TV, and FaceTime or text everyone.

Sorry, man. We watched it last night too. Tears a'plenty for us too if it makes you feel any better. Not their best imo. No real laughs, few real highs and more of a shift into Disney rinse/repeat story lines. That makes it sound terrible. It wasn't. but I don't think will be anywhere near their best. Misses out on not being seen on a big screen too...looks like it was pretty fantastic in terms of visuals and world building. /Ebert. But sorry again, heck. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mr. furley 12,237 Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 i've come to learn that if you've watched a video on how something is done, it automatically makes you more qualified than the person who made the video.. and it confers upon you the ability to tell other people how to do that thing, even if you've never actually done it before and the person you're talking to has decades of experience making that particular item. it's a hell of a thing to be so smart. such a burden. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wow. 15% gloves? I expected better from established, upper end places. I probably won't get any more takeout, although I'd liek to support my locals. Maybe just buy a gift card that will probably end up worthless. I like Domino's touchless pizza. The thin and crispy is not horrible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Y'all should drop the signature-requiring service. Take out the weakest link. And the manager needs to get people wearing ####### gloves or send them home. With at least govt. dole pay. When I do curbside I tell them the back door is unlocked and they stow it away. Seems safe on that part of the transaction. Now I worry about the kitchen and the front.

So from what I understand, it's based on your payroll for x mths. And if you don't use it all for payroll/utilities/rent/mortgage than you have to pay the amount not used back. If you do use all of it for those things than you don't have to pay it back, and if there is a difference since you laid off workers than you owe that difference back. The SBA thread has some good info it. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can obtain a loan for 2.5x your average monthly payroll, based on last 12 months. Not counting portions of salary over $100k. You add state/local taxes and benefits on top. It is 100% forgiven IF you spend 75% of loan on payroll costs (also permitted to spend proceeds on mortgages, utilities, rent), keep headcount equal to previous quarter average (I think — or something similar) and payroll is not reduced by more that 25%. Variation from the above results in dollar for dollar of loan proceeds being paid back at 1% interest in 2 years or less. You don’t violate headcount rule if furloughed employees brought back before June 30. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
