Be Glad You are In Portable Sanitation!
Although portable sanitation companies
have generally weathered the pandemic
and find themselves in strong condition,
not all entrepreneurs have been so lucky.
• A local bra manufacturer went bust
• A submarine company went under
• A manufacturer of food proces-
sors and blenders has gone into
liquidation
• A sound systems firm had to call in
the receivers
• A hobby store specializing in paper
for origami enthusiasts folded
• A tree trimming operation had to
prune its operations
• A plumber's entire client list went
down the drain
• An archeologist's career is in ruins
• A novelist is stuck in Chapter 11
• The electrician's revenue fell short
• Pork farmers are going belly up
• A window manufacturer went broke
• The makers of paper towels were
nearly wiped out and
• Even the church's exorcism icons
got repossessed
