Seems like my run of good luck has come to an end. 2 days after coming back from confurgence I rock upto work and find that theres nothing for me to do.

From what my employer said it's not because of my performance either, there is genuinely a construction slowdown and for a small business, they can't afford to have me sitting idle. God knows when the industry will pick up again, they say it maybe anywhere between 2 weeks to 2 months and I should look for other work in the meantime. Great.

Seems this ordeal caught my employers off gaurd as well, they had a whole slew of projects lined up after chrismas and every one of them has been put on hold by the developer which can only be the result of an economy going back into recession.

Fingers crossed that is not the case.
