I was talking yesterday to a friend that works in management for a school bus company. They furloughed their drivers as each school district shut down. Now they think they made a mistake and are scrambling to figure out a way to not permanently lose a significant number of drivers. They are trying to find money for bonuses and other ways to give drivers some type of pay while they are out. Their drivers all have CDL's and DOT cards. People with those things are still in high demand in other transit/transport/shipping sectors. They couldn't hire enough drivers before this and now they fear they will lose some of the ones they had for good.
I think the 18th is just a date that gives them 3 more weeks to wait and see how things develop. No one knows how soon all these restrictions will be able to be relaxed and removed, least of all Disney. The number of known infections hasn’t peaked yet.
Hope everyone is well I’ve noticed a drop in posts to this thread which is certainly understandable. I’m in the 60 + range so it certainly has my attention. Stay well DIS friends. We will recover and be back at the parks before too long but paying attention to the directions of experts will help to make that happen.
in the mean time let’s keep the conversaion going to provide a much needed diversion.

I take my lead from the Asian parks which have all been closed for over 2 months now and still no talk of reopening. Given that the US is now sadly leading the cases of this terrible disease, I think people are just hedging their hopes based on the current situation. We need to get our world healthy before we can talk about opening the parks again.Personally, I've taken a big step back from posting/reading on DISboards. Nowadays, anytime the closure is brought up (which is often) it just seems the most negative people are responding. Calling people crazy who have hope for May. I think we can be realistic and still have hope, but not at the moment on these boards.
The boards are just very much doom and gloom, so besides reading trip reports I've been attempting to stay away. I let myself log on every few days to see if real news has been happening.
