   Great News here...A Company I have done work for has called upon me to come back to them on a Full-Time basis in Electrical.  I accepted. (Of course) There is a job to be done locally and it is close to the house.
   
   I am a self-employed/contractor electrician, but with this really bad and slow economy work has been bad slow. I have got by, but this opportunity opened up and I have decided to take it...for now.  Once the economy picks back up I will restart my own business back up and try to keep both going.
   
   Of course it will cut into the time I have spent on HP, but I will still be here also. Just not as much.
   
   Just thought I would share some good news with everybody on Hubpages!!!

         I hear you!!! I do feel lucky since I get called back, but another company close by just laid off their entire crew. 
         I figure that new work we will see coming will be more from the Medical industry. The one I just started was an expansion for medical and will next start a job on a military area.

            I hope it does pick up, I've been hearing about more layoffs in the field during the past couple months from people I know. But only time will tell!

      I am sure it will. The economy didn't collapse as fast as other places...but it finally did last summer. There are small signs of a slow upturn.

    Thanks Izzy and Wren.
    I read about the deaths also. They were east of Arkansas in Mississippi that I read about. Tornadoes are killers at times.
