Safe vs Dangerous in LA

Money talks. It has ever been thus.
Is it right? Not even close. Am I surprised? Same. I wish her luck in getting this out.

Under the county’s guidelines, video and music production is deemed essential. Many production crews also test employees frequently, while under the recent Los Angeles County health order, restaurants like Marsden’s were forced to shut down their outdoor dining.
Allrighty, then.

But the movies, man. The movies!

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Yeah. I second Mik's first comment.
The specifics of her situation are ideal for viral sharing, though. I hope she has a GoFundMe.

That was my initial take but there are valid reasons for viewing these differently, one is the likelihood of the employees being tested frequently and other being one venue is mostly for fun and the other mostly for work. Would be interested in counterpoints to those arguments.

There. We can't go without movies. That would be horrible.

Glad to know she and her employees run the place for fun and not work.

I knew it might be taken that way. I was talking about the customers.

Both are for work. It might be argued that the movie crap isn't imperative (therefore "for fun"), but that would depend on a lot.

I was talking about the clientele not the workers put out to the street.

It would lead to an assload more people unemployed than the woman's business. Just sayin'.
Please love yourself.

I don't see how that's in any way material. Her employees' jobs aren't less important because their clientele are there "for fun," any more than the movie production company and its employees aren't important because "all they do is make movies." You have a small-ass patio that's essential to keep open so that the woman's business doesn't go under. You have a shitload of tents set up for a movie production company that arguably don't need to be, because you can find other logistical means to feed your staff.
(Honestly, what the production company should do is hire the woman for catering. Everybody's happy.)
Please love yourself.

Cumulatively in LA? I doubt it.

No, just her business. As for total restaurants vs. total movie crew, probably you're right? I have no idea.

Great. What about the Food Service people hired to take care of the production staff?

I know very little about movie-making, but what I do know bleeds a little bit into what I know about food service; once you do catering work for one production, and you don't suck, word gets around that you're a catering option. Very slim chance this one contract is going to break the bank for that catering company. (They're tied into essential business, after all.) The woman's business, on the other hand, is on the verge of bankruptcy.
