It is time to turn the calendar to a new year and while we in the construction industry don’t have a lot to complain about, we all can say farewell to 2021 with a certain sense of relief.

We can celebrate the end of another year of government stumbling through a never-ending battle with the COVID-19 virus which seems capable of outguessing our battle-weary virologists at every turn. There are only 24 letters in the Greek alphabet that the good doctors use to keep track of virus variants and we’re already down to Omicron, the 15th letter.
