No, and I would be surprised if so many here were truthfully employed as architects, unless you mean you're loosely "self-employed" with a barely existent business where you are the only employee and have an annual salary of anywhere from $0 to $5.

How many yeses can you find? First one with the correct answer wins omnipotence and omniscience.
I'd find interesting to know who lost his job and found another one. That's the tricky question for me. After all there are more architects who kept their job that the ones who lost it. The big issue is whenever you lose your job... how the hell you find a new one.
I lost my job in Feb '09 and found a new one in Apr '09 but... it is 5.000 miles away from my previous one and in another continent. A temporary solution though.
Are You Employed?
A simple yes or no will work, (yes*), (no*)
This is a dubiously scientific poll of the Archinect community.
