Hmm... Genie is where I worked until January. Considering how new our group was, I wouldn't be surprised if the layoff eye turns toward my former coworkers soon.

Wow. This is why I'll be encouraging my kid to learn one of the skills that is last to go in a recession. Also don't work for a company that goes down hard in a bust, unless you get compensating bonuses in boom times (e.g. Wall Street workers). Or maybe two skills, one for boom and one for bust.

Repo men are probably the most recession safe jobs. That or prostitutes.
