This virus has helped me to spend more time with my grandkids and do things around my home that I have been pushing off for a while. It gave me a chance to see America join forces & do things for the greater good of the American People.
#Corona kills jobs
The coronavirus has greatly affected me in my job. I work in a fast food restaurant Mcdonalds and the side effect of corona is customers are no longer coming to purchase food. So therefore my hours were cut short.5 to 2 days and I still get sent home because of few customers

Thankful transitions
Normally an active family involved in gym, sports and therapies we have been halted in our tracks. Our lives have transitioned to finding how to do the things we love within the confines of our home. Our youngest son is a transplant recipient, on immunosuppressant medicine for the rest of his life, so the threat is very real to us. It saddens me that more people are not taking this seriously.
Starting adult life on the wrong foot |EJSLW2020
Due to COVID-19 many youth may be happy or relieved because they can partake in schooling online which means more time to sleep, flexibility and convenience. As for me being an 18-year-old senior I do not posses those same feelings. COVID-19 put me at an odd limbo, I will not only miss out on events that are the culmination (prom and graduation) of high school but college as well. COVID-19 put an unwanted and unexpected gap in my transition from adolescence to adulthood and to add insult to injury the government has yet to devise a plan for college students! Its really deterring to possibly still have to pay tuition for a school I am not attending nor reaping the benefits of. All in all , COVID-19 is making adulting harder and more stressful.
A lost senior
Hello Im a senior. I was so excited for my senior year I understand that all the stuff I payed for wasnt really anyones fault but. Every time I look on the news its never about seniors. I was a senior with 27 credits and only needed .5 more to graduate. Im transitioning into signing up for collage and getting ready to pick my path. And all of this is just being left in the air. No one is telling me what to do or how to get ready for the next step. Im so afraid of missing something. My dream school is not even a possibility for me anymore because Im not able to finish the requirements they wanted me to do. I just feel like seniors are being left out of the equation when we are the most affected percentage out of all of this.

EJSEJ20 – Trying to stay positive!
This virus and the hysteria that came with it has came and shock up my entire world. This virus has made me stop and look around at all the things that are extremely important and all the things that aren’t. In other words it has given me a better perspective of what I may have been taking for granted. A good thing that it did was remind everyone of how important relationships are and having a sense of community is vital during times like this. Between work and family I am just trying to stay updated and prepared for whatevers next. It has slowed down life for me and but our operations on hold as an organization. This is still relatively new as we are only in our 2nd full week of quarantine and don’t have a end in sight.
