However, if they offered a metered approach then they may be second guessed.

I see this when our firm seeks outside experts to help us navigate issues with our firm. For example, if we have an HR issue or a tax issue, I can count on our HR counsel and or our accountant to provide us the most conservative advice, costing us the most money.

A healthy amount of skepticism isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially when it concerns our government.

Ok, boomer.

What a shock....we have gone from why Gov. Sununu decided to ruin the hospitality sector to testosterone-laced comments re whose fault this whole Coronavirus disaster belongs to, topped off with Gen X vs Boomer comments. Hmmm...how about this? If any of you, born in the ‘60’s or so, have offspring known as “Millennials “, would you please be kind enough to tell them to stay the hell out of the bars and off the beaches during spring break so that we might have a chance to limit the spread of this deadly virus? We need to pull together to fight this, and many in the younger generation just don’t get it, or choose not to.

The corona virus isn't targeting them, so why would they worry?

They're still young enough to feel immortal, and hey, when the older generation dies they'll get their inheritance that much quicker.

Shut up with this phrase already. I'll say again, I hope you're not an educator.

My students do not put any ideologies before facts, nor casually insult the professions of others. They're also definitely not the "snowflake generation" the older ones claim they are, based on the reactions here to a popular phrase all around the Internet that is not about age, but responding to asinine assertions.

I'm out, peace.

I know several millennials for whom it is definitely about age. “The Boomers ruined our prospects. It’s all their fault I have huge student loans.” How about not going to a $50k/year school for a profession that won’t allow you to pay back those loans?

When I taught, the majority of my students fit into the “snowflake” category. Surprisingly, the hockey players were some of my best students.

Yesterday I needed to see my doc for a sudden ailment (not respiratory) and was able to get an appointment at around noon, within 90 minutes of my calling. I was the only one in the waiting room. My being there solo and the ability to get in and out fast tells me that so far the spread is limited here... so far.
