If you can stay open with just the owners working on essential repairs (assuming they are both mechanics here but garage owners usually are) but don’t think you’ll have enough business to keep on the other two employees, then that is EXACTLY what the furlough is for.Stay open, you work, send them home on 80%.0

A lot of that needs to stop though, for the safety of the warehouse staff.justwhat said:
Please listen and spread the word , because at this moment in time .this attitude is causing more damage than good. Most electrical goods can still be bought online. And many other things .All deliveries are still being made. Transport and logistics are all still going on.unforeseen said:Garages can only stay open for essential repairs. So that takes out routine servicing and most of the other stuff
Most manufacturing is still going on.
You can stay in your house and still be supplied with most things you normally buy and use.Nobody needs Bluetooth speakers or jewellery or cushions or a new coffee machine right now, but lives are being risked so they can have them delivered in 24 hours.0
