they are building alot of new stuff around here so i would say construction is up and in the next 10 years they will be started new downtown skyscraper and new downtown baseball stadium. so if u are lookin to get into construction now would be the time.

right now they are finish a new highway overpass with 8 new exits and the are building a huge 3 story benz/caddy dealership up at the mall

If you're gonna move, then you might as well move to TX. Seriously, Dallas, SA, and Houston are all booming in construction.
You'll also not have to worry about the sniffer inspections and snow/rain. It's nice weather all year round.

Let's put it this way. There's a "cold front" coming in. It supposed to get down to the 60's. Brrrrrrrrrr. lol
And the track is open all year round.

Nate, did you ask them something similar to, "well do you think things will pick up anytime soon, and if so, would i get a job offer first before new applicants."

sucks dude. good luck on the job search

That sucks Nate!! Usually they let go of the high priced long termers and keep the low paid newbies.

Keep your chin up kid!
