Snapman, U.S. market is just as bad or worse. Not just techs but parts, sales, CSR's and management. Service departments that had 25 techs at the beginning of 2007 are now only carrying 7 or 8. Only one parts person where there used to be 4. Dealerships with only a branch managers and no parts, service, rental or sales managers. I personally have been out of work since January 2009, I worked for about two months this year and was laid off again and that was as a service writer in the automotive field, not enough work volume to support the additional position.

I'm thankful my wife has a good job and my mortgage company has been very understanding.

Fact of the week
The dot-com bubble, a period of large and rapid investments in internet-based companies, peaked in 2000 and saw the Nasdaq Composite index rise by 579%. Then the bubble imploded. As the value of tech stocks plummeted, cash-strapped internet start-ups became worthless and collapsed.
