There's no way I'm waiting, I know you!!! I expect to skip the line or at least show up during special hours, just for me. 😉 I wonder how many people are now driving around with no car insurance ...

Tinker Posted April 11, 2020 Author Share Posted April 11, 2020 Everybody has car insurance right now. We aren’t cancelling for non pay. Not good because i only get paid when the premium has been paid. And no one is buying right now so no new sales to balance it. My last commission check was 1/4 of what it was this time last year. It covered rent and payroll. I took home nothing but work. Even people who could pay are waiting. Hoarding their money. And the ones who did pay want money refunded. Strange times times.

I don't think that's the case around here, Judi. I'm sure cancellations are moving ahead full-throttle. Hang in there!
