Salty Dog,
Thanks for your thoughts on this subject. While I tread in the pool, I certainly would love to get that call but I guess I would rather be patient (OK, maybe I will have to be REALLY patient), than get hired and furloughed. I have been down the furlough road before and would rather not walk it again.
In this business, I realize that sometimes it is anyone's guess how things will unfold, but I appreciate your insights, it helps me get a better understanding of all of the factors involved.
