What residents are saying about today’s issues
Are you worried about the current downturn in the oil and gas industry?
HOLLY VERDIN
Houma
I’m concerned. A lot of the jobs that used to be stable now aren’t. That’s bad for our area.
WARREN ADAMS
Houma
It always comes back up. It’s easy for me to say because I am retired. But I’d tell a young worker to be at ease because it will come back.
SHAUNDRICA WILLIAMS
Gray
I’m worried. My husband’s job may or may not be there tomorrow with all these cuts.
PAM STACEY
Houma
I think we all are looking at it with caution. Oil and gas is our area’s backbone. We need it to be strong.
RACHELLE WILLIAMS
Houma
I am not involved in it, but I do know it affects me. Everyone makes more money when business is booming, so I am worried.
TIMMY ADKINS
Thibodaux
I am not as concerned as I normally am. I think the tension will go away and things will find their way back to normal.
