4. Not for me personally, however... |
|
I do see overall improvement and I do believe we're better off than we were a year ago.
I fail to see the "logic" that some hold... the thought that things should be markedly better now for all is pretty absurd. It took a hell of a long time to fuck it all up... I bet it takes twice that time to un-fuck it. And if Republicans manage to take back their POWER (not country, power), it will take a hell of a lot longer.

5. No but 'getting better' |
|
I lost my full time job, was unemployed for a year and was taken back on in my old job, except part time now (not full time anymore). Plus I haven't had a COLA, so after inflation I am earning less.

6. Truthfully, we didn't experience the recession |
|
We're very lucky--we had decent jobs and kept them, which enabled us to put our two boys through state colleges without student loans. We're doing well for the moment.

7. I would have voted yes... |

12. No. In fact my industry is looking at the worst winter since 1992. |
|
My local had 500+ members out of work over the last winter, this winter we are looking at over 1,000. Construction has completely dried up. The project I am on right now is wrapping in a couple of months and we're looking at a big layoff this coming friday. I'm hoping not to be a part of it but hard work and dedication only gets you so far. Things could get ugly in the Slayer household.
