Due to the chip shortage, 2 really important technology businesses in my area have regular breaks. Some of my friends ended up getting paid half of what they usually earn for a few weeks due to this.

That's fucking nuts. I've heard remodeling/renovation supplies are becoming almost impossible to get your hands on.

I didn't think of the tech centers or businesses being effected by the chip shortage. It makes sense that they would be under equipped.

My country had been facing shortages everywhere. We have the double whammy of brexit and the pandemic. We have labour shortages (which led to the most retarded petrol panic buying), metal shortages, parts and components across many industries. I believe Nandos (a major spicy chicken place in the UK) had a chicken shortage (that was pretty funny). #
We also are facing issues where manufacturers shut down over 2020 and now in 2021, when we need all of their parts etc, they aren't able to keep up with demand.

Toilet paper is starting to get scarce in my state, the price if meat is growing daily.
