I'm happy for you Jim. Having the cash come in will be a real stress reliever and that alone will allow you to enjoy more of life. Like Scott said, you get to Cincinnati area let us know.

HAHAHAH so once again it changes and this looks firm, off to St. Louis on Sunday to start the job at a Courtyard on Monday...
Which Courtyard are you working at?
I know the hotel and have even stayed there. "Near" is a relative term. To most St. Louisans the answer would be "no". But it is all of 14 miles and will take maybe 20 minutes; 15 if I leave from the office. I should be able to come by anytime.
BTW: I don't know if you speak any French ("Creve Coeur" means "broken heart"), but if you do, you will probably pronounce the city incorrectly. I won't try to spell out the proper phonetic spelling, but here it is pronounced "Creeve Core".
Later I will teach you how we St. Louisans pronounce "Gravois".

Good question. Fortunately, I have a good answer.

Due to the somewhat small window we can get in rooms there is more free time than you might think. Still today seemed a lot like work, the new tvs came in and had to be unloaded at the same time as three other shipments came in..
Jim S. I am a hillbilly and am lucky to pronounce things in english let alone French. Come by anytime you want I will PM you my cell number.
Here is something interesting to think about.. am having a hard time finding workers not that folks do not want a job but to get it they have to pass a background check and a drug test. You might or might not be surprised at how hard it is to find strong young gents who can manage those two things.

Sounds like you may have 2 choices: pay the Americans more than they are getting from "unemployment" or indenture some Mexicans.
Good Luck

This work pays much better than unemp. and I have been informed we have an account with Labor ready, actually the CA job I was to use labor ready folks so the imagrant thing is covered too. Odd I can use L/R with no screening.
The issue is finding people who can pass the drug test and back ground check, then they need to be able to travel for extended periods and pick up TVs.
