    As I have said before, my company keeps on hiring. Six new people this week. Two salaried and 4 hourly. You should see their credentials - very good. They'll be out of here if the economy really heats up. On the other hand, my company pays well and has great benefits and still provides a generous match on the 401k as well as a 3% EDRP which is 100% vested as soon as it is posted.

    The jobs will come. This earnings period is going to help. Just like I told Big Ben.
