    Well good luck on finding the pot o' gold man.

    Well, at least it is not just my area then.

    What areas do you all work in?

    I'm looking even though I'm in a role (coming up for renewal/binning) and it's exceptionally quiet. I'd go as far as saying it's quieter now than it was in December
