I suppose it is because there was no boom here, it's just "normal" so it just continues like that.

My OH just phoned one drywall company, explained the whole LMO situation, went in and met the directors and was hired on the spot. Just get on the phone and if your coming on a reccie go into the offices and meet people.

Thanks again AmyDavid. "Normal would be great". Work situation here in construction is dire. OH has work at the moment but running out fast, but we dont want to jump out of the frying pan into the fire.
My OH is a carpenter but has done a bit of drywalling too.
