Tariffs = Layoffs

Spent my day laying off people who had been here for 20+ years., including most of our manufacturing folks. Uncertainty means saving your pennies for a rainy day, not investing in the future.  Unless you are completely naive, I just don't get how you think we would ever consider doing more in the US. Our international customers are leaving us because of the tariff wars and our US customers can afford the high interest rates. 

Sorry... had to vent somewhere. Its been a day of ruining peoples lives. So not fun.
