You know what? When it's good, it's great. When it's bad, it's awful. Been in the biz 12years, started as an installer, now am maint. (sweep mitigation, soon hope to do fiber.) Have not seen it this bad for me since 2000. Been steady for past 7 yrs. till 2008. Listen guys, if ya can get out and keep yer head above, and your families fed, God bless. Me I'm in for life. I may be slow now, but my wife and kids eat everyday and sleep in a warm bed at night. I'm grateful for that. For those in it like me, keep yer head up. Better days will come.
