I'm in the boat business, been laid off since September. Feb. starts boat show season so I'm starting to see the end.

 

I know business is down, but hanging in there. Wife is a realtor and things were slow, but seems to be picking up a little bit for her.

 

Commercial construction, at least in the Fayetteville/Fort Bragg, and the surrounding Sandhills area of North Carolina is still plugging along. The biggest customers are churches and the government, or so it seems. And most of us Superintendents work from project to project.

So to answer your question, I'm good until June when I'm suppose to be done this church I'm putting up. After that, who knows.

 

I was laid off in the middle of Dec.from a driving job.was planing to retire in Aug.of this year anyways,just came a little sooner.

 

Business is doing as well as it ever has, in fact it might get even busier with the economy being crappy and all.
As long as there are criminals I have no worry about losing my job.

 

i still am working.but nothing really happening at my job...not even paying the bills...just disconnect notices...i have been offered a new job on an offshore oil rig and that'll pay the bills and then some and i thank God for this opportunity(sp).

 

Same here Iam in the parts dept.....Our 1st Boat show started today in Fargo ND.......

 

lost one of my jobs...im a full time student but work part time at lowes and circuit city...of course with circuit city going under im done with it...still have a few more weeks left but lowes is running strong!

 

Good luck. Hope you have a good weekend.

 

Just mothballed 50% of our plant and let go of 12 people here in the Indy plant. (speciality mastics manufacturing). I am moving to the only (safe?) west coast plant in AZ and will still oversee mini-Indy and Toronto. We are a small company, 450 people across North America.

I am safe, even a little better off in agreeing to move, but very sad to see us downsize and drop long-timers. Much like MOCO, have to cut costs and any over-capacity to survive.

Sorry.....this became kind of a vent I think.
