I LOVE Musk and his pro-first-amendment ways. X is the future.

So much like the guy above, I've got experience in IT, just finished by degree in business which included a class on project management, completed the CAPM, and have no clue where to go from here for a career that includes "project" in the title. So... where do I go from here? I've got some influencing people type books on the way, but looking for some good directional advice beyond that.

We have two great electrical subs that constantly bail us out of bad situations. The one that specializes in high voltage live work is basically a gift from god.
Where I'm from the economy is going gangbusters and it's incredibly hard to find anyone that wants to work. This is particularly true in the less sexy trades. Drywalling, flooring, systems furniture, things like that. We very regularly have multi-million dollar tenders close with only 1-2 bids, and several of the price fields will be left blank because the GC's couldn't get a sub to submit. Last year we paid $175/h for a drywaller because he knew no one else would do it.
This has opened up a very interesting and stressful avenue of risk - contractors who make so much money that its no longer their main motivator. It's really changed the industry dynamic. Case and point I'm now the one sending them Christmas cards that more or less state "thank you for taking our money".
