Any jobs out there?

[T-Paw]

Hey guys I'm wondering if any of you work in the constuction field. Particularly Boilermakers, Ironworkers, Industrial Safety and such.

 

I was employed as a Safety Rep using my Paramedic/people skills to keep workers safe when I was was lucky (or not) enough to be hired as a Directional Driller. Then after a few months the company decided to lay of 650 at one time.

 

I am also a Boilermaker and have my book. So, if anyone knows of anything going on let me know.

 

Thanks

There is billions of dollars of construction going on at Ft. Sam Houston, here in San Antonio. I gotta believe that they will need safety-types. Wishing you the best.

there is a good bit of oil and gas drilling and pipeline work going on in Yazoo county right now.

Right now, TVA is not hiring for any of those positions, BUT there are several contractors who do our pipefitting and such. If you're a Boilermaker, then contact your Union to see what we have available.

 

 

I am a TVA Steam plant operator.

Actually we are so short of workers here that the province and 2 major cities here have polled together to set up a large presence in Toronto for the next few days in hopes of attracting some workers out here. Our economy is still growing and had a surplus in the provincial budget last month. Stats Canada was still projecting up to 2 % growth this year after over 6% last year.

If you need more info drop me a message and Ill try to help out where I can.

 

Heres a news article about it http://www.newstalk980.com/story/20090331/14244

I see you are in Mississippi. So, this may be further than you want to travel. But if push comes to shove....

As a Boilermaker you could try the 555 out of Winnipeg Manitoba, or the 146 out of Edmonton Alberta and see if they are acepting travel cards.
