Im heading out to interview for a construction job that sounds like something i could definalty live with. Concrete commercial skyscraper construction. Office buildings to be laymen. With pay at $17.85 starting, with raises every six months or so for added training they provide it sounds like an all around good deal.
And im off.

concrete works? Thats probably the hardest thing you can do, next to roofing and bricklaying. It will do a number on my back, so be aware of what you are getting yourself into..
then again you will probably be working with a union that provides benefits etc. I worked non-union.

Got it. Most un-eventful interview ever. We had talked over the phone prior and i had a good feeling i was pretty much hired. Though being unsure i still treated it as an interview and went in with full regalia, tie and all. Walk in im here too John Doe, "around the corner". Walk over hi John, "ah yes you must be MiscGuy". "Im going to have Jimmy over there type up a letter introducing you to the union then we'll walk over and get you going". "Sounds good".
So as were walking to the union hall a few blocks away were talking and my new boss says, "just a suggestion, you may want to lose the tie". To which i replied, "I had hoped someone would say that". Considering i felt really overdressed as we walked up to the site i will be working at and he started to go into details. Mind you its raining and the foundation is just a mud pit. We then hit the Union hall and i get some instructions and meet a guy. Then thats it. We walked back to the office where we parted company.
I go back the 10th for some Union stuff, then i "start" the 16th. I have to go to a training camp for a week on the 23rd where they feed us and shit, kinda like a mini boot camp for construction (flash backs here i come). Then i'll actually hit the site on the 30th after doing paper work and such.
Thanks for the well wishes, though it may seem they wernt needed with my un-matchable charm and swagger. Well that and the company needs people seeing how there backlogged on there number of jobs.

Good job in getting the job. rock:
Yeah, the labor shortage is all over the US/Canada, because of the "baby boomer" generation retiring and all. I know a ton of people in construction. Try not to fuck up your back beer:
