Finally!

Well, After being unemployed for the past 8 months....I am now a part of the working class again and I just got through with my first work week today. I happened to find a machine shop about 20 minutes from my house which was considering hiring a new CAD drafter/designer. I went in and put in an application/resume. They called me back in the first time to talk with the General manager and the other drafter I would be working with. Then I was called back in to talk with the owner. The next day, I got a call from the owners wife telling me to be there Monday at 7am. And just like that, I was no longer unemployed! :)

After my first week, I am really happy with this job, and excited about my future here. I really like the job itself alot better than the last place I was working, as well as the environment and co-workers. This, plus abit better money, fully covered health insurance paid for by the company, and just as good benefits(vacations and such) means a happy me. The company seems like it should be a real interesting job. They deal mainly with coal mining equipment. They completely recondition alot of equipment, as well as building equipment from scratch as well.

Anyways, Just thought I would let you guys know what i've been up to and let you know the good news. Now hopefully I can get back to my interests(which includes shooting). :D

Congrats Bubba! You rocking AutoCad or Microstation?

Labor Day weekend is on if you two want to go up to the shootin' place. :D

I am using AutoCad and Inventor(another AutoDesk program based on 3-D).

I am not quite sure what i've got on my schedule this weekend, but I wouldnt' be opposed if I can swing it. I know tomorrow i'm gonna try to get out on the lake, but other than that...i'm not quite sure. I should know a rough schedule by later this evening, waiting to hear from my dad on possible plans. I'll keep an eye on how it plays out. :)

Word.

Same time? 10 or so? You don't reckon the PD would be closed tomorrow for Labor day or anything would they? Need to stop by there and get my new key.

Congrats Bubba, glad to hear that you found a new job. By the way, how's that M&P working out for you? Oh yeah, I found the other backstrap a couple weeks ago behind my computer.:)

Thanks! Lovin' the M&P! No worries on the backstrap...haha, I emailed S&W after I got it and they sent me one in the mail. :)
