There was already a service industry labor shortage before the omicron variant, but now things are going from bad to worse for a number of North Texas restaurants.
Covid-19 outbreaks among staff have prompted some restaurants to scale back to take-out only or to close altogether.
"My husband started showing symptoms on Christmas Day, actually. And so we all went and got tested and so my two daughters and I, all three, tested positive," said Sarah Carlock.Carlock decided to close up shop until January 9. "We already wear masks when we're serving, so we're already trying to take those protocols," she explained. "This new variant, it still remains to be seen how difficult it's going to be. Yeah, I just don't know what to expect."
