Hankie, that memo you cited is 8.5 years old.
Are you regressing backwards too?
Be careful you don't bump into Johnny in your race to the past.


Refresh my memory. What memo?


The 2005 unemployment report

At that time our unemployment for the construction trades was half of
one percent in SW Florida and anyone could call themselves a
construction worker (right to work)



Due primarily to rebuilding efforts following three hurricanes in a
little over a year. Anyone with a pickup truck and a hammer became
"construction workers."
