Job winners and losers in hard times

[LICKING COUNTY FAN]

Hospitals, schools and the assembly line at an airplane factory look like pretty good places to be with a recession looming and unemployment rising. Construction workers, real estate agents and auto workers aren't expected to fare as well.

The startling news that the economy lost 80,000 jobs last month and nearly a quarter-million over the last three months is the starkest signal yet that the country has probably fallen into a recession, with things on the job front expected to get worse.

real estate agents that work hard will be winners in this climate. Like anything else, work hard and you make the jack.
