....barber shops and salons all shut down in Ohio....and due to this damn virus panic, I've been laid off from the radio station....no commercials to produce, when businesses aren't open or have no money to spend, because everyone's hiding....this one hurts, been doing it 41 years-just hope they'll have me back when things finally improve....if not, it's been one hell of a run.....

Sorry to hear this (((GNTLGNT )))
I know you love this radio job and i keep my fingers crossed that you get it back.

Sigh.....I'm not reading or posting much more for the rest of the day.
Too much angering and (worse) saddening posts.
Just too morose.
Have great hope and be fearless, and a great weekend.
Just gunslinger up people.

Safety tip:

Putting juice from jalapeno peppers on your hands will train you to stop touching your face :)
I saw a tip where putting tea tree oil on your hands will also make you stop touching your face. As you bring the hand up, you smell the tea tree and remember.

You don't realize how much you touch your face until you're told to not touch your face.

Another thing that will do it is sticking your hand in a toilet when you have bowl cleaner in it. Once, I was cleaning my toilet and dropped my phone in the toilet. I had to reach into the toilet to get the phone and my hand smelled like bowl cleaner for 3 days. I couldn't wash that smell off. :)

North Carolina's governor made an executive order yesterday closing all hair salons for a minimum of 30 days. The order takes effect at 5:00 p.m. tomorrow (Wednesday). While I understand the need to be cautious, I'm not sure what I'm going to do for money. As a self employed person, I do not qualify for unemployment. Trying to look for the bright spot, but it's becoming difficult not to become depressed.

Sorry to hear that. You know what would REALLY stop the spread of Corona in the US, grounding all the inner US flights, but it ain't going to happen.
