What about safety of customers

Date:

Share post:

WHEN YOU OPEN a business place – large or small – during a hurricane after a shut down order, is it only about the safety of your employees?

Aren’t you inviting customers to leave their homes and come to your shop – the very people who have been advised to stay indoors?

Flying galvanised sheets can slice people in half.

Solar panels will not all remain secure on roofs.

Eighty-year-old mahogany trees will fall.

High tension power lines can end up across the roads, and vehicles can be washed away drowning their occupants.

I remember the 1949 flood and the 1955 hurricane called Janet. A hurricane is not a picnic.
