Received a call today from someone I once worked with. He was the engineering manager for a company at the same time I was VP Sales. He was a dedicated co-worker and a good die casting tooling design engineer.

He left the company 7 years ago to work in the sand casting industry. He became the engineering manager there as well. He left there to work for a magnesium foundry where he was laid off.

He has been out of work for a while and so he called me to see if I knew of a company that was looking for someone with his talents. I hope he finds work soon. I suggested he join my Linkedin Network because there are several diecasting professionals he can network with.

I suspect for some diecasting people, it will get worse before it gets better. I wish all of us diecassting people luck in this new changing economy.
