    if you want to survive the coming recession, it looks as though, DA is suggesting to position yourself in contracts within the above mentioned industries

    Milan,
    It's either that or potato farming. People will always need potatoes.

    I'll stick to the porn industry, where you get sacked for not surfing porn all day at work.

    Folks, I reckons that a beeeskneeees like DA's could be just the barometer needed during these uncertain times.

    If DA's business is doing well then everything is fine.

    If DA's business is doing bad, then yep, the situation is bad.

    How's it looking out there DA ?

    Milan.
    Thanks for asking Milan. To be honest I havent got a clue. we are still in business and I think in the right areas of business.. Oil & Gas, Civil Infrastructure, Wind Turbine and power Industries in general. We are no longer in banking or retail. The porn division is doing fine now despite losing my major client (RIP Paul )

    By the way Marina, how's Troy Tempest, havent seen him for a while?
