Dentists suffer big time during recessions. A lot of their work is

I too hope NOYB is in good shape. But, I can call my dentist in the
afternoon and get a next morning appointment. Six months ago I'd have
waited a week, unless it was an emergency.

Yeah, didn't give that much thought. One of my daughters is still a
part-time dental assistant while in college, and the orthodontist she
works for has cut back on his spending.
I think the younger guys who haven't been through recessions/layoffs
are at risk if they don't have their heads screwed on straight.
Used to live paycheck to paycheck myself before I got married.
Hey, that was fun!
