No reason to take a job of a location that is closed. Or to do any job that isn't a good idea right now.
All in-person shops are bad ideas right now.

Just a caution from a state with a quickly growing list of infected. (California). We have over 1,400 infections that are confirmed right now. Who knows how many are unconfirmed as testing is rare. Granted this is a big state. But a little over a week ago we had no cases listed in the large swath of West LA I live in. Based on reports it seemed perfectly safe to walk around, shop and visit friends. People were not washing hands or limiting friends visits and were going out to dine. Last Sunday I was at El Torito for a pick up and they told me their Sunday brunch with a buffet format had been completely booked. Then last Sunday night the closures started happening in earnest. Things changed very quickly. Things got very scary minute by minute and the rules keep getting more stringent. So take a listen those of you in states with little outbreak...we were there less than 2 weeks ago in Southern Calif...not the case in Northern Calif which is 500 miles away so it was not so worrisome around here.
Where ever I went and whatever I did less than 2 weeks ago was with only a slight bit of caution compared to now. I spent 14 days worrying about perhaps getting the virus because the family my daughter babysits for were all sick (mild coronavirus?? no testing for light sickness). She stopped going there but not until after that first day of handling two babies/toddlers with the parents home sick too. That 14 day period is over but I also had dinner with friends. Not a biggie 10 days ago. I knew them well. But 8 days later one of them started not feeling well at all. So now I am sitting at home wondering if I will follow his path. I have only 4 more days to wonder within the two week window. I am not getting crazy but you do not want to go places you really do not need to and then a week from now when suddenly the numbers in your state are high wonder why you did that. And wonder whether you exposed yourself or others to infection. No matter how careful you are, when you are out there you are exposed. The chance might be slight but the consequences may not be. We had zero cases reported in my little neighborhood and then suddenly we had a death. I have no idea who it was as a little neighborhood here can contain thousands and thousands of people. So now we have 2 infected and one death according to the stats. Be careful as you do not know when suddenly things will tip over where you are.

By the same logic, there's nothing wrong with my offering you money to go into a burning home or if I were to sell you drugs, I would have no culpability.
