How has the economic downturn affected you ?

[MrF]

How has the recession hit you ?

So far, I still have a job. Got no raise this year, and only 2% last year, but the cost of living must have jumped at least 10% during that time. And the lack of raise wasn't due to poor performance. Nobody got a raise where I work.

Consequently a cut in my "fun budget".

I need my economy to be stimulated -- now !!!!

And is it just me or has there been a recent explosion of ads on CL ?

Not one bit at all last year was the best year in a long time and if the rest of this year is like my January I might retire this year.

Hasn't hit me at all either.

Stay busy. Always improve. You wont worry about any recession with that mentality. People looking for handouts are the ones down in the dumps.
