MAHIGIT tatlong buwan din pa lang sarado ang restaurant ni Kris Bernal dahil na rin sa community quarantine. Pero tuloy pa rin ang pagpapa-suweldo ng Kapuso actress sa kanyang mga empleado.
“House of Gogi had to close for 3 months or more to adhere with the ECQ guidelines. It greatly affected the volume of sales. I still pay for the monthly rental fees and support my 18 employees,” say ng Kapuso actress.
Aniya, paraan niya ito para kahit paano ay makatulong sa gitna ng krisis.
“For me, it’s extremely important to have employees that are able to keep their jobs. From a personal standpoint, I believe in helping people as much as I can, and the last thing that I would want to have to do is put someone in a position where they would potentially lose their job and not be able to pay bills or buy essential goods.”
Hanga kami kay Kris dahil hindi naman madaling kumita sa panahon ngayon. Isa nga sa natutuhan niya sa gitna ng pandemya ay ang maingat na paghawak ng pera. “I’m becoming smarter with my expenses. I used to be an impulsive buyer. Today, before I buy something that is not essential, I get back to the item for 5-7 days and assess if I still want it. I am careful about online shopping and try my best to resist the temptation to overspend.”
May payo rin siya sa mga tulad niyang businesswoman: “Since everyone is into online, adjust into the new norm. Focus less on what you’re used to doing and more on what people need. Be resourceful with supplies and make everything minimalist.”
Si Kris ang bibida sa bagong episode ng Wish Ko Lang ngayong Sabado (August 29). Makakasama niya rito sina Biboy Ramirez, Ahron Villena, at Barbara Miguel.
