Huh, rustling! Maybe there's hope for us yet. But then, it was in the bed room and these days................................, so maybe not.

I work in supply chain for a major retailer. We are seeing shipments come in very spotty. We should be banging right now, but we only had 39 trailers in the yard monday.

Some major companies are brining factories to Mexico as we speak becuase they can't get goods from Asia.

Very similar experience that I see. Our biggest issue is we simply can't hire drivers fast enough to replace the ones retiring or quitting. We are losing drivers nationwide faster than they can be replaced. The drivers who remain have all been working 60-70 hours a week and are increasingly getting burned out.

It's really not shaping up to be a good situation at all.
