What’s most disturbing is that on any list/ compilation of top job losses I see most of our clients. It is just a matter of time before that hits us……I know March 30th (fiscal year end)will bring a lot more suprises.
I tell yout this……..JOBS is it…..nothing else matters right now. I hate to say it again but folk that talk about HOUSING as investment seems to me that did not experience true fiscal pain yet. If this mess/recession doesn’t theach us a thing or two – it means we have ways to go yet.
THIS IS THE TOUGHEST ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT SINCE THE GREAT DEPRESSION……I haven’t seen housing drop to 2000 levels yet or 1983 for that matter…..so keep your minds open

January 31, 2009 at 1:48 PM #339332nostradamusParticipant[quote=SD Realtor]Put AMCC on the list. Looks like about 2 weeks from now the group I am in will get whacked along with alot of others. [/quote]
I’m very sorry to hear that. I had guessed you were at AMCC based on some things you said a while ago. In fact I think it was a post where you said you were looking to hire.If it makes you feel better this is the 3rd recession since I’ve been working in this field and it always comes roaring back (so far). Can’t imagine a world without communications, robotics, internet, and all the things engineers bring.
