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.

    I didn’t pay mine during that time because I was laid off just like 250,000 other people in my metro. Many business owners didn’t pay them because no one was fucking shopping for 1.5-2 years. Don’t be a simpleton. This is a complex issue.
