Fuckin sucks. Anyone need welding/fab work?

Wow that sucks. Hope you find some work.

Thanks.

Sorry to hear it man....seriously.

Hope you find some work.

im a welder/fabricator/machinist. we are anticipating layoffs this week.

but then again im an awesome welder only been there a few years. non union and i get paid for shit. its the guys with 20 or more years that suck at welding and make 25+ that are shitting themselves in fear of losing their jobs.

do you have your own shop? i want to make something that i could make at work but they wont let me.

No. I started in local 7. This job was with a huge national service center company working with grating and perforated sheet metal. Where you at?

i think electric boat in conn was looking for welder/machinist types a couple months back

god i hope i'm not next. this shit's gettin outta hand

currently wright line in worcester. shitty factory job full of hacks. i work in the custom welding department (re. the only 3 guys in the building that can really weld)

we make "technical office furniture" and "data center environments". fancy desks and server towers. boring.

Damn Rick,

Sorry to hear about that.

Looks like you'll have to go back to male prostitution again in the mean time. I hear there a high demand for that.\\

that sucks, rick. hopefully you'll get back to work somewhere soon.

I kinda need something made, but I'm not sure if it falls into your line of work.

Also, I think maybe it could be made out of plastic. It's a logo for my amp.

And totally not a bong.

Good luck dude. This sucks.

that blows... start a private business there is always demand for welding.

I got laid off in December. I just started a shitty restaurant job last night because it's all I've been able to get.

Mind your own business.... goof...

I got laid off myself, fucking sucks.

Sorry to hear that Steve.

That really fucking blows.

Appreciate the kind words. Haha, Matt. Got an interview tomorrow for a job in Reading. Josh, you guys do TIG?

I'm laid off, but I am SUPPOSED to be getting my job back at the beginning of April when business picks up.

So you're doing nothing till then? Hopefully you can deliver pizzas or something to fill the time,right?

Wish me luck today.

Where are you applying at today?

My department is the only one that does any TIG welding at my work. A few odd jobs made out of stainless and all of the fixtures the tool room makes are aluminum so we have to weld those too.

I had nothing to weld today so I bent pieces for file cabinets all day. lame.
