    Sorry,…these are tough times,…I hope you get a break soon. I plan to have a garage attached this summer but I have a relative that needs work.

    Ben,
    Hopefully I can give some encouragement. I work with very high end custom homes. We have twice as many design/build agreements in progress than we did last year at this time. Some of these homes won’t break ground for at least another year. But if people can get past all the doom and gloom that is broadcasted every day in the news, one can see how strong the mid-west is. We don’t experience the extrememe highs and lows like the east and west coasts do. more than 80% of the extreme cases we hear about are in 4 states. That means 92% of the country is well above the doom and gloom.
    When I was still framing, I made an agreement with the guys that I worked for allowing me to take side jobs when things got slow. I picked up a lot of additions, remodels, decks,… Chin up and keep hammer’n. Things will work out.

    I wish you the best of luck!! I’m in a similar boat. I know our company is barely surviving. I’m told our payroll is secure, but some “stay with us” incentive that was once very promising is now in jeopardy. It’s quite scary to think about how I would support my family without my job.

    I feel for you on the weak market. I have been laid-off of 2 jobs in under 6 months due to the economy.
    I received word that the job I am currently laid-off from, is laying off an additional 30 people on top of the 37 already laid-off. So, I am also going to be in the market for a new job again in the near future

    Nope. I have all your numbers and know where you live.
