I’m a construction worker/builder between jobs right now, and I haven’t felt like I am capable of making any kind of decision what direction to go in life for the past 2 months. I am curios is anyone has thoughts on switching industries/jobs based on the Trump trade war/annexation. My only idea right now is joining the army, or the ildu or something.
I left IT to open a small amusements company (link) a few years ago. So far we’ve been doing well and just doubled our floor space. Arcades, amusements, movies, etc, usually do well enough in recessions because they are cheap forms of entertainment. A family can’t afford a huge trip over the holidays, but they’ll stay home and see movies and other things.
The one thing that will change is what we have in our candy story. We JUST brought in a bunch of US candies. I’m not pulling them off the shelf but once they sell, I won’t be replacing them. We’re going to look for more UK and Japan candies which have always done well.
