Updates

It's been awhile since my last post.  It's been awhile since my last job too.  I did work for a company in Dupont, WA that claimed they were going to keep me, and another guy that started the same day I did, for seven months to a year.  And then 2 days, two hours later they laid us off.  What they really needed was for workers to come in and tear down forms for a few days at a time throughout the term of the project.  I won't say their name but they're a pretty lame company and I plan on NEVER working for them again.

Then I got a call to work for AMI (Architectural Millwork Installation) and I must say they have been the best company I've worked for since I joined the Union.  My first day consisted of unloading trucks for the Victoria Secrets in downtown Seattle, at 4 am.


At first I thought it would be for a day or two but they kept calling me back to unload more.  They they moved me to a Seattle University site and I worked there a few days on and off too.


Then it was back to VS to unload more and eventually installed some shelves too.







All in all AMI kept me for a little over a month when they needed help.  I also worked a day on Bainbridge Island installing counter tops for a cafe.  I took pictures but they're on my phone and haven't figured out how to transfer them.
