Whole sector shrinking, should I change fields? - 18 weeks in

    Many of the people I know in my field were laid off this year, including me as a mechanic. It has been a long 18 weeks. The postings I see are fewer and ask for more. How did you choose?

    Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

    Talk to people in the field you are considering. Two coffee chats changed my mind about one option.
