Quarantine - Day 33

Today the Governor announced that schools throughout the state would not be reopening. Shortly after that we received an email saying our remaining contracts were being postponed to the “future”. This left us to contemplate what that future might be. Perhaps there will be flying cars, fully automated kitchens, and trips to other planets. The email didn’t really go into much detail. I am still somewhat amazed at how the people who are paid big sums of money to make big decisions leave so many details surrounding those decisions to be figured out by others who so much earn less. We, who now earn nothing, have much to figure out. The only real scarcity is time itself, which as noted by the esteemed physicist Steve Miller, keeps slipping into the future.
