theres kinda nothing to do. everything is wet as shit.. no beach to go lay on... hmm... day drinking? meh. i just went to the grocery store and bought some greek yogurt... not sure what the fuss is all about with that stuff. basketball courts will probably dry out in a few hours... i hope... actually excited to start this job. will be good to be back in the city. im glad you all read this because i know youre stuck in an office and i just did that for a year and quite honestly it is not for me. the days go so much longer sitting down |

Ike are these job interviews mere fantasies or are your skills really in high demand? I applaud you if you have such robust job prospects. |

im a long time electrician with management history and i communicate well... i dont know about high demand but i do have more skills than most applicants from what im regularly told. it must be true because the one guy offered me $40k no bennies and i played hardball until he caved to $50k. i was just being honest though, i wasnt excited about a $40k job if i had to pay for all the benefits. i know in illinois i would get at least $60k but this isnt illinois.. $50k really is a good wage especially starting at a new place. im also not just a construction electrician, but all inclusive electronics guy... i go component level and even design simple circuits when i need something that you cant buy off the shelf. thats why im probably going to take this industrial maintenance position because it will involve a lot of ingenuity... they can buy whatever parts they need but a lot of times its not cost effective to wait a week to get them in, so i will need to cobble whatever i can to get the machines working again. should be fun honestly, and i really did like these guys. theyre real laid back and we talked for a couple hours about lots of stuff outside of work... i think its going to be a great fit. |

i think im at least getting an interview. i contacted them initially with my resume and cover letter, and they directed me to the full application and wanted me to fill it out by monday. this would be a tough decision if they offer me a job, i would have 3 jobs all offering similar wages and similar long term outlooks. the more i keep thinking about it the harder the decision is becoming. |
