I work in industrial sales (conveyor belting) and we are not slowing down. Most of 2021 and last year was the distribution center expansion boom which has slowed, but now we're seeing big expansion projects in multiple areas, especially food, and we're seeing new manufacturing construction. Despite media reports of a looming recession and layoffs, there is tremendous optimism in the industrial space right now. Everyone is hiring and complaining about not being able to find workers. They're still offering low starting wages, for the most part, but I'm starting to see movement on that front as well. I think the next decade is going to be heavily shaped by the "reshoring" movement and it would be nice to see the US have a robust manufacturing sector again.
