Good thing is, they are going to hire 3 more people down there later on, so, either way, I should be able to get in down there. I'd just like to do it now, to be ahead of the next 3 on the seniority list!

I can understand why you want to be ahead on the seniority curve.

Department-wise, yes. I'd be at the bottom. There are only 10 or so people in this department. Company time, though, I'm ahead of almost all of them.

Yep, no sense being at the bottom if I can avoid it!!LOL

Pat, are they just adding the positions or are they filling ones opened up by retirement/people leaving?

The one I applied for now is for a guy that's retiring. But, since they shut us down here, they are running the turbines more, so, they want to add more people.

Anytime after this Wednesday, I guess. That's when the posting ends. Have to wait and see if I get an interview for it.

Yep, pretty much. I'm off Monday and Tuesday, though, I'll make up for it then!

Good morning all, happy Tuesday!

Morning Ken. Maybe this afternoon I'll be able to slack. Calibrations to get done this morning, though.
