Commercial construction is rolling over hard now. A neighbor is having a shop built. The guys who dug the foundation said they haven't had a job in over 5 weeks.
Another fellow has been steadily downgraded over the past year. He went from foreman at $23/hr, to concrete finisher at $16/hr, to no job 2 weeks ago.
The retailers/wholesalers catering to the construction industry rarely have more than one customer (me) within. Lumber yards, hardwood supply, HVAC supply, and plywood/cabinet wholesale are all dead as night.
It is quite ugly out there, but it could be a lot worse.
