Yeah it can get better, is the job in Michigan, do they have another opening?

Sigh I would work for 13 an hour within a 45 minute drive of Flint Michigan

Well, I did forget to mention the 1 hour commute VS my 30 mins now, but I found a Shuttle service that drops right at the front door of work for $110.00 a month, which is about what I pay in gas now. So now more fucking tired, milage, tickets and oil changes.


Now I can finally afford to breed! l33t!

That's Awesome bud. What are you going to be doing? I am getting tired of this contracting shit myself and will be doing the resume thing this month.

Same thing I've done for the last 10 years... Im in prepress. That is making files from everyone the planet actually print to xerox, film, plates and digital presses. I would make like 30 an hour if I could move to a big city (San Fran, San Diego etc) but I'm buying a nice little 3 bedroom house that I can't give up till it's payed off.

Grats, nothing like a good raise to lift the spirits. I took my best friend/roommate out once and got him toasted after he got a raise, his girlfriend was pissed at me cause he was puking in the front yard. I just laughed, he just laughed....damn good stuff, man I miss those days.

are you working in the auto industry?

if you only make $13 an hour, you're getting fucked unless your a temp worker through a contracting house (they generally take 45%+ of the wages they earn for contracts)

i work in saginaw as a student for delphi and i get $19/hr
