Corporate IT and IT security are completely separate. You don’t want the guy tasked with taking support calls to reset passwords and telling people to reboot your laptop configuring your firewalls and switches. We also have OIT and a stand alone cyber department under that. And attached to them is a compliance group.

Police harassment of the citizenry.

Always busy. The shake machines are always down because of improper cleaning and maintenance. They are very sensitive and any little thing like not putting enough lubricant on a moving part just cause the machine to go down. Very rarely is it a serious problem like a bad compressor etc. They just half arse clean it and throw it together. The machine I fixed today looked like it hadn't been cleaned in two months. I have seen some shite. I can work as many hours as I want. Multiple coolers, freezers and mccafe machines etc to work on in north Alabama.

This depends. For folks are actually cybersecurity baws, they're fine. Especially with the massive increase in telework. For the sales guys, auditors, and other wannabees that put "cybersecurity expert" on their linkedin profiles, not so much.
Spot on.

Earthmoving construction has kept on humming in north and central Alabama, coal mining and quarrying still going as well. Which mining was hurting before the Wuhan virus anyway. Smaller machines like compact track loaders and mini-excavators are selling but big iron like large dozers and rock trucks have slowed. Generator business is off due to lack of events I believe.

i work for a very large, very mature IT organization and cybersec is still under the IT umbrella.
Your org's regulator isn't going to let that fly much longer.

It's not though. Plenty of government functions have been shutdown for going on two months now.
Still steadier than most of the private industry.

Is your entire organization IT? I'm talking the big financial, healthcare, etc. companies. There is a clear delineation between cybersecurity and IT, and there are a myriad of reasons for this...which is why it's considered best practice.
No, it’s a Fortune Top 25 company. Employs 4k IT employees.

Well, I know for a fact that at Check-In2-Cash, Roto-Rooter, and Cutco, IT and cybersecurity are in the same department. Can't speak for other, less prestigious organizations.

Golf courses in my area were crushing it in March and April. Never seen them so busy. Appears to have tapered a bit since May 1.

Telecom is treating me well. Gotta hook up all them stay-at-home folks. Hitting 50ish hours every week, with no end in sight.
Oh, and now we’ve got Lily back.

I don’t know what an operator is, but if you work for HCA, and they are cutting positions, whatever.
I am in nursing leadership. Our OR’s were practically shut down, and ER volume cut probably 50% for a few weeks, but there was enough other work to spread folks around. The surgery department is blowing and going again, and ED volume is coming back.

The toilet paper and hand wipes industries are absolutely killing it.
