I haven't really posted much here just always been more of a lurker, but I thought it is worth a shot to at least try. So here goes.
Is there anyone in the area that you know of needing any help? Although I am technically an AutoCAD draftsman, I can do just about anything. For the last few years I have been doing Construction Estimation and before that I was the Information Technology guy for one of the local county utilities here. I've been the office manager for a local global business, a welder, a machinist, hell I've even delivered pizza. Just kind of always done what needed to be done to work and provide for the family and now that diversity makes me look like I just skip from job to job. I don't, but I want to find something stable so I can at least work. I'm willing to relocate, even for temporary work. If you know or if you hear of anything let me know I'm sitting here resume in hand. Or better yet why not post it, here it is:
