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 sell expensive specialty food. July was my best month ever when it’s usually a bad/off-season month. Every month since has outperformed the previous month. I’ll get downvoted but businesses need to learn to adapt and change, you can’t remain stale. People keep shouting about the economy but it’s just not true.
