I’m a software engineer, and there seems to be plenty of work in my field for guys with software training and experience.

Qualcomm is laying off 1500 people today. My boss is scooping up whatever qualified talent we can find from the carnage. Skilled candidates with no need for relocation expenses. Meanwhile, my wife is lamenting the turnover in her police/fire/EMS dispatch office. It's very hard to find applicants with a clean record and the aptitude to do the job.
