Your employees are aware of you though, and what if they blame you, and not the Virus? What do they tell their families? Because of the volatility and lack of understanding concerning what is going on, things could go one way, or they could go the other. You're in a tight spot now. [/quote] It sucks, we were doing fine until the virus hit. The cancellations and holds on work were incredible. We survived the housing bubble - this was way worse. [/quote] I was laid off today in the offshore oilfield and the reason was because of all the cancellations and holds also on offshore construction. [/quote]

So, we are a 2nd Generation construction company. Had to lay off all but 2 people. The cancellations and reschedules the past 3 weeks have been crazy. We made a tough decision...better to live and fight another day.
