The last two months have been interesting, to say the least. What’s the report from the Universal Headquarters of Slayton Solutions at the bunker in Bucktown Chicago? Well, the reality of the COVID-19 attack has changed a whole lot of things for us, and created some interesting opportunities to do things differently. After getting ultra-shaggy, I borrowed the Wahl hair clippers from my mother (the same torture device that she used to mow my hair to a buzzcut in 1962). Surprisingly, it still works after 50 years, and my wife Joan’s first manly haircut actually came out pretty well. Plus, the cookbooks are getting quite a workout.
In light of the current situation, I believe we all need to step back and try to envision the future. The COVID-19 pandemic has us moving into a “Brave New World” for our customers, be they retail, restaurants, schools or any other place where people come together to work or play. We can expect new standards from government bodies and private companies to help protect employees and customers.
