Laid off and looking for work?
The governor is spending $10.5 million for training for construction workers and others who have been laid off because of the downturn in the housing market. “The housing slump has put many skilled Californians out of work – such as carpenters, steel workers and cement workers," Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said in a prepared statement. " But we can continue to use their talents to rebuild our schools, fix our levees and build more freeways. By investing in our infrastructure, we are creating jobs and ensuring California remains competitive in a global economy.” So that's the help for construction workers. How are you dealing with the downturn? — Christine Peterson 0 comments from 0 users
