Supply Chain Shortages?

[Amishman]

7. all depends on what you are looking for

consumer goods are mostly just supply disruptions. The pandemic shutdowns drained what little slack was in the supply chain, goods go straight out from distribution centers to stores. There isn't much inventory beyond what is on the shelf, so if the shelf goes bare, it might be a few days or a week until it gets restocked.

Construction is completely up side down right now. We have a relative who is having the home renovation from hell (house being reworked to move bedroom to first floor and other changes due to mobility issues). There was a mixup on the new front door, and its going to be sixteen weeks to get the correct door. They actually salvaged the old one out of the reno dumpster and temp framed it back in place. This is just one of at least half a dozen things that have gone horribly wrong due to materials availability.
