As an aside, I called the accountant last week regarding our personals. I was looking for some guidance on a deduction. He told me “Who the fuck knows if you’ll even be paying them this year?” That’s reassuring.
We are cutting our burn because we don't know how long this will last. Bringing people back ASAP would be great, but it's going to be months and months.
