ex-Sr Programmer on the hunt . . .

[Code_Breaker]

Hey, everyone, I know this my be OT, but I thought more people would read it here.

 

I am no longer working in Walnut, CA. I was laid off due to lack of work.

 

Actually, the company has lost three major customers due to bad work and late deliveries.--Gillette, Calmar and Stull. There has been others, but these were major hits to our work load. Presently, there is only one major job in the shop and it is on hold.

 

Also, one of the two owners sold out and now they are trying to reduce their liabilities. High paid employees are being let go. One of the top designers (also stock holder) with the company 25 years was also laid off.

 

The company's new General Manager has no mold making experience. He doesn't even know the differences between a CH and HH on a mold. He is only hired to turn the company from a mold making to "Manufacture of Molds" Several mold makers were let go or quit. He wants to do away with the position of Mold Maker and make them assemblers instead.

 

Anyway, enough of this. I will continue to visit here as much as possible. I am looking for work in So. Cal area. I live in Corona. If anyone knows of an opening, please let me know.

 

Thanks

Good luck dude, sounds like it was a crappy place to work anyway.

Don,

We just hired another forum member who started here Monday. I don't think they are looking for

another prorammer right now, but I will ask.

Code_Breaker,

 

This might not be what your looking for but maybe something to tide you over. We are looking for some part-time instructors here at the Ontario NTMA Training Centers. Lots of hours days and nights so it would be split shift. It could be real erratic as far the times go. We are are also looking for a full time guy, but full time here is 25 hours a week. Between the night and day stuff you might be able to pull the 40 hours most guys want. Let me know if your interested in teaching.

Whew... I dodged a bullet on that one didn't I?

 

James teh interviewed there and seriously considered the position.

 

Drop me an e-mail. I may have something for you.

[HVC]

Come-on james i thought we were friends?

Code breaker is San Diego to far?

[Guest CNC Apps Guy 1]

I was replying while you were replying so I didn't see it until afterwards. Sorry, you get first dibbs. My bad.

 

What I have would not interest you in case that's what you were meaning.

[Code_Breaker]

Tom,

 

Thanks, email me at my newly posted e-mail address.

 

Henri,

 

I might be interested . . . send me info via e-mail.

 

James,

 

Thanks, I am looking into your info

 

Metalmuncher,

 

Unfortunatily, SD is too far, thanks for playing

[Code_Breaker]

Henri,

 

got your e-mail . . . very interested

 

James,

 

Left message . . .

 

Henri and James,

 

No conflict between you guys, both will work.

 

Are they any other taker? Remember, I program for soft and hard machining, electrodes etc. This is not just your every day type of programming, but very complicated models. Tool path generations changes from model to model. Many times, creative thinking makes a model reality.

 

Not bragging . . . just speaking from experiences.

Code Breaker,

You can't keep a good man down.
