My Little Brother

Just getting out of high school the door was wide open for my little brother, the economy was really strong in 2006. He had so many options to choose from like, going to work on the rigs like I did and go back to school in a year or two. Get into a trade and get his red seal, or just take it in stride and go where the wind takes him. With the economy so strong he couldn't make a mistake on what he choose. Fast forward to 2010 my little brother had moved out on his own only, to find himself back where he had started in 2006, living at home with no job. He bounce from trade to trade to see what he like but never settled in to one that he really enjoy. I try to help him out with odd ball jobs here and there to make ends meet, but now his friends also find themselves in trouble. With a future so promisng just 3 short years ago, now looks sacrey and unpredictable. The recession is not just about layoffs and job placement its also about breaking someone down from a high point to a very low point, but like I always tell me brother when ever there's a up hill there got to be a downhill.
