Opening up stores and restaurants and keeping everyone safe is not any easy task. Each business faces unique circumastaces and challenges - below is a message from Andy's Candy, reminding us to be patient with our local business community.
repost @andyscandyapothecary:
Looking ahead...we will be continuing curbside pickups, deliveries, and shipping indefinitely. In the coming days we will be restocking and redecorating our storefront and likely will open up for some kind of limited/private shopping next week. Stay tuned for more details as we figure it out, and be sure to follow us on FB and Instagram for updates.
As things begin to open up, please everyone, have patience with your local retailers, restaurants, and other small businesses as they navigate through this unprecedented situation. Every business is different and needs to figure out the best way to stay safe, protect their staff, protect their customers, and stay afloat financially. Few owners will ever open up fully about what a difficult and stressful time this has been, and how hard it is to figure it all out.
Stores may take weeks to open up, may have reduced hours/days of operation, may go cashless, may ask you to wear a mask, or may request you wait outside until adequate social distancing can be achieved inside. Please, we ask you, accept these adaptations, compromise, and don't hassle the store owner or employee who is asking for your cooperation. This is Sacramento! We are a tight community and can make this work if we have patience and compassion for one another.
