I get up to the dump and pull onto the scales and the scale house has all it's windows completely covered with plexiglass with these small holes in the bottom of the window. They need to look in the back of my box van to see what I have so they wait while I get out, and open the back door. They then have to shuffle around in their little office to make sure they all stay 6 ft away from each other so one of them can get out the door to look in the van. Then they make me get back into the box van and roll up my windows so it is "safe" for them to get out and look in the back. After they take a look they gesture to me that it is "safe" to roll down the windows. Then they attach a sticky note onto a broomstick and poke it out the tiny hole for me to show when I go to the exit scale. The whole time wearing gloves and masks. The guys directing people are doing no such thing and are wearing normal clothes.

I go through the exit scale and I have to show the lady in her protected plexiglass box the number on my sticky note. She then uses a claw to grab my credit card, process it, and give it back out of this little slot in the bottom of the window.

WTF
Lol first paragraph about sums it up here too. Other than certain types of businesses being closed, it's life as usual. Well, there was a line in front of Lowe's because they are only letting so many people in at once. Which basically means people who would probably never come in contact with each other are now waiting in line next to each other... I went to Ace instead.

Is the dump privately run, or run by the government?
