Oh wow!
I can say one thing IT SUCKS!
Ja jivy v NY, ogromnij shat, centr mirovoj ekonomiki i t.d. t.p. No resession is heating us strongly here.
My friend works as a bookkeeper. She used to work for advertising firm. They are downsizing now and she is officially out of work.
My other friend is an accountant, people who own small businesses cannot survive. Most of them are in the pocess of closing thier companies. Real Estate companies are doing horribly......
It's pretty bad now, that's all I can say....
