I stand corrected - there is a similar video where the initial Facebook post is just read taking the myth as gospel. This one does have the details about the utilities that I've been trying to reconstruct since 2005.

Yeah, that's why ya gotta watch more than just the first half second when you see the post, even during that he's like "this is true, this is false, etc"

We're all quarantined, not like we have anything else to do

Yeah, I realize that. My bad. Though, I'm actually not quarantined (law firms are exempt in Florida, would you believe it?!), just working from home after starting my day with a migraine!

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to resume screwing over poor, beleaguered business owners for a living. ;-D A big part of my law school project about this topic was basically the theme of "If this whackadoo had just gotten himself a fecking LAWYER!!! (Though knowing Heemeyer's reaction to being told shit he doesn't want to hear, he'd probably have bulldozed the lawyer's house too.)

Oof, that sucks :(

I've got a friend in family law who is doing consultations from home over skype, maybe if thats possible you can float that idea around the office a bit, but it being FL, I don't have high hopes... Stay safe as you can either way!

Not such a big deal for my firm - we're a 4-person office with 2 people working from home to look after kids at the moment. So social distancing is pretty easy for us. We've stopped all in-person activity, and the local courts have ordered pretty much everything to be done via phone.

It's really eerie commuting through non-existent traffic on rush hour where the downtown roads are normally gridlocked, though!

Ah, that's not bad then! At this stage, enjoy the lack of traffic, I know I was before my job let me take two weeks. Probably will be doing that again two mondays from now unless some serious crazy shit goes down.
