The governator of Ohio issued an executive order Sunday to shelter in place. Odd thing, the order was written by the state health commissioner.
The order has an impressive list of businesses and individuals that are 兎ssential? And yes, the cannabis industry and it痴 growers, retailers, processors, and employees are essential.
The company I work for makes essential equipment in multiple categories. I work in an essential department providing support to essential equipment. But I can work from home so life is good.
My wife manages a construction equipment rental store. She had already warned me they were considered an essential business by FEMA and a whole bunch of other alphabet soup agencies. So she and her employees are considered essential employees by the Federal Government. Which means the state has to make them essential also.
But, the corporate people read the State of Ohio order and all kinds of red flags went up. After many hours of studying the order, calls to the state, corporate attorneys studying the order, all stores in Ohio received a document that had to be provided to all employees and must be with the employee at all times. The document is a mere 16 pages long. You read that right, 16 pages! With the way the order is written, their corporate people feel this is necessary to protect their employees from possible legal action by the state.
You just can稚 make this stuff up....
Everyone stay safe out there
