I just lost my full time job again today. The company went out of business last night, at least I got a decent severance package :D I won't have to worry about that crappy ass drive either! I will have some time on my hands so I'll get the shop fired up more. So, if anyone knows of a management job, especially in the service area, let me know!

I should be able to make it to some more gatherings now too, which will be nice.

Yeah, we had some warning. About 4 weeks ago we basically shut off payments to anyone. We have some pissed off retailers (Menards, Best Buy, Circuit City, Sams Club) and some REALLY pissed off manufacturers :D Not to mention the service center, service network and parts distributor I managed. They tried to keep me in another branch of the company, but there just wasn't enough to keep me busy.

Life will go on, but it happens at a really bad time. I am getting married in 5 weeks and have 2 houses.

That sucks dude, but I know you'll make it out okay. You have any sort of engineering background? I know we are or were looking for a manufacturing engineer.

Sorry to hear. Hopefully the shop will take off and keep you busy.

Sorry to hear. Did you ever get that Intake manifold design created?

The design has been created for some time, it's the actual product that is taking some time :D Depending on how long it takes to find a new job, that may actually come to fruition soon.
