Officials estimate close to 25,000 Public School students in oakland dont have their own computer, Internet Access or are underconnected. So far 1. 8 million has been raised for this campaign. Coming up next, perspective from abc7 news contributor and chronicle insider phil matier on what the bay area will look like if and when jobs come back. Plus, we take you to a north bay bakery where a long line was a good sign. Im Spencer Christian. Our showers are winding down. Were drying out, and a warmup is coming our way. But it will be brief. Ill have the accuweather that could mean an increase byin energy bills. You can save by using a fan to cool off. Unplugging and turning off devices when not in use. Or closing your shades during the day. Stay well and keep it golden. Our major focus today is talking about the Economic Impact of the coronavirus pandemic, and were joined now by abc7 news contributor chronicle insider phil matier. Phil, the governor today talked about an Unemployment Rate that could swell to 24. 5 . We talk about it being depression era numbers. Of course many of those jobs will come back, a little bit more quickly than obviously the depression was a totally different thing. Our economy failed then. This time our economy has stalled or been shut down. Talk a little bit about how quickly jobs might recover and how many might not come back. Well, i think its important to reiterate what you said, dan, going out of the gate. Its not that the economy crashed because there was some fundamental flaw or corrosion on the underside and it collapsed like in the depression or the last recession, its because something happened and we decided to turn it off. And the question is how quickly can we turn it back on and get things going. And its going to depend largely on what kind of field your in. Construction, for example. Weve already seen a significant increase in the jobs there because weve simply allowed the projects to start working again. So people are going back to work. Anybody on the bay area road sees the pickup trucks going in and out of the bay area. Agriculture. Its not as if people are going to stop eating. Thats going to come back. Manufacture. Elon musk is opening up tesla and well see how that goes, but those jobs are coming back. The tough news for the bay area is we also deal with tech and we deal with tourism and convention business, and that could be tougher coming back. I mean, San Francisco airport has 42,000 jobs out there, and theyre at 3 right now as far as capacity of airlines coming in. How quickly does that come back . Thats going to depend a lot on the rest of the world and how much money they have to spend. Phil, thats a great point because the lifes blood in some respect in San Francisco particularly and the bay area, wine country and other areas is tourism. Yeah. That could be potentially years before that really comes back to where it was before this happened. Well, weve already lost six months theyre expecting of convention business, dan, and Tourism Business as well. Okay. Its not going to be a great summer. Thats probably 4. 5 billion. Does it come back and how fast its going to come back . Its going to come back. The question is when. San francisco and the bay area has another one. We do what we call business service. We dont necessarily make things, but we make things for companies to do things faster and better, providing business services. Are those companies that are using the apps developed here and the systems developed here going to want an upgrade this year, or are they going to say no, were going to hold off and see how it goes. The surveys of the local businesses and the bay area businesses show that they can handle it for about a month. Some say they can handle it for two months. But everybody is expecting it to be back in two months, and well see what it is. Question a lot of it is going to be is how much disposable income is out there. Granted, 25 are unemployed. But those are the filings at least. Some of those people have jobs, lost hours and now can qualify for a helping hand. So were jumping from building to building where that Action Character in the middle is pumping. Do we hit it . If we do, how much is the tumble before were back on our feet and running again. No easy answers on this. Its going to differ between differ sectors of the economy and the job market. Phil, thanks very much. You can read phil matiers columns in the San Francisco chronicle every wednesday and sunday. Thanks a lot, phil. A bakery in the north bay is symbolic of a small story perhaps telling us a great deal about larger ones. It has to do with economic ripples and how a federal payroll protection loan has restarted a small busines. Here is abc7 News Reporter wayne freedman. For any Small Business, a line is a good sign, an the longer the better. In this case, it also represents a promise of better times. I dont know any of these people, but to just be around other human beings, even with masks on. And so the crowd outside mh bread and butter, the owner letting customers in one at a time. Green dot. Perfect. Thank you. In the back her husband nathan finishing glutenfree mffins. What time did you start work today . It got here at 2 45. Meantime a crush of customers at the counter. If you detect energy inside, there is goo. When coronavirus hit two months ago, this bakery had to lay off 37 employees. Between yesterday and today, almost all of them came back. Like putting people into Financial Hardship is never easy, and also not knowing that if we were going to survive or ever im telling my employees, oh, well bring you back, but i dont know if thats true. Trying to make sure that we were open for them, that we had a business for them to come back to was really important for us. The return happened only after they received a payroll protection federal loan, and that in the second round. Dan came back yesterday. It was a long time. But it went by once we found our routine. But at the beginning, i didnt think we would be out into may now. But they were, and now theyre back, and if you believe in the symbolism of baby steps, take the return of this Small Business to heart. It feels like we might be getting back to some kind of normal at some point. Who wouldnt stand in line for that . In san anselmo, wayne freedman, abc7 news. Good point. Well, did you see some rain out there where you lived today . I certainly did. If i dont missed this storm, guess what .
