5 people laid off, I was one. Laid quite a few off over the last month, figured I would have been gone long ago. Oh well Looks like I got time to crank a lot more hours into my side work lol.


Anyone hiring? lol.

If you wanted to move to Farmington the oilfield is in big demand. Could hook you up in one of the gas plants at about 50-60k a year starting. Cost of living is cheap here compared to vegas.

Sorry to hear bud, but i think you're right. Everything is slow here.... time to start looking.

Sorry to hear this Mike. I guess I should count my blessings with my business(plumbing). I've hired 3-new employees in the past 2-weeks.
Look into the commercial architectual area. This is whats keeping me swamped with work(commercial).
Good luck

seems to be getting slow everywhere :(

Sorry to hear that Mike and Wes.

Yep things are getting slow here too. They are doing a one day plant shutdown, to " Cut Costs". I am thinking there may be some more time off too. Rumors are they may go to a 4 day work week. That would not be good for me.
