Hello anybody around the central Texas area looking for an employee. The business that i worked for went belly up about 3 mos ago, needless to say I have been unemployed since then. I am a certified fireman and I am testing at different depts., but have not had any takers yet. I was a carpenter at my last job. I can fight fire, run heavy equipment, and I am a pretty good carpenter. If any of you are looking for someone or know a company who is please let me know. I have put in applications everywhere, I even tried convienece stores and fast food. I am ready and willing to work . Thank you

Arlington has great civil jobs. Police is top notch, Fire is outstanding, and plenty of overtime opportunities.

I work for National Oilwell Varco in the IMO division. They are hiring anybody with a willingness to put in long hours, a good driving record, and the want to make a lot of money. Our shop here in Odessa as well as Alice and Victoria are all hiring field service techs.

I remember someone posting a link that Larue Tactical was looking for people as well. Sales representatives, if you don't do the CNC thing.

Not sure how current that information is though.

Expect 2 week paychecks of $4k+. It is oilfield though and will go bust sometime though.
