The construction / develping industry is on its arse due to the fuck ups by the banks. Planners, developers cannot get money to develop and therefore nobody is building. The main bulk of works is by D&B Governemnt work. I.e Hospitals, Schools etc. Now, it wont stay like this forever but I can see it staying like it for another 12months easy. Not all areas in the industry are the same though. I work for a consultants and we have Structural, Civils (Drainage and Transport), Ecology, arcehology, Advanced Design, M&E etc and we (structures) are the quiet ones at the moment. Still enough to keep us busy but nothing more. But thats only us. I know some consultants who are flat on their arses. We have work overseas which is keeping our M&E guys busy. Regarding GIS, well you may get a job, you may not. Have a look on some sites for work, when do you finish by the way?

Ive been in a bar with the gfriend many a time and had a glass of wine

No, my ex does though. I am a Structural Engineer and we have in our consultancy GIS peeps and I know they are busy for now and I know some others who have been laid off due to the way the construction industry has been hit. Thing is with GIS in the construction industry they seem to have long lead in times and a few projects in advance so they dont seem to be hit as quick as us, so who knows.

Thank you sweetie I can't resist them, when I look at them all its like being a little girl in a sweet-shop all over again God I am sad, Ive just LOL'd into the office over this post

Come on Strola!

Yes but along with the dead wood, decent people are loosing their jobs too

In my industry there is a LOT of shite on good money and this has played into some employers hands. As soon as it kicks off again a lot of people will have changed careers and the gash will be back on decent money again

What's your porn name? I may have seen you in a few things. Mingeeater

Im the same Fish marra. I get so wound up when people dont put the same effort in as me etc. At the moment I work with GASH! and its making me ill

Aye true, I really wanted to say fuck off, but I thought look every accusation thrown at me is correct here, I'm not completely out of the woods, there's other stuff hidden. I should be earning 45k+, but I'm earning no where near that, because I cover the North of England and Scotland, and the shitey Midlands. Let me tell you it's fucking dead, whoever says the country is coming out of recession is an idiot, it's getting worse, I speak to senior players from leading construction companies every day, and every single day I speak to 20 people who are laying off, or have just laid off. The banks still aren't releasing funds (apart from in the South), and all the major projects are government funded. So the good thing to come out of my D Day is now I'm working Southern markets where it is actually more buoyant. As you know Stevie I am also in construction, albeit via a consultancy and I know what the industry is like, FUCKED. When a massive consultancy like WYG are on the verge of folding something is wrong. Chin up marra.
