Woodtick Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I’m hearing lots of lay offs coming. Air lines,hotels, and banks. The trickledown from some of these big industries will be big. Lots of retail and restaurants won’t be opening back up. Americans are clueless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most guys were hoping to be laid off so they could collect their govt cheese and have a nice vacation. I fucking hate being out of a job. If I’m not called back by sept I’ll be heading back to Indiana 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member steve from amherst Posted May 6, 2020 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted May 6, 2020 Snap back no. The effects will be felt by many for a while.

I was gonna forward you some dipshit from HCS selling his 20 gade with 3500 for $12k so you could laugh at him too. But, there is a 17 black mxz 850 with 2300 miles in Duluth for $7k....if you were in the market still. That’s worth a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos Danger Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I am not sure how but my place has been gang Buster's for a couple of years now. Usually slows up in the summer but for the second summer in a row we are going to be full tilt. I think our stuff is scheduled so far out that we won't feel this for a year or more.
