Well, things don't look good. I work for the government, and I'm not permanent, and that doesn't bode well. The 2012 Budget was released recently, and my employer is not exempt from the cuts. They have to cut a ton, in fact. It's fucked up, because this government's mandate would suggested that not cutting my area of work would be in its best interest.
If I'm not out this year, I imagine it will be soon. Unless I get a permanent job, but we've also got hiring freezes now... it's a clusterfuck. In fact, today I got two emails informing me that the competitions I had applied to are now cancelled. And I applied for those months ago.
It makes me mad, because I'm young, educated, and I want to work. I'm not some old guy making six-figures who is just coasting until retirement. I have barely paid off my student loans and I'm facing unemployment again.
