It was on the news this last week that Baker Hughes is laying off quite a few people, here in SA.

My dad has been in the industry for a long long time. This is the third or fourth cycle, depending how I count, of boom\bust in the industry in my life time.

Having seen this before I'm not surprised. The big wigs make $$ on a volatile market. The bigger the ups and downs the more cash is made.

One thing I've also seen is when oil is down, the chemistry industry seems to boom a bit. For those looking for work they may want to look there.

We're behind. We might've just hired 2 techs that got laid off from our customers.

We couldn't be busier in automation calibration and construction.
