  1. I'm expecting salary dumps in every sector. I'm a prime candidate, senior exec 3 years from retirement eligibility with a salary in the range you would expect for my experience level. Easier to replace for half the cost.
  2. It is eventually going to get a lot worse if something doesn't give soon. I may make it until the end of this month but after that who knows?
  3. Sorry to hear that brother. Rumors are circulating that we will be furloughed in the coming weeks. It's only a matter of time before I will be joining you on the unemployment line.
  4. You know those chairs can move right? And they can wear masks. It not that complicated.
  5. Probably not but I wouldn't use it as a blanket statement without current numbers.
  6. That's not exclusive to the South.
  7. There's corruption all over government. That's just a fact of life sadly. You will see news today about the DOT shortfall blaming it on the Covid-19 outback. That is only a half truth. The real truth is it was circling the bowl long before this outbreak due to mismanagement from the former Secretary and his minions. That you will not hear them say. But I digress. Maybe for once our government will do something for the people instead of their friends.
  8. I agree to an extent, but there's many more professions that benefit from infrastructure spending than construction. Construction is what you see at the end of the process. The vast majority is the white collar workers that make construction possible. That's the part the public doesn't see.
  9. They same infrastructure bill that we've heard about for nearly 4 years now? There's no way the House will let Trump get that through before the election. Not trying to turn this political but if you are being honest with yourself you know it's true.
  10. Who's going to be able to afford it when you're unemployed? If it's part of an infrastructure package sure. But broadband expansion is way down on the list of things this country needs right now.
  11. I'm out of moves if I get rifted. My entire field of work is going belly up. There's nowhere left to go for me and my fellow engineers, especially at my age. It's bad for everyone so I'm not whining about. I worry about my son finding a job when he graduates from college soon.
  12. States are struggling all over financially and a lot were before this outbreak. NC was struggling to pay contactors before this happened, many of which I personally had to cancel contracts with whom I've worked with my entire career. The full financial impact is yet to be realized even if everyone went back to work tomorrow and the virus was fully gone. I'm afraid we haven't seen the worst yet.
  13. We have been working to mitigate the impact of bad policy decisions that date back nearly 2 years. We are out of options at this point. Furloughs and rifts are all they have left to offset the budget crises that was in place before this outback. As soon as we went into lockdown it was only a matter of time before it went full belly up. The unemployment numbers are going to skyrocket soon.
  14. I work in state government. It's been bad financially for nearly a year now. This pandemic is the final nail in the coffin so to speak. I have a conference call tomorrow with Raleigh management and I'm expecting bad news for my employees and myself.
  15. I think I have eaten at this restaurant before. If I get back to Statesville again anytime soon I will drop in and get something for sure. Glad to see you back @Johnny Rockets.
  16. I propose home delivery 24/7.
  17. That's a pretty f*cked up thing to do. It's probably a salary and pension dump if she has one. Her company is hoping they can hire people for the same positions for cheaper salaries. I hope these fed aide packages address situations like this.
  18. They let you leave? I thought we had to stay here so the neighbors aren't frightened by the sight of us? I've been lied to.
  19. By the time that scenario plays out Moton better have picked up enough in that large brain of his to hold it down until a solution is found. Else we fuged.
  20. I would imagine some of the rookies and undrafted guys will have a shot at ST's and more than likely will be required to play ST.
  21. Are you like mentally challenged or something? The probability is good you have no clue how to build a football team and trying to scream nana nana boo boo with incoherent bullshit doesn't help your case.
  22. Of which you obviously have none. I award you no points and may God have mercy on you.
  23. That's what you're going with? How much scouting experience do you have again? I must have missed reading your resume.
