Thats not architecture, those are tasks incidental to architecture
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And my point is...ARCHITECTS are incidental to architecture! Hence the unemployment rate.
Except there is a little blip called virtually NO CONSTRUCTION going on and no capital to available to get construction going. Architects being out of work are the leading indicator that the construction industry is not coming back soon.
However, I will agree with you in one way ... that there was/is a glut of architects even before the construction bust.
