How is it lunacy? The virus is mostly fake anyway.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Opening 24 hours is lunacy.

Why? A lot of business and services run 24 hrs anyway.

What's next, open on Sunday!? :hehe:

I see Scot's point though. It's not like they're going to give the employees that want it the extra hours.
The latest fad is a poverty social. Every woman must wear calico,
and every man his old clothes. In addition each is fined 25 cents if
he or she does not have a patch on his or her clothing. If these
parties become a regular thing, says an exchange, won't there be
a good chance for newspaper men to shine?

You know what they say - what the UK does in the spring the Netherlands will do in the autumn.

Petrol stations, some restaurants, convenience stores, some Walmarts - plenty of 24/7 places here.

Transport, healthcare, offices, manufacturing, utilities, cleaning, food prep, deliveries. There's a lot of people working in the dark to keep us happy while we're safely tucked in with a monastery ale and a copy of Razzle.
