For those of you that have your own firms, I strongly encourage you to investigate the "SBA Paycheck Protection Program" aka "CARES" program being offered by the SBA/Federal Government.  This is in response to the Covid-19 crisis we are all experiencing.  This program will provide your company with a loan to be used for payroll and other expenses.  As long as you use the money specifically for certain uses, including payroll, the loan will be FORGIVABLE.   The Cobb Chamber of Commerce held a seminar on March 31, 2020 providing a great overview of this program.  I encourage you to investigate this if you own and operate a surveying firm!   Here is the link to the informative video (it is long - about 1.5 hours, but very informative).

and - here is the link to apply for the loan:
