I'm another Fed civil servant, buying and managing property, lands, and rights of way for the Dept of the Interior. 30 years there plus time-out for a few years doing the same for a big utility company, Army time, etc. I'm intrigued by all the RR folks who responded; always loved trains, always thought working for the RR would be cool! Now I know where to go for tips on getting a job! Would love to put your pic up in the garage, but wife wouldn't like and can't afford another divorce [:)
 
Last 4.5 years I was active duty Army. M1A2 Abrams Armor Crew member. Sgt E-5.

Been out for 5 months, and I'm still collecting unemployment...lame...I know...wish I had a job..still don't know what I want to do...maybe be a CHP..
 
Industrial Electrician/Licensed Electrical contractor - semi retired. (stopped for a while to smell the roses). Wife and I bought a 100 year old house to restore. You think old cars are expensive to restore? Ha!!
 
Used to be a crane operator, then became an industrial and commercial superintendent, then a project manager. No work for 14 months. Don't know what is next, maybe take 1/2 pay, and use my statewide inspector license and find a government job.

To all the other people laid off: stop and think. If you have brains to figure out how to restore, and keep all this old, tired Mopar stuff on the road: we can get a job. We are smarter than the chebby guys. 8)

Good luck to everybody.
