I'm reading it the same. You're a business owner yes? If so what direction are you giving your guys.
We are working until government says to shut down. We're low risk, but my guys are subcontractors so I'm not sure what options they have. One guy just got back from mexico today so he's isolated for 2 weeks.

We're similar. We'll stop when ordered to or if our suppliers or clients stop working with us. Found out today that one of our guys is showing symptoms so he went today for testing. Another guys wife's cowrokers is also getting tested so we'll wait and see.

It's going to be interesting to see how this "hand out" is going to play out. Other half was on $175,000 till last week, while I wasn't earning. That puts us over the threshold as a household apparently by $25,000.

I wonder if it'll work out with cost of living etc?

I wish they'd rip the bandaid off if they're on the fence about shutting down non essential business. I'm fine for the most part, as it's just myself and 1 employee, but I'm on the tail end of a project and found myself concerned about the amount of other trades coming in and out.
Today we had concrete crew pouring basement slab, propane guy for heaters, cabinet markout guy, IPD crew (insulation, poly, drywall), safety rail crew, plumbing/heating markout guy and imagine basement crew tomorrow to build frost walls.
Hope things work out for you, and you didn't pick up the virus.

U.S. with more than 4,000 new confirmed cases & 50 deaths today.
Now comes that exponential growth we've talked about that opens folks eyes a bit.
