Thanks - I know you're in a similar boat as a construction guy. Our office was heavily focused on retail (something I warned the boss about at least a half-dozen times, but I guess he was just in love with the "easy money" during the good times or whatever). We just hit the wall in the last month or two and I think he saw the writing on the wall. It bites but I'm trying to focus on the silver linings...

I have plenty to get caught up on around home and what-not so it's not like I'll be short of things to do, but it's a bit easier when there's money coming in also. I'm hopeful that something will come along, just the uncertainty kind of stinks.

I was frankly getting kind of sick of where I was anyway - sort of "plateaued", not much real advancement opportunity, wasn't really learning anything new, etc. Maybe a change will be good. We'll see. 2008 has officially been one of the crappiest years of my life for many reasons I won't get into right now (this is just the icing on the cake). I'll be celebrating its departure tomorrow night. Hopefully 2009 marks better days.
