[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The restaurants, coffee shops, and flower vendors are starting to flourish again. There are some great things happening, too. I guess you have to take the good with the bad. [/quote]

[quote]A new survey from the Restaurant Association Metropolitan Washington (RAMW) reveals that more than two-thirds of casual dining restaurants will likely close this year.

The survey cited escalating food costs, federal layoffs, and tipped wage increases as some of the reasons for the expected closures.[/quote][/quote]The RTO is happening now so it will help some of these restaurants out then. [/quote]

While there is RTO there is also lay off. And most of them are aware on what is happening and what the future looks like, and they bag their lunch.[/quote]

Even if I make it through the RIF, I’m not going to be spending $20 on lunch on a regular basis. Just not happening. Instead of grocery shopping at my neighborhood TJ for WFH lunch items, I shop at the TJ closer to my office for lunch supplies I bring to work. Literally zero difference in my spending or the retail beneficiary. [/quote]

That is true for me, too. I have spent very little since RTO. This week, I went out with a coworker for a restaurant favorite pre-pandemic that is going out of business. Restaurants are shutting down, as far as I am tracking.[/quote]
