I worked for a company called TelStrat. I did technical support and installations for a product line that we had.

I also managed the entire buliding, making sure everything was up to code and running smoothly.

Sounded like you had your plate full.....I feel sorry the company to lose someone that did multi-jobs. They will find out soon enough for themselves.

They let a lot of people go. The girl at the front desk, HR Manager, PRESIDENT, and about 11 other people.

I think that there is only going to be about 20 people left. A year ago there was about 175.

Jeremy,

Sorry to hear about the layoff man. If you're into manual labor the Beverage Distribution industry is always hiring this time of year. I delivered beer for 7 years and it never slows down.

Like Hal said, try AT&T. My uncle worked there for YEARS and retired there still loving the company. I may try them soon myself.

Thanks Eric, I am into anything that gives a paycheck. It does not bother me if it is manual labor or sitting at a desk all day.

I'm so jealous of you guys who went to the Gumball. FMMFL

Eric, you used to be a merchandiser? I worked for Coke not too long ago. I didn't like it too much, but paid well.

it was quite an experience. Really, living in DFW, 98% of what showed up you will see driving on the road somewhere (like Preston), but the Veyrons made it worth it. Wished i hadn't missed the XJ220 though. Hoepfully, I will get some time to put some pics up.

coupon for free 2 piece KFC grilled chicken. You have to print it by tonight at 11:59. And you have to install their stupid coupon printer. I think it limits the number of coupons printed using the IP address on your printer. I printed one, but nobody else in the office could because it said the maximum # of coupons had been printed.
