    from the construction side of the argument, there are jobs, but the vendors/contractors are bidding DIRT CHEAP right now just to get work. I can name 2 competitors of mine who bid EVERY job at zero profit margin just to keep techs busy.....in some cases they are running at -30pts profit on their materials. Just 1 year ago we were in the 30's for margin.

      Yeah, if you can't find a job you either are A.) Under qualified, B.) Over qualified, or C.) A lazy bastard that relies on Job services.

      At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!
