As someone who worked for one of those companies [because even as a Disabled Veteran, I still need to work], people who had necessities to buy. I saw a lot of Moms buying extremely price cut clothing for children, but not themselves. Even to the point of price checking to see if it was in budget.

I'm so glad a college friend can't see her work being decimated. I never thought that I'd be thinking about all those who have been lost and go straight to thankfulness of them being spared pain.

I selfishly wish they were here, but this timeline is just horrific.
