I'm currently between jobs, so you may see me here a little more than I should be...  Hard to get an interview this close to the holiday weekend...  But I've got a second interview next Wednesday that I'm pretty sure I got the job at....  Scotty was getting ready for the Humongous Striper Friday.... ;)

Post by: Left Handed Model on Jun 29, 2006, 09:22 PM
Me too!! I was gonna say that im in the same situation you were early spring (maybe it was late winter)

Atleast the job market is better down there.  Goood luck fishing.  Cap Ben dont need a mate!

The job market is a little stale right now...  If you don't mind selling meat door to door... ::)   Ben has usually got somebody to help him out,  but he knows I'm around if he needs me....  It's been an up and down spring/early summer for me, lucky I saved when I was making good...  so things aren't that bad, but I gotta get back working pretty quick here.... ;)
