Let’s address our stock shortages. I hope y’all took inventory of your stock and know where you are short. For us, it’s water without a doubt. I have secured one more hand-crank radio. Awesome! We are going to stock up on some personal female needs and toilet paper as we can. Again, do this as your budget allows.
First, there’s a buzz for truckers to strike in protest to Biden’s no fracking policy. And there’s also a buzz for them to strike to protest Trump’s “projected” loss. (Remember: Projected means plan. SCHEME.) Let’s be clear on something, truckers aren’t going to stop driving when it feeds their family. No more than a factory worker is going to quit their job when it’s the only thing feeding their family. It’s simply not going to happen. Maybe if their family is hungry and hurting because of their job. They will strike. Otherwise, the wheels will keep turning. I say this as the niece of two late uncles that drove trucks for a living.
Second, rationing is coming back. Oh! Excuse me, limits on products. Stores will be strictly enforcing them again. This does concern me as a parent. As you know my daughter works as a courtesy clerk at the local Kroger and people are already been buying in bulk. She had told me a couple of weeks ago. It was announced on 11/10 that Kroger will start enforcing limits again. They didn’t go away it’s that Kroger cashiers at my local Kroger where my daughter works stopped enforcing them as strictly. They will have to enforce them once more.
Please remember, they are just doing their jobs. The enforcement of the limits is what the corporate office tells them.
