I don't see the issue.

Nice. Don't let the grumpy old man bring you down. -- nm - Todd Manning Apr 15, 06:43
Usually it's Dawson giving the clap -- nm - oblique Apr 15, 06:43
All things considered, appreciation is better than not appreciation - but very few people want to be "the hero" - they want to do their jobs safely - Reagen Apr 15, 06:41 5
- This is an unpopular opinion that I'm not exactly sure I subscribe to yet, so grains of salt and what not: It's her job. - Name Withheld By Request Apr 15, 07:58
- I understood who it was pointed at and since I'm in no position to help them in any real way I show my gratitude by clapping and whistling for them - Krusty Apr 15, 06:48 3
  - Right? I'm setting an alarm - ty97 Apr 15, 06:51 2
    - Two more blocked callers !! -- nm - JackDawson Apr 15, 06:52 1
      - *stocks up on burner phones* -- nm - ty97 Apr 15, 06:53
Thoughts and prayers! -- nm - Shaun Apr 15, 06:30 12
- I don't think it's the same thing as those meaningless wishes. - Krusty Apr 15, 06:33 11
  - You both fail at reading perhaps the shutdown has shutdown your abilities! - JackDawson Apr 15, 06:51 7
    - I can't imagine someone's response to a discussion about helping the essential workers is to share a video of clapping. - Krusty Apr 15, 07:04 6
      - I get in part because I'm in a profession that often gets "oh my you guys are so important I don't know what we'd do without you" - Reagen Apr 15, 07:11
      - Of course *some* people are doing that. T&P yo. -- nm - Shaun Apr 15, 07:08
      - The response is “look at how appreciative we are of them, it’s so cool and awesome and thoughtful and it happens every night!” - JackDawson Apr 15, 07:05 3
        
        What are you going to do? Fly back here into the virus? - Krusty Apr 15, 07:10 2
        
        No why would I do that? To clap at 7 pm with you?! -- nm - JackDawson Apr 15, 07:25 1
        
        Your soft hands couldn't handle the clapping. - Krusty Apr 15, 07:42
  - Right. It's not saving lives or anything, but it's a sign of appreciation and I think that's nice. -- nm - ty97 Apr 15, 06:35 2
    - That's how I see it. -- nm - Krusty Apr 15, 06:38
    - Like, if I had a supply of PPE in my apartment that I was hoarding, then sure it would be hypocritical. But I don't. -- nm - ty97 Apr 15, 06:37
