I leave for Wyoming in three days!
« on: March 04, 2007, 12:52:18 PM »
I'm heading out to FSW in 3 days for a couple of job interviews and to make living arrangements in preperation for my move out in may!  I've got a friend coming with me that is strongly considering moving to FSW this summer as well.  If everything goes according to plan we'll hit buffalo, Gillet, Cody and Pinedale.  I'd like to get together with some of you if time permits.

Mountain Logger,

The easts loss is the free wests gain.  Keep an eye out for a job this ol' liver replacement recipiant can do (with insurance that is.)

Was nice to meet you and your wife at RBC 2 in Ramsuer.  Always a good feeling to meet folks for the first time that you already pretty much know you're gonna like.

Keeping the happy thoughts (mmm, free 7.62, no socialists in the political system) flowing in your direction,
The Guy

Mountain Logger,

When you get to Buffalo, contact Greg Smith at Coldwell Banker Real Estate.  Very sharp fellow, honest and just a great guy.......

The Super 8 there is good place to stay as well.....

Well I am back from my trip.  Aside from meeting Jim and Kim (Survivalmama and her husband and kids) the trip did not turn out well.  I got a lesson in the way things can work out there as far as jobs go.  The pipeline company that I was going to go to work for had to lay off 200 of its 215 people because of a BLM ruling running everyone out of the energy fields for the time being because of nesting birds of all things!  I interviewed at another company while I was there but that was more of the same. The first company still wants to hire me but I don't think I'll go with that option as NO ONE had the manners to call me and tell me NOT to come out for the interview!  I called the day before I left to make sure everything was still a go and they said it was but then I get out there and they both tell me that they are not hiring right now and that they knew this two weeks ago!!!  They could have called and said, come out latter but no!  Oh well, thats the way the cookie crumbles I guess.  Kim is an excellent cook and hostess!  Jim & Kim, thanks again for inviting us into your home and for a great meal and conversation.  I am sorry that time didn't allow for me to get to gether with the rest of you as I would really have liked that, hopefully next time.  It looks like my move will be delayed for a while now while I regroup and study my options :-[

Damn Mountainlogger I am sorry your trip didn't work out.  Hang in there . I'll keep my ears open for ya. In a couple of more years there will be a place I can probobly get you hired at but I know that doesn't do you any good right now. I have heard that someone is building a plant that makes pellets for pellet stoves, in Saratoga. Or rather Encampment, next door. I'll let you know if I see any more info on that one.   Miles

Ya, that was a pretty raw deal.  A simple phone call would have been nice,  that would have saved 2200 miles and 36 hours driving each way at least.  In a way it was good as it made me VERY aware of just how unstable the job market is out there when it comes to federal land.  I'm glad I hadn't moved and THEN gotten laid off, that would have really made me mad.
