The economic crisis has now become very personal. Never mind the fact that work is now hurting for donations. Alan came home yesterday to say that he has been demoted as of this coming Monday and is now hourly instead of salary. He was part of the environmental department that tests the soil and finds the history of a property before it's bought. Well, no ones building or buying property so his place of work is suffering. They are now reviewing their situation weekly and making adjustments. But since Alan's new position depends on if they have any actual field work he'll most likely be spending next week at home looking for a job.

I have some money saved and the inheritance from my Aunt June has yet to be touched. So I think we'll be alright for awhile. So does anyone have any work for a masters level geologist?
