Yep, working in commodities is full of cycles, but those can be managed through saving money for the downturns and unemployment payments. But when a commodity simply dies out in a whole region, like lumber in BC and Alberta and coal in the USA, then it's much, much worse, and one has to consider a different career altogether.
Good luck to the brave loggers of Canada.
