This is just a quick word of thanks to all of the people working in stores and supermarkets — the cashiers and service people, along with the warehousing and supply workers.  We know that your jobs can be difficult even on the average day!  (Hey, I worked retail for a long time.)

Now you are on the front lines as America faces a crisis that is barely comprehensible to a lot of us.  The dangers you may be facing are not lost on us.

Thank you.
