Mojoe Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 I have one of my guys who is trying to get into carpentry or construction. He is willing to work about anything though. He has his info out there, but just is not getting any call backs. He doesn't have experiance in construction, but he is very reliable and well mannered. He lives in the Polaris area. If you tell him he needs to work all day, he will. He just needs a break. He needs to be at $9.50 an hour or more. He has some college, but is going to be on break for Summer. He can start now. He has finished all his clases. Help me out if you can CR. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geeesammy Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Some dealerships hire in Lube Techs for Summer time due to heavier workloads so the more experienced techs can do the heavier work. If he is mechanically skilled at all he is already qualified. Downside is he would have to buy some tools more than likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Posted April 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 ^^ Thanks. Buying tools might kill it for him right now. He was taking automotive classes at CSCC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geeesammy Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 If he still has student ID Matco and others give a discount. Hell, HF would get him through if he is careful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cstmg8 Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Mojoe, have you thought about the carpenters union? Last I checked they were looking. Let me see if I can scrounge up a number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmrmnhrm Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 What's his MOS? He may be looking for carpentry/construction as just a summer job, but if he's got training, why limit to those when there might be someone out there who can't spend the time training someone because they need a pair of hands Right Fuckin' Now.

Mojoe Posted April 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Mojoe, have you thought about the carpenters union? Last I checked they were looking. Let me see if I can scrounge up a number. He has done all the paperwork and applied, but he need picked up by one to get that started. None of the ten in the area have called him back in the last 6 weeks. Thanks man. What's his MOS? He may be looking for carpentry/construction as just a summer job, but if he's got training, why limit to those when there might be someone out there who can't spend the time training someone because they need a pair of hands Right Fuckin' Now. He is a truck driver, by MOS. And he is pretty open to whatever for work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stangsn95gt Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Honda in marysville is always hiring temps, full time starts you at 13.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2 Sweet Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Lowe's is always hiring this time of year. If he goes for lumber/building materials, chances are he'll learn a lot since there's usually at least one or two guys in building materials with an extensive background in construction/carpentry that he could soak up knowledge from. Easy job, 35 hours a week, starts off around $10/hr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmrmnhrm Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Honda in marysville is always hiring temps, full time starts you at 13.00 Someone's gotta drive the cars off the line and over to the trucks/trains for distribution... hard to beat a person trained by the military to drive stuff around Lowe's is always hiring this time of year.

Zx2guy19 Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 This sounds like a great opportunity for him as well! http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/showthread.php?t=121401 Also, is he good with framing, drywall, window install and siding? If so, I've got a hell of a side job for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Posted April 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 He needs trained, but he is eger to learn. He graduated High School and did our training a heavy truck triver. He is one year into college, and just looking to learn with some hands on training. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Joe, if he's still looking for construction work he can come fill out an application and have him put Art (me) as how he found out about the position. We are hiring all types of field positions for concrete construction.

Mojoe Posted April 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Thanks Archie. I think we might have some leads on things. I will let him know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Versluis Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 When I worked at Aerotek they were always looking for people for general construction jobs. If he can pass a drug test and background check he would be good to go. Pay was always above 10.00/hr as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mseebs Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 If he got his CDL through the military, I could probably get him into my company doing yard work. Basically just moving semi trailers in/out doors and into the lot and so on. He wouldn't be on the road at all, just private lots. Starts at $15/hour I think. Got full time and part time positions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Posted April 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Thanks. I does not have his CLD. He has been through our truck school, but he does not have the miles to qualify for CDL w/ military experiance. We tought him to drive tractor trailer, but it's basically only recognized by us.
