I wanted to start a thread for the economy. I’ve read car sales fell off a cliff this last month and home sales and prices are getting sketchy again. More to the point what are you guys hearing on street level? I put the thread here so we could be a little more free in sharing perhaps personal information.
I manage a warehouse for a company that produces fully cooked bbq ribs. We sell to grocery stores across the country and deal with Canada and a little into South America.
We have come to almost a full stop. We are starting to work 2 1/2 day weeks. I’m stretching it but not even getting 40. Yesterday the owner said no one is committing to 2019 yet. They usually do and that’s how we gauge how much raw product to line up.
Anyone else hearing or seeing anything?
I’m hoping this becomes the type of thread like the solar minimum thread. We need as much of a heads up as we can get on weather and finances.
