Employment

PLEASE NOTE:
At Indal, where I'm currently working, the work week is only 37.5 hours without much need for over time.
I have a great boss who understands when I ask for Fridays or Mondays off for my championship winning boat racing endeavors.
At this point in time, unless you are offering an excellent pay wage for Pro/E work with benefits, I'm happy where I am now.
Feel free to call with a detailed description and an offer, but please DON'T call or email and ask what I'm getting now and what would I be looking for in another job.   It's just not on my mind right now.  Thanks.
