Driving into Portland today, I saw few stores open but lots of grocery, pizza, Amazon, FedEx and UPS delivery trucks.
Your previous post came across as if you hadn't. It's a pretty mild order. The indefinite time frame is a killer for us. We are already expecting in the range of a 30% downturn if things stopped as they are today for us. As much as I hate the way this state uses EO's to force things though I don't see it practical that new regulations and laws in this matter where voted on at this time. The situation is changing quite rapidly and decisions need to be made. The indecisiveness and half assed measures are going to drag on the situation.
