The phones at my job aren't ringing, all the people around me say that business has been very slow or coming to a complete halt. Is anyone else experiencing the same kind of situations?

I don't know about the business I work but personally, YES. We are hurting big time. Gas is outrageous and that makes EVERYTHING else go up. Electric higher - food higher - all higher EXCEPT MY PAYCHECK!!!

Well the engineering business is booooooooooooming. My place of work is buuuussssyyy. We're working 60 hour weeks and still swamped!
And check out economic numbers. Our economy is great. The only thing to worry about is inflation going up which is being caused right now by the high gas prices. But they can't be fixed. Thats up to the market demands.

I believe that every year around this time (just after summer starts) things slow down. I do feel that USA is headed deeper though, whether it is slow or fast.

I'm in R&D and we are in a crisis right now because we can't hire people fast enough.
As far as I can see, the economy is roaring right along, high fuel prices be damned.
