Non-Profit Hospitals get funded by the state and that will effect some hospitals but people in general will to the ER with or without a job. So for me, My job in the health care is protected. Maybe my positions as a RT Manager might not be, but I can always go back ans work as a regular therapist.

I checked to make sure they have enough funding for at least 18 months, so yes, I feel quite certain that my job there is safe. Congratulations! Thats awesome!

We lay off 4500+ in about two weeks with 60 day pink slips, and there will probably be more rounds of cutting depending on the economy. The 747-8 Freighter and Intercontinental should keep me busy through at least 2010. From there it is probably on to the 787 program at the end of its run up to full production. Don't make me have'ta Troll ya Bro!

Now saying that I "should" have a job working as a 3d artist in the video game industry but things are awkward right now with recent studios closing and record breaking unemployed/talented artists looking for work. Makes it hard for a recent graduate to get a job over someone who has experience! So if anyone works for a studio who needs new 3d art talent give me a shout!!!

Haha http://www.realtimeworlds.com/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APB_(video_game) We're building out the publishing organization from scratch here, which includes marketing, licensing, operations, network engineering, my CS team (Game/Tech/Billing Support), web development, etc. Our goal is to get APB out in Q4 this year. The studio is located in Dundee, Scotland, and I'll also see some EU support out of London. Get to take my first trip to Scotland and return to London a week from today!
