You and I should get on mumble, or just come up with some questions for Anthony.

WHen

I'm doing interviews right now

NW mumble tmrw?

copy

Would you prepare some notes and questions you want to ask Anthony next time? I'll do the same

alright

if you're available for a mumble right now we can discuss the interview, job each other's memory, and I can type up a txt doc full of all our questions.

I can't, with family. Let's do it tomorrow

w doug, paul, you and I?

At 9pm tomorrow I'll have to be in another meeting, so I can only stay an hour for our mumble.

Sure, won't take long I'd we all prepare beforehand

:thumbsup:

what make and model is your honda and what's it's mpg? this other guy says he has a honda insight that gets 38mpg which sounds pretty good imo

yours is a civic but what year i mean

Mine is a 2015 Honda Accord, mileage on the highway is around 35 miles per gallon

Honda is a pretty good make I see

yours is 6 years old and still running strong, no issues?

One of the best. Toyota is also known for its reliability

Japanese know how to make cars. I think I've had one major repair

Plus, Honda's and Toyota's are made in the States, I believe. Rednecks driving Ford's think they're supporting America, when Ford's are made in Mexico

I'm thiinking about trading mine in as it is or getting it repaired and then trading it in for something like what you have or what Theo has

either way this car has outlived it's usefulness

Not a bad idea. Make sure you use Carfax or one of those sites to get a good price for yours and one you want to buy

Kelly Blue Book

Volkswagons are nice, but costly repairs

I used that for determining it's value

Nice

KBB is good

When I worked at Automax in Koontown I saw how unreliable Fords are as well

at least these new ones

If I get a truck someday, it'll be a Toyotra

Paul's Tundra(?) has been very reliable for us thus far

Been thinking about learning plumming. I'm going to help a plumber tonight install some water softeners

Tundra or Tacoma, there are some other good models'

How'd you hear about that?

the plumber thing

My current job is to sell softeners, now I'm going to learn the install side of it. See if I like it

You got into that job cuz of you degree, right

Problem is, Mon - Fri 8 to 5, plus some overtime required

No, but it helped. You don't need a degree to learn a trade

off weekends?

You can become an apprentice. Yes weekends off

how's the pay

I'm getting $130 per softener insalled, but if I stay at it I'll get a salary

I've seen you can apply as a helper and get your foot in the door that way but some places also want that piece of toilet paper to prove you can do the job

You can go to trade school, where you will be payed as an apprentice

Some companies will pay you to finish trade school if you sign a contract to work for them afterwards

for real?

never knew that

Good trades are plumbing, electrical work, welding

Mechanic

I tried to get in to that electrician school in Harker Heights and they asked for 17k up front, WTF

Yeah, that's a significant amount. When you get licensed you make triple digits tho

If you get a loan, you have to commit to seeeing it all the way through

iirc my Ma always tells me not to do those loans and my Father also tells me to do them idk

but I'm hoping this job in Austin situation won't fall through. It will suck at first but if it works out I should be able to make good money and be able to help with expenses for the nw and org more often

Loans are dangerous.

You should avoid taking out loans, and to get a good loan you need good credit anyway. You may just need to get a job you can grind and save some money. I worked at that moving company for 1.5 years and saved up a lot

my availability will likely take a massive hit this I reckon. if it does indeed workout. but it can help not only me and my goals but this nw and the org in the long run.

I applied to myMa's company. The company sucks and so does the work, and it will be long ass hours too but I need the money

assuming i even get it that is

As long as you fulfill your roles, that is whats important. You may have to sacrifice free time to work full time and contribute to PF. I have had to do the same, but there's plenty of time to do everything as long as you stay active and motivated

HEB can kiss my ass. I'm so fed up with them not rehiring me. I applied to Planet fitness and another GYm and I still have nothing.

Ever thought of doing construction? Or physical labor? They'll take almost anyone, and you'll make good pay. Hard work though

The Arm

Like your recycle plant job?

That place sucked. Terrible management. I put in so much effort for little in return.

I've refrained from putting in for super physical jobs because of the arm

Look at indeed for job openings. You have a resume right?

I've been looking at indeed

and yes i have a resume

I just need something until this Austin gig worksout

Just send it out as far and wide as you can, or look online for jobs you'd like to do. You may have to just slog through a shitty job to save some money

I've been doing that

on another note, which one of those dates will be mandatory

i intend on making both, but in the scenario I do get a job which one should I make sure I get off

Both are technically mandatory, but I would shoot for the earlier one. The travel distance is slightly less long. Still a long drive though

oy vey, I'm used to that by now

Tbh NW2 is getting the worst deal on distance here hahaha

:sob:

Not all NWs are required to go to both, but we are due to central location in the country

lol

Al-Q-dullulah!

found two jobs "urgently" hiring upwards of 17 bucks in pay for lang ass hours. I got nothing to lose. NEED FOCKEN MOHNEH

Yeah man, you can't escape it

I need to get a response from the Temple guy, ideally meet both him and Anthony the same day.

I want you and Will with me to vet the Temple guy.

I'm trying to work out a good time for Anthony, both our schedules are fucked right now.

It is Christmas time, so it is to be expected

Would you and Will be able to come to Round Rock or Georgetown to vet Anthony on Sunday?

Evening time, around 6 - 7

I guess Will works then right?

I'll ask

Otherwise it'll have to be Mon/Tues, because you can't drive, or Anthony would have to come up to Temple

I think subbing Will for Paul in Anthony's case makes sense. If A passes, Paul will meet him soon enough

*Tue/Wed

I think it's better to vet one at a time than two guys at the same time, if that what you're thinking

I would like to vet both in the same day, not at the same time

still haven't gotten anything from Temple, correct?

the grind will be worth it in the future

Yeah for sure. I'm getting salary now baby
