Commercial truck (semi truck) mechanic. Definitely been slowing all year. Lots of folks very reluctant to fix their equipment correctly, loads are slow and low-paying for a good portion of drivers. They’re literally asking for miracles and then crying about prices. Employer getting scared of paying techs, first year in ten that I’ve been regularly scheduled less than 40 hrs a week. Not looking great, and these trucks are the backbone of the economy
