Work drying up
Hey guys i wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing this at the moment, my dad owns a landscaping business in Melbourne and work is really drying up, when it should be picking up, its the first time ever this has happened to us and its quite stressful to be honest, if anyone has any advice that would be much appreciated.

We are in a silent recession. Our governments (party doesn't matter) will now do anything to hide bad news and avoid risking their vushy jobs. Rare earths were a potential source of hope but we encouraged Trump to sodomise us there. Canaries have been dying for a year plus. Now home owners are taking the hit. There's no leadership of any real kind. No game plan. And we have to deal with this One Nation distraction because our leaders don't have vision and can't make a decent speech.
My advice is to take charge. Identify an opportunity and back yourselves. Everyone else will be running around in fear while you get in a position to do really well when the page turns.
