Structural Designer. I design wood floor and roof trusses as well as structural beams. What's ironic was about 5 years ago companies would "steal" each other's employees. That is why we had ridicoulously large salaries. Then when the home market went to shit, we were laid off by the hundreds. This time 3 years ago, our company had 111 designers in the state of Florida. Now they have 2 full time designers and 3 estimators.

Aircraft Mechanic and Pilot (although I'm not flying in the current economy). Starting to get concerned, Learjets are very much a luxury item. Although I work on every thing from Cessnas to Gulfstreams. My wife works as a CVICU nurse for a Heart Institute.

I'm a retail manager for a major retail optical chain. It pays me well, I have great job stability and 4 wks paid vacation. I'm honestly not trying to rub it in, but there are good companies out there that are weathering the storm.

No. You work in a recession proof business.

Like I said we supply parts so that ships can be built. One ship that we helped on the USNS Lewis and Clark is now a pirate hunting ship. Topside now they have a landing pad for helicops, and down below they now house prisoners.
Just thought it was cool and wanted to share. |

I work for fedex as a driver, I only mainly do one stop which has anywhere between 100-600 packages a day, I put them on pallets shrinkwrap them and pallet jack them out of the truck. I sometimes get more work if there is late freight and I have a full route on Saturday. I get around 25-30 hours a week. As soon as I get my class B license which I was sent to spend a week in a hotel room in Ontario food/drinks/travel all paid for, I will be getting a few more hours a day, which will be nice so I don't have to look for another job. I do alright but I am trying to pay off many bills at the same time, and it is making very small dents each month. I live for the day when I am out of debt, can go back to buying whatever I want and finally get a new car.
