Well it appears that the medical industry and some tech jobs (depending where they're located) are impervious to recessions.

And the retarded comments about truck nuts and F250's has long run its course.

The stereotyping of everyone in the O&G industry shows your ignorance.

Funny thing is this is the same for us. Record year last year outside of 2014. Actually surpassed our projections from 2014. What's funny is I'm in O&G. We had a lot of projects still on the dockets last year.

2016 so far is scary slow and more projects are dropping off the radar.


I left O&G when things started getting slow in 2008. I make a good bit less than I could but I don't think I'll ever have to worry about having a job.
