if a business deems you essential, and they don't have a way to let you stay over night and expects you to drive in that, the owner/manager is an idiot.
my wife works at the hospital and essentials are staying, and at the plant i work at, same thing essentials are staying on site..
it seems the ones who make people drive are trying to save a buck while risking their employees lives.. that is terrible management, and if i got into a wreck because i had and ultimatum to come to work, that's lawsuit city..
