Last week, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said the recession is “very likely over.” He qualified his statement by saying the economy is still fragile and the recovery may be a slow one.
Bob Sabacky’s job as manager at Russ’s Market was downsized from full time to part time. Besides the loss of work hours, he said, the recession has changed his normal routine.
“I’m walking and taking the bus a lot more,” Sabacky said.

“I just watch the gas prices go up and down,” Hotory said.
