Cable Footage or Trench/Strand Footage


Just want to know what's going in the rest of the country. I've been fortunate to be able to contract splice in the same city for the same prime for the past 7 years. I've been getting paid by the foot on cable bearing footage. Recently the cable company as changed to paying footage by strand/trench bearing footage. With todays express runs and back feeds this comes out to be about a 30% price cut. That' on top of a price reduction in January and again in June. What's everyone else getting and are prices dropping all over the country? How long can the hackers keep working for such cheap rates? I use to be able to solely support my family by myself and have my wife doing my office work but now she has to have a real full time job for us to make it.
