A Worldwide Crisis
With the Covid-19 pandemic in full swing, Jake and his team had to adhere to serious safety measures. He had to wear PPE, wash his hands as often as he could, and he could no longer chat with his customers. There was one customer, 90-year old Ms. Louise Allen, who was Jakes’s favorite. She loved to reminisce about the times with her late husband to Jake over a cup of hot tea while Jake unloaded her trash.
And so, when Jake knew he had to empty her trash the following day, a feeling of sadness crept upon him. He may not be able to speak to her, but at least he could see her. And wave from a distance. Or at least that’s what he thought.
