1^st – Servers

• When the COVID-19 lockdown started it had affected so many jobs around the world.

This virus kept over 114 million people out of work. During the tough times a lot of

people struggled to even find new jobs because everything was closing due to a severe

illness around the world. There were a lot of people getting sick and just a very sad time for the hard workers. Restaurants around the world we’re closing and there was a

tough time for servers to get paid. Being a server was a job required for people to have face-to-face contact with each

other and because there was a virus those protocols were prohibited due to a shut

down.   When the restaurants were closing down people who were working as that server

lost their jobs and was struggling to find another hobby or workplace. As the months

went by, restaurants started to open but only for delivery services only. Servers still had

a hard time trying to find a job because the hours of operation at the restaurant we’re

only for a limited time which is a huge effect. In the aftermath, restaurants opened back up for a limited capacity of people. Servers still wasn’t making the right amount as usual. In the aftermath, servers were required to wear masks while working in order to not get sick. This picture shows a woman who’s in work-mode on duty working.

Security- 

Being a security guard is not a easy job. You have to watch people before they make a mistake, you have to control crowds, and you have to hear the mouth of someone else often. Before there was a lockdown

Events we’re opening all around the world for the city of Atlanta. The Mercedes been stadium is where I work and I had just got a job there October 2019, five months later there was a serious illness breaching to the United States. We had to go in lockdown and it affected me and other people who worked as a security guard. It also affected the events that were supposed to be taking place for the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Most of the people at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium who works there were impacted heavily and it was very sad because a lot of those workers were very elderly ages range from 19-70. Most of the age range were 50-70. They were impacted The words because that was their only job and it got took away because of the pandemic. As the months went by we can do anything about work because riots and crowds were taking over Atlanta while there was a serious illness. Next, around July happened and Arthur Blank gave out a $1 million fund for workers at the stadium. So we had something coming in every month but it was not enough to support the family. In the aftermath, when August 20 20 started did stadium begin to open back up for football season but the protocols were very different. I did not know how we were going to go back to work during an illness. So I briefly read the rules on when coming back to work. The rules were very different than normal, we had to wear masks, we had to monitor people very differently by doing it with technology and we had to use hand sanitizer more often. I did not know how this was going to work but the minute I went back to work. Everything went very strictly well.

• Doctors & healthcare workers-?

on the other hand,  despite this illness taking out servers and event securities out of work. There was one job that was still required to work every day during the lockdown. Before the crisis, there were healthcare workers who did their jobs with not much precaution but when every other stores and businesses close down temporarily, hospitals and doctors were still required to work. They had to handle their job with the lot of protection. Doctors were required to wear protective shoe wear, mask wear, clothing wear and headwear. This was huge so they had to protect their self while working. People who were working had to be very careful about going out every single day while there was a serious disease going around the world. This was very concerning because every day was a hard day for them. Workers that worked in hospitals had to wake up every day and have a lot of shenanigans going on at their jobs. When I mean shenanigans they had to deal with people dying, a lot of victims from this disease in the hospital, and it was a very busy day every day. After business is started opening up, the workers still have to wear masks and protective wear to keep from getting this disease because even though things slow down and businesses opened up, the business in the health industry continue to be the same. This argument is Stated how workers process through a global shut down.
