I own a hair salon. Typically, November is my busiest season. It has been SO quiet. A lot of my colleagues are also saying the same thing and have had to close up shop because of it - or get a second job.

People keep saying it will get better and the economy will bounce back but I don’t know. I am so close from just throwing in the towel, closing up shop and getting a corporate gig.

        Considering how broke they always are, I doubt it. But he will usually trade for crack.

      Probably too far of a commute but I know someone in Union county NJ that needs a drywall finisher to finish his basement (70 sheets) if he is that desperate for work right now.
