I'm not in the court system. Cicil notary which in my country has more to do with last wills and testaments, transfers of registered properties and mortgages (all which have to go through notaries here). They don't seem to stop at this point in time and would be impossible to stop (especially last wills and testaments as more people get sick).

something went wrong at the vet hospital in town. normally i get my prescriptions for my dog there. the receptionist had dementia or something which made it very hard to get a order of apoquil for my dog.

hope they fill it by monday she'll run out. if she doesn't get it i don't want to imagine what would happen (lose hair again).
normally it's filled within 4 days.

Nope. I'm irreplaceable, not that I'm amazing or anything, just the field I work in is very niche and there's only about 3 people in my whole region capable of it, and the other 2 have lucrative jobs - the company I manage is performing better during the virus, I'm looking at my biggest end of month bonus other than Christmas. No chance to spend it mind, but it's nice to have anyway and I'm grateful I'm not in the other bracket.

I know plenty that are worried sick though, they're still employed now, but when this all rolls over, it's debatable whether the industries they work in will have enough work for all of them to go back to. Plus there's going to be a LOT of newly unemployed people that might be better qualified and work for less money. Folk think this will be all over in months, which is poppycock, the aftershocks of it all will cripple the economy for years, and 10,000s of business will be going under. I'm worried about my football team right now, supported them all my life and they're a big part of my social circle, yet how on earth will they get by paying players high wages with absolutely no ticket money coming, or TV money for games they'd have been playing. It doesn't bear thinking about how many businesses are in that same position right now, many of them a lot more important than guys kicking a call around.

I don't envy anyone with their own small business which relies on daily takings yet isn't on the stay open list, this must be heartbreaking for them.

Have you possibly tried an online pharmacy? At least then the idea is they (the vet staff) dont have to think about it, have the doctor sign off and the pharmacy should be able to send it to ya. Either way, I hope you get your meds for your pup.

if by monday they don't have it filled there's a costco that may be able to fill the medication. i might have to try that.

only need to get a referral.
it's a wait and see thing.

recently they're allowing to do that.

I work for Costco. May not be impressive but I'm working 50+ hours 8 weeks in a row now at 28.45 an hour, for the moment at least. The way our over time works, this puts me at just under 6 figures if this was maintained all year, which it won't be but I'm financially stable as a rock right now.
