The future of our country has never been more uncertain. The country is gaining a new President to kick off 2021, and a national shutdown may be underway. I took time to interview one of our regular readers regarding what a possible shutdown would mean to him and his loved ones. Here is what “quarantine mode” looks like for Jeffrey, a 32 year old Macedonia native who now resides in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio.
- Why would the shutdown be a vacation for you?
Jefferey:I have been pretty much working 60 hours a week for almost 2 years straight other than a two-week vacation each year.
- What was your reaction to the first shut down?
Jeffery:Didn’t really have one and I was still working.
- What do you do for a living?
Jeffery: I work for Little Tikes Distribution Center in Hudson, Ohio.
- How did your family feel about the last shut down and how do they feel about possible future shutdowns?
Jeffery: As far as I know everybody still worked they deemed kids toys an essential business because our customers are Walmart Target and Amazon.
- Were you about to keep up on bills?
Jeffery:Yes.
- How did you spend your time during the Last shut down?
Jeffery:How do you plan on spending your time if a future shutdown happens? I worked last time. If we get shut down. I’ll just enjoy the time off.
- How are you going to spend your $600 stimulus?
Jeffery: Probably invest it into my stock portfolio.
- Do you think the Senate will cave in and give everyone an extra $1400?
Jeffery:At this point, who knows, I hope so a lot of people could use it, especially restaurant workers and bartenders.
