Finally Got a job

I finally found a job, that pays decent money.
I'll be working for a train de-railment clean up company in Hudson WI. Hulcher
Bluntedelvis knows all about it. They may still be hiring, if you have a class A you can start out at about 60k a year. Just to let you all know for those of you that may be looking for work seeing how hard it is to find a job in this market right now.

Re: Finally Got a job

Good job! just out of curiosity, how often does a train derailment happen that would warrant steady full time work?

I dunno what crew I'll be on I hope to get on with a couple of buddies that work there, their crew was up on that last derailment up by hibbing you were on and you had to build that two mile road in the swamp. We'll see what happens I hope I can deal with the hours and being on call 24/7 but i'm sure after I see a few of those 100 hour pay checks I'll know what to do.

Re: Finally Got a job

Sounds like you found a good job.



I'm looking at picking up a second job or maybe a job to replace my current one. I'm barely making enough to feed my silly ass and make my car payments and insurance and cell phone payments. I couldn't even afford to put insurance back on the Laser if I wanted...

Re: Finally Got a job

Sounds like a lot of work for a decent amount of money. I recently put myself in the the same situation, I am in Wisconsin monday through friday making some nice money but the job is demanding, very dirty, and a lot of physical labor.

Who would have thought semi tractors would be extremely dirty with only 30-40k on them?

I cant imagine cleaning up after a derailment thought, I am sure it makes my job look like a walk in the park.

Re: Finally Got a job

I get to kiss my social life away as of monday... I'm starting the 23rd and I'll be on call 24/7 from here on out I'm just not so excited anymore. They said show up with steel toe boots and a bag with 5 days worth of clothes in it. That just never sounds good.

No i've never heard of Chubby's North place. I live in hammond. Shooters the beer is a bit expensive but the strippers are hot and the lap dances are second to none. Not the same caliber women as the vue but your money goes a HELL of alot farther.

I'm located in Abbotsford which is kind of in the middle of E. Claire & Wausau, closer to Wausau. Funny you speak of Chubby's. That's a couple miles west of Thorp. It's a new place. It's packed almost every night. I'm about 20 minutes from there. My brothers been in there. Really hot woman I guess. Went by there Friday and there were 4 protestors out by the highway with signs. Like that's gonna do anything.
