But if you are construction, entertainment, service industry; those are industries not hiring. I think maybe we still need teachers and cops.

my advice to anyone would be to stay put if you are secure....gonna be a bumpy ride everywhere and new people will almost always be on the receiving end of cuts

dealerships arent doing well, so you may have no hours or not be able to sell cars if you are going to be a salesman and who knows with wamu, i've already seen new branches built and then not opening...
sorry to be negative, but good luck to you and congratulations for getting so many interviews...
