Good luck Max!
I had an interview today and another one on Wednesday for a different position both of which in the Sourcing department of FMC (working there as a Temporary employee right now)
Hopefully we'll both start next month being well paid.

What did he say?

Looks like a good way to set fence posts. Wet the ground, turn until upright and then pour the concrete.

Well 2 interviews done now just waiting to see if they want another interview for at least one of the positions.
BTW, I like that tractor idea, wonder if it would work on a dually truck.

Has anyone been watching the BP live ROV on the internet? Where's Capitan Nemo when you need him? No, it's not funny.

Good job Matt. I did not get a job but I now have about 25 HR managers contact info to start heckling. The American Wind Energy Association show in Dallas was absolutely AMAZING. I am hooked and will be back year after year, next year in Anaheim, CA...

This is me standing in front of a GE 2.5 HUB.

Thanx RJ, I had to look all proper to try to land that big job. I have a couple great leads and two of the HR managers after reading my name tag remember that I submitted resumes to them so that is a GREAT sign my resume was not just tossed in a pile.

Wow, Max - you look like a high-powered business executive... maybe the HR types just couldn't picture you in climbing gear?

Max, that hub spins with the blades, right? So no floor or ceiling?
Assume the light bulbs are not part of the final install?
