Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I've never felt so defeated. I'm going to have to let my employees go and close my business. I can't hold on any longer. If the world is gonna change, I pray that it is the next 3 days.
Praying for you, do not lose hope. You lasted this long against an enormous, corrupt, driven, evil system. Take that system for what it's worth, get out whatever bankruptcy, welfare, taxes, insurance, that you all can. Lord knows they've stolen enough money from us to cover all our lives and more. You are not alone, many of us are just getting by. But it doesn't look like it will be in a couple of days, probably can't be sooner than months from now. Pull your family together and God will send something your way.
I am so sorry to hear this fren. Covid killed my business & this Bidenomic phase has left businesses without enough cash flow for services like mine.
Unfortunately not all businesses can trim enough to remain afloat if the demand isn't there (economic hardship, tranny beer choices, culture shift, etc...). Have considered a reorganizing bankruptcy that would force a lenders to accept lower payment & interest rates? I forget which chapter that is, though it might be a hail Mary, it may be an option.
