Job Hunt!
« on: May 03, 2012, 04:29:11 PM »
Just sent a resume to Ruger up in Newport, NH.

Even if I get an interview, I won't be able to accept as a 2-1/2 hour commute is not in the cards.

Just to say I did!

I sent over 50 resumes to gun companies and distributors last week.  Got a nice rejection letter (hand addressed) in the mail from Ruger this week.

Go to the Sig Sauer site as well.  The recruit directly to the main plant in Exeter, NH.

I sent a resume to Crimson Trace last weekend for their Manufacturing Manager opening.  It is within commutable distance too  ;D

Just need to touch base with them and see if I can't entice them into interviewing me...

Don't have the resources to move at the moment.  It will take me a year or better to get my finances back to normal again.  My wifes meds are killing me...

Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

all the best mate, Thanks!

Actually, there is plenty of work being offered but it appears I'm not qualified for most of it.  I guess my 40 years in the workforce has qualified me for nothing...

I'm having a hard time putting out the required applications and resumes to keep my unemployment benefits going at three a week!
