I figure the construction industry is one of those bellwethers of the economy. Construction, be it new buildings or renovations in existing buildings, is one of the first things cut from the government budget when money is tight. Salaries come before maintenance.
I just found out that one of the superintendents I've worked with for the past year and a half is being laid off by his company. He has been doing a good job for me, and it pains me a little to see him go. The guy is at least sixty and has some health problems, so I'm not sure what he's going to do. No one is hiring these days.
He is just one more in the unemployment line. I shouldn't take my job security for granted.
