| ________________________________________ [Feb 16,2009 7:37pm - josh_hates_you ""] im a welder/fabricator/machinist. we are anticipating layoffs this week. but then again im an awesome welder only been there a few years. non union and i get paid for shit. its the guys with 20 or more years that suck at welding and make 25+ that are shitting themselves in fear of losing their jobs. do you have your own shop? i want to make something that i could make at work but they wont let me. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 17,2009 5:03pm - Blackoutnli ""] No. I started in local 7. This job was with a huge national service center company working with grating and perforated sheet metal. Where you at? |

| ________________________________________ [Feb 17,2009 6:16pm - josh_hates_you ""] currently wright line in worcester. shitty factory job full of hacks. i work in the custom welding department (re. the only 3 guys in the building that can really weld) we make "technical office furniture" and "data center environments". fancy desks and server towers. boring. |
| __________________________________________ [Feb 18,2009 10:11am - metal_church101 ""] Damn Rick, Sorry to hear about that. Looks like you'll have to go back to male prostitution again in the mean time. I hear there a high demand for that.\\:whipper: |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 18,2009 10:15am - dreadkill ""] that sucks, rick. hopefully you'll get back to work somewhere soon. |
| __________________________________________________ [Feb 18,2009 10:20am - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] I kinda need something made, but I'm not sure if it falls into your line of work. Also, I think maybe it could be made out of plastic. It's a logo for my amp. |
| _________________________________________ [Feb 18,2009 10:37am - DestroyYouAlot ""] And totally not a bong. |
| _________________________________ [Feb 18,2009 10:44am - xmikex ""] Good luck dude. This sucks. |
| __________________________________ [Feb 18,2009 10:59am - sxealex ""] that blows... start a private business there is always demand for welding. |
| ________________________________ [Feb 18,2009 11:00am - dftg ""] I got laid off in December. I just started a shitty restaurant job last night because it's all I've been able to get. |

| ______________________________________ [Feb 18,2009 6:36pm - BlackoutRick ""] Appreciate the kind words. Haha, Matt. Got an interview tomorrow for a job in Reading. Josh, you guys do TIG? |
| ______________________________ [Feb 18,2009 8:31pm - Lamp ""] I'm laid off, but I am SUPPOSED to be getting my job back at the beginning of April when business picks up. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 19,2009 7:36am - BlackoutRick ""] So you're doing nothing till then? Hopefully you can deliver pizzas or something to fill the time,right? |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 19,2009 7:37am - BlackoutRick ""] Wish me luck today. |
| _________________________________________ [Feb 19,2009 8:49am - metal_church101 ""] Where are you applying at today? |
| ________________________________________ [Feb 19,2009 3:28pm - josh_hates_you ""] My department is the only one that does any TIG welding at my work. A few odd jobs made out of stainless and all of the fixtures the tool room makes are aluminum so we have to weld those too. I had nothing to weld today so I bent pieces for file cabinets all day. lame. |
