[boneaddict]

THIS THREAD IS FOR FOLKS LOOKING FOR WORK AND/OR FOLKS LOOKING TO HIRE OR THAT KNOW OF JOB OPENINGS. NOT A THREAD FOR POSTING HOW THE JOB MARKET STINKS OR THE STATE OF THE ECONOMY.
If you are looking for work, post a brief description of what you do and your location.

If you know of a job opening or are looking to hire someone, post a brief description of what you have to offer.

All other info sharing should be taken off the boards into private phone calls or private messages.

If it is a popular idea, maybe we'll make it a sticky.

Well back to looking for work. After 1yr and 2 months of employment I'm being laid off due to work force reduction. Second time since 2007. Known that I will be back on UI and looking for jobs again sucks, as anybody who has been unemployed or is currently it's a pain in the ASS! Oh well time to move forward...

My background: Customer Services, Telecommunication, Logistic/Dispatch, some Project Management.

Thinking my future with my company may be getting short. Too much to complain about to go into here, but I may criticize myself out the door, if we don't go under first.

No CDL but a perfect record for over 25 years. Have done QA/Planning in Aerospace Finishing, Familiar with Boeing Copies for Plating-Painting.  Not Certified but have driven Forklifts up to the size of 6-8cyl Diesels. Fairly competent with most tools.

Being a Mobile Night Watchman for a company going backwards can't last too much longer.

Really want to stay in the Everett, SnoCo area.

I need a couple people(2) to drive our parts delivery vans. They are Sprinter vans so they're kinda big. You must have a clean driver's license and must be able to handle lifting a little weight. It's an opportunity for a good break into the automotive business. The job is full time, about 7:30am-4:30pm monday through friday and pays around $12 an hour plus benefits. You're pretty much gonna be driving around the Seattle/Eastside/etc area bell to bell so if you don't like driving then this is probably not the role for you.
PM me for details.

I'm starting to wonder why I made the move from the land of giant whitetail in Illinois to Tacoma. I am a heavy equipment operator looking for work.  I haven't had too much success finding a company that is bringing in new people.  Dirt work,Utility work, Asphalt, Demolition,Drainage. Willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done. Getting to the point where I can't afford to pay rent and my passions of stalking critters w/a stick and sting and TRY to training my retriever.  If there is anything out there let me know.
Thanks,
Eric

Curious what it takes to hire off-duty LEOs.

I know that bars or clubs or events sometimes hire off-duty LEOs for security or traffic control, presumably in uniform and with a portable radio to call dispatch if needed.

We may have some land surveying to do in some semi-rough neighborhoods and I am just thinking outside the box about how to protect the equipment and the personnel while we work. Wondering what a reasonable hourly rate would be, and what other conditions apply. Half urban, half rural, mostly King county area.

I suppose I could just walk over to the precinct and ask, but thought I'd ask here first. PM if you can help.
