I haven't noticed a recession. I hear about it all the time, but I've yet to actually see it in action.
I think I'll just count myself as lucky and move on....

I'm just about to switich jobs, and have been lucky that most jobs I've been in have been stable and not affected by any economic movement (they didn't go up in wages during the boom, but they're not going down during the bust!)
I do feel sorry for people who do have job that are shakey due to the economic conditions. The fact that many who were responsable for this are insulated against it gets my goat!

Rumors of processing at my office moving to Leeds in the future.
Not a hell of a lot of work to do anyway. big changes in the business. My work is not secure, but ironically, the recession makes it more secure as my employer is strongly linked to the government, who don't want to be seen to be culling jobs at this time.

Sorry to hear it guys. I guess I am fortunate to be near Aberdeen and working in the oi services industry. Even with oil taking a tumble there is a lot of interest in our products especially from Australia.
Hope you guys who are in the sh!t get sorted soon. Saying that we are still cutting back while we can.

Run my own business - fixing PC's hardware/software things.
HUGE drop in requests for service since 9/1/2008. Made more money [3-times as much] during 11/1/2008 - 11/15/2008 than the ENTIRE month of October, 2008 - The month of October, 2008 worst EVER since 1989 for bottom line revenue billed out.

Just started a new job 1 month ago. I'm making twice as much as last job.
My last job was pretty good, but prior to that, work was a train wreck
