CV and mad panic behaviour

[LP]

I like the nuance in your post EB. You’ve blamed Covid for your in-laws plight rather than the lockdowns or restrictions that are used to contain it. And I’m sure everyone can empathise with their plight as we’ve all suffered to some degree (though, I hope, not to the same degree). Sure, cafés & restaurants have always been risky, but who could have foreseen they’d be swept away by a tsunami like this?

Yes, being a newbie in that sector would not help, supplier issues, functional changes, you would be learning on the ropes while the shape of the ring and opponent keeps changing.

Ironically, in my area some food based services are booming, I think it's partially just luck of the draw. They have reduced wages because they don't employ wait staff, and sales are up dramatically based on takeaway and home delivery. Others that were primarily focussed on seated service have been smashed. Obviously, experience must play a part, especially in managing waste.
