Can't Really See Why

I can't see why the building industry can't continue, but open to your views as to why not.
Walking past a site yesterday where their building houses, and of course they are all at different stages of completion, I did wonder what the real cost is going to be in terms of damage to work in progress, that has had to just been left .

For example a lot of the houses have there roof trusses in place awaiting tiles, with these timbers exposed to the rain then sun, will they not just twist/ split over time. Just one area that I though of, there's sure to be others ??
Getting back to the work force on these sites most work on their own, electricians, brickies, ( may be two on one house) but one each side, well apart, plumbers tend to work on their own, 2 men tiling roof. Unless I have it all wrong, surly some work could carry on to try and keep the wheels turning. what's your opinion.

12.30 might have to be a change of career there after this has passed, can't see many shops opening, more not re-opening.

Diddly, ours is doing both a drive through service and deliveries at the moment.

I think sooner or later regardless of government directive businesses will find a way of operating, or go bust, especially the ones that have no support from government, or can't get it, sink or swim if you like.
