Squidley Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share #48 Posted January 21, 2010 Wanted to post an update.... Went to Blanco yesterday and had the interview, interesting place and I would have loved to be in Blanco. $12 hr was the starting wage I had to laugh to myself as this is for a skilled position dealing with fabrication and sheet metal bending. He mentioned to me about a high turnover rate, and I thought to myself DUH! folks can make more than that working at Walmarts. Needless to say I didn't accept the job, at 43 years old I'm not going to drop my wage standards with 25 years of experience to $12 hr. Unfortunately it is a employers market right now and there isn't very much that I can do about that. So onward to the next prospect and either I'll find work or die trying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingy Posted January 21, 2010 Share #49 Posted January 21, 2010 Sorry Squidley. Same thing as around here, they want to pay entry level wages for decades of experience. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riderduke Posted January 21, 2010 Share #50 Posted January 21, 2010 $12.00/hr....... Heck I pay that for 18/yo unskilled laborers just to clean-up the jobsite, be a gofer and other misc tasks. I don't blame you for not wanting to take it. There is a job with your name on it out there. You just gotta find it! And i know you will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
