Or not. Then roofing is down to four colors and dwindling supply. No rubber gloves for weeks. And on and on. Phuk China... I think we slow down drastically by late November/December.

China sucks....my stair parts supplier sent me five newel posts for a stairway i was building...I opened all five and found them all to be defective junk...I asked him where they came from....CHINA!
Only supply problem we're having is the PT......other than that we are moving right along with several houses being framed at once.
I wouldnt mind a slowdown soon....things are way to hectic right now.
In 47 years of working as a carpenter... I have never been out of work...be it a recession or a pandemic..worked right through all of them....also I believe that I could go just about anywhere and find work...and not just survive but succeed.
I'm seeing help wanted signs everywhere I go. This economy will be stronger than ever after the re-election.
