That was interesting. It appears there is no relief on the horizon.
I experienced the shipping problem when replacing the counter tops in my new kitchen. I ordered stone slabs from Brazil that never arrived. During the wait I was told they were on a ship waiting to be offloaded at the Port of Houston. Something happened and the container with my stone was lost. The company ordered more stone which had to be quarried in Brazil. The story repeated itself. After nine months I was told the quarry had shut down and no more of this stone was being shipped. I found a different stone I liked better anyway. It was more expensive but the vendor let me have it at the same price we had agreed on.

Unfortunately, stories like yours are all too common. This is dragging our economy down.

We're seeing the impact a Recession brings. It's not being called one by the government or the media - yet it's significant nonetheless.
My friends, this is a time to be selfish. Help yourselves and your families to be financially strong and, hopefully, we'll joke someday about making it through the Covid Recession.

Seams to me that this would come under the Transportation Sec. I have to wonder where Mr. Butt Plug is hiding . .

He's been on paid maternity leave. I hear he's struggling with learning breastfeeding.
