In late March, Britney Ruby Miller, co-owner of a small chain of steakhouse restaurants, confidently proclaimed that once the viral outbreak had subsided, her company planned to recall all its laid-off workers.
Now? Miller would be thrilled to restore, by year's end, three-quarters of the roughly 600 workers her company had to let go.
“I’m being realistic,” she said. “Bringing back 75% of our staff would be incredible.”

I am an independent insurance agent. I talk to business owners. They are in fact looking carefully at who worked hard under difficult condition and who seemed to mentally shift into neutral. The latter will be replaced. I know I have employees that engaged and worked diligently to take care of customers and quote new business. We have actually grown over the lock down. Further, I own an antique store (slight money looser historically). Three of four staff members refused to work normal hours. One of them has continued to come in and do a key part of her job. She can come back when she is ready. The two that didn't do anything and were openly critical of my decisions to fight for our existence can go pound sand. I am hiring and the revenue is there. First month fully open albeit with spacing we are on track to hit the number I have been trying to wring out of my former, yes former manager for a number of years. It is there if you want to fight for it. Americans do not roll over. Socialist piss ants roll over.
