Grocery Shortages

[greynotsoold]

Random thought. We should have an adopt-a-trucker program. They're pretty self isolated as it is with drives across the Country but there are many Highway rest stops and weigh stations closing down or unstaffed. Basically they find a cheap motel or pull into parking lots to sleep and have to be running 2,3 times the work load now. Cannot picture neighborhoods being open to the trailers driving through the small streets but it's not like there is a ton of traffic right now.

Those guys are working hard. The truck stops around here are pretty full, and open.

Truckers are working hard and were complaining that there are limited toilet facilities and places to eat. They keep the country going and are essential so need these provisions.

Yes, they are an underappreciated, yet essential, part of the balance of nature.

Just think how many prostitutes there would be if there weren't enough truckers to murder them, thereby keeping their population down.

We would be overrun with 'ladies of the night', to the extent that they would become dangerous pests. There would be scores of them buzzing around street lamps on every corner. You couldn't even take your daily excercise walk without swarms of them following ,you shrieking out their mating call 'tenner for a blowjob, love'.

You would be settling down to watch Masterchef or University Challenge, and you would be constantly disturbed by their scabby little faces peering through your window making handjob motions at you.

There would be a dramatic increase in STDs, marriage breakdowns and social chaos.

Truckers are the wasps of humanity.

Have to imagine their backs are against the wall just finding clients with this virus and being hard pressed to cover ends meat. An overworked trucker has to feel like a lone soul perusing 2 star Vegas buffets. Have tongs will travel.

It is strange we have a infected nation warning us to stay away from places and people but all these people are told to go to one place, a grocery store. It actually sounds like a perfect plan to spread the virus. Ps that’s not a conspiracy and I know we have to eat it’s just an observation

They've turned into literal reunion centers. Whole families and 2 carts a piece yesterday..stopped right in the only aisle so no one could get by. Co-workers, cousins etc. 6 feet my arse. The disparity in protocols for chain groceries is very surprising. One Winn Dixie has all workers gloved, cart spray down and all masked. One a few miles down the road it's a patch work free for all.

To date only shortage I see are of all things tortillas shells . I'm a flour guy and can only find corn ones. Bit odd. Plenty of everything else. Even rows of TP

Mission tortillas shut down for 2 weeks for cleaning, after getting all their inventory blown out the first week of March. They should have been back online a week ago but they have a lot of catching up to do.
