When quarantine started, and most people began to telework from home, my coworkers and I worked double time at our government logistics job. It is interesting how the type of supply demand reflected the current state of the mind that we had. First, people were requesting for hand sanitizer and masks, to protect against the virus. Then it was ventilators, to battle against the virus. Followed by mortuary affairs item, due to the inevitable and tragic result of the virus. But the most inspiring type of orders we received was the increasing amount of asks for cloth masks, as we began to learn the importance to protect one another and to slow the spread. Anyway, we had some long days at work, but it was rewarding, plus the traffic to work and back was nonexistent! Glad I could support and be a part of this crazy year of 2020!
