    Holy shit. Everyone is hurting.

    i said a long time ago NO JOB SECTOR, not even health care or law enforcement would be immune.. and yes cops are being laid off as well,this has been going on for a couple months now.no new news here..

    as far as fast food, around here no one is hiring. the people who have the fast food jobs sure as hell aint losing them.. a job is a job..

    The economy is still booming around here. Places always hiring, the turn over rate at places in this area is ridiculous. I blame it on drugs. But yeah, if you guys all move here, then hellz yeah, jobs all around and when those are filled, there's like a billion people here, so we can start new businesses...it's a fantastic solution.

    I really don't care. If the world is going to go to shit, if it's going to end, whatever, just let it happen. I can't control what happens tomorrow especially by myself, so there's no point in wasting the time I could be enjoying life worried about tomorrow. If I die in the next half an hour, at least I'll have died doing what the fuck I felt like.

    My old job, out of the blue, called me yesterday and asked me to come back to work. :D
    But yeah, it's funny to look at the classified ads. BLANK as shit. Our town chronicle usually had only about 5-6 postings a week, now it will go weeks without any.

    Our little hospital/clinic has been letting go of people left and right for awhile, but to blame that all on the economy isn't really all that fair considering, with their change of owners and what not.
