[QUOTE="donna723, post: 203257, member: 1883"] It's scary here too. I think I'll be OK because I work for the State have have enough seniority that the layoffs probably won't get as far as me. My son was a little worried about his job. He works in a place that makes giant steel beams used in commercial construction. They told them though that they would probably be busier than ever because of all the reconstruction from the hurricane damages - they even have some of their beams going into the new baseball stadiums in New York City! Our little town though is pitiful! This is such a small place - only about 8,000 people in the whole county. There was one big factory where half the town worked and a lot of the people from the surrounding counties. They made parts for Ford Motor Co. Now it's shut down, all those jobs sent to [I]Mexico[/I], and we have the highest unemployment rate in the whole state - over 20%! [/QUOTE]
