Right on mate, more people would be employed if they took that attitude.

Jeez, Louise. They keep stringing you along. I'm sure you'll get it, but man that sucks.

yeah it is sorta painful. i'm not sure which is longer.....the time it took to at least get a job back in engineering or the wait time to start this job. seems like an eternity. but i am well versed in waiting that's for sure.

Sorry to hear that man. The email sounds vague. I would ask them to clarify and see if you can get some round about dates....

well, i just got off the phone with ZA and then sent an email to the hiring engineer. still waiting to find out if the firm got the contract or not. in the convo i had with ZA i asked him if he needs a wireman or someone to do panel checkouts. he said he could use me but the position doesn;t pay what engineering does. i said it didn;t matter, it;s a job and it;s money. we are going to talk about it tomorrow. that job is contingent on the engineering job and whether or not they got the contract. in fact, the engineers from the firm are going to ZA;s shop tomorrow to check out some panels he;s been building for them. so we;ll see........

oh and either way, getting back into whatever form of engineering is a plus. ZA;s shop is clear across town as well. brittmoore and the W. beltway off of I-10. not that any of you know where that is....but to put it in retrospect.....

Damn, you live all the way down there? Half of your paycheck will go into gas money. And Clod's right, you're gonna be in major traffic, both on 45 and I-10. By the way, (not an invitation to stalkers) I live right there in Spring Valley.
