Work

Post by temporal1 »

This thread is a about work.
Looking for work, needing help, education/certifications for work ..

MD had a category on Occupations (?) ..
it was not used often, but, when it was, there were some positive outcomes. :D

Most or all of this drama, humiliation, wasted taxpayer money could be spared -
with even modest attempt at presenting balanced facts from the start.

Yesterday ..
i was able to visit 2 places looking for part-time work! 8-)
what a lift it was for my spirits!

i had not seen anything realistic in the weeks since i returned from helping my family .. then, 2 possibilities came up at once.

not offered a job, but i was able to speak with a manager at one, the owner at the other.
neither told me "no" and threw me out! :D
i should hear from them after Thanksgiving.

one was a parts driver for a car dealership, the other was customer service for a small pack+ship company. neither requires previous experience, neither described heavy lifting.

the manager at the car dealership asked if i would be interested in driving cars from one location to another? i've heard of this, i'm interested, i told him i would like to know more. he said, if i were hired as the parts driver, i would do this occasionally (not long distances.) .. and, they have some who do only this as part time work. that's hopeful!

i asked my auto repair shop folks if they knew anything about this job, they said they knew of different retired people who transport cars, and believe this to be a good part time job for retirees.

Fed Ex is hiring part-time for package handlers. i would like that job!
but, i'm sure i could not keep up with lifting, or pace. so. won't go there.

winter driving. ugh.
o.well. it is what it is.
