Hello everyone.

My former employer called me Saturday inquiring about my interest in going back to Afghanistan, this time under a 2-year contract.

I said that yes I'd sign on.

He said I should expect another call today to explore this further, else I'm to call him back tonight.

He said that the company can't find any qualified mechanics and that the group they hire will attend a factory school on the aircraft before going to Afghanistan.

He said that I was in a stack of resumes that HR gave him and that he was unaware that I had been over to Afghanistan for his company last year. I mentioned that I had completed all the military's deployment certs (no waivers to go over and then come back to finish the stuff later) less than a year ago and so I might be able to promptly deploy again.

Now I wait to see if there is any dirt in those HR files about me and if it makes a difference to him.

Tomorrow I have two more phone interviews for other employers.

One is the Iraq embassy job, which I was advised by email today might be on hold.

The other is for maintaining a UAV helicopter.

You could probably do all you have to and resell it at the same price.
Thank's JIm

Been splitting wood in the full sun all morning.
The slow little splitter burns oil so I'm not only toasted, sore from being hunched over. and all scraped up, but I've been swimming in a nasty blue cloud of acrid smoke.

Time for a shower and some lunch.
Jim, they are for the older 4.6L 2V V8 modular ford motors!
