A
The
american
rescue
plan
act
will
be
very
beneficial
to
my
business.
It
is
really
going
to
be
a
lifesaver.
My
business
was
really
experiencing
a
lot
of
growth
and
I
was
looking
at
possibly
being
able
to
think
about
in
the
near
future,
expanding
maybe
even
into
a
bigger
space,
and
I
had
increased
my
staff
and
coveted
hit,
and
basically
it
just
it
changed.
A
Everything
was
tough
because
people
were
still
afraid
to
even
come
out,
so
my
business
was
very,
very,
very
slow
and
reduced
to
the
point
where
I
I
really
had
to
let
all,
but
one
of
my
staff
members
go.
You
still
have
your
expenses
and
your
equipment
failures.
Then
you
know
you're
getting
busy
again,
but
now
you've
got
okay.
How
do
I
get
all
this
work
done
with
half
my
staff
or
less
it
takes
a
while
to
catch
up.
Basically,
all
of
my
customers
have
come
back.
Above
all.
A
If
you
are
happy
in
your
business
and
what
you're
doing
you
ought
to
keep
the
faith
and
you
have
to
be
patient
and
realize
everybody
is
going
through
this
on
their
own
level.
It
may
not
be
the
same
for
a
while
and
it
may
take
a
long
time
to
come
back
100,
but
then
you
know
before
you
know
it.
You
may
be
busier
than
you
were
before.
