“Dale” worked hard in a reasonable construction job refinishing floors. There are a lot of gymnasiums in the Oklahoma City metro area, and his company had contracts with the big one — the University of Oklahoma, as well as a number of others.
But then came the recession, at least in the rest of the country. While numerous articles were touting Oklahoma’s recession-proof miracle economy, orders for refinishing gymnasium floors fell to a trickle. Dale’s company fell on hard times. His boss sold out to a competitor, and Dale suddenly found himself without a job.
