    Anyone noticed there might just be more new jobs being announced these days than job losses? I remember this from the early 90′s, even if I was just a young lad – time to start looking at the positives and hope this trend continues so we can forget about this recession

    If only there were more counties in ireland were jobs could be announced. That would be fantastic. I wonder if there’s going to be a new government initiative to announce some new counties soon. Fingers crossed…
