[The Black Sheepdog]

Oh wow, I didn't know San Jac offered Pro-Tech classes. Or rather in this case, a Pro-Tech course. If they just started a program, its about time. They're behind CoM and Lee College.

[bluewave18]

They have had the program for years. I know many who have taken it. Good post Train.

San Jac has a pretty good process tech pro gram and they have for many years...

they also have a pretty damn good instrumentation program as well... I know some guys that started at Lee and go to San Jac now and they like they like the san joke program better

[06fairedfz1]

[AliceInChains02]

[06fairedfz1]

that's what they were telling us as well, just ready to get out of the bs of the automotive industry

[C.Hern5972]

I webt thru the Process Tech program back in 92. They have a great program. I have been in the industry since 93 and it is definately a good job, benefits, vacation, and time off. If anyone here needs help that already has there certificate please feel free to pm me. I can give you a few different places to go apply and start getting the ball rolling. Nothing wrong with working 14 days a month.

[BigComfy]

[Princess]

[Squoddybody]

some do hair test now

I work in the BPA and CIP units. Im a board operator in those units. yes most of the companies out there are doing hair test

:nod: Wayne was hair tested three times last year! They can find ANYTHING as far back as six months! It's not worth it to lose your job and fantastic pay for a hit off a joint- as I have known a few to do.

And I know some of you guys shave your head, so does Wayne- they used his armpit hair!

[C.Hern5972]

Yes they will get it from the armpit, leg, arm. Also if you shave they will do a fingernail scrape as well. They can go back 6 months like ^^^^ said.

[lightlord]

well january hear i come

[bluewave18]

They gets no hair from me long enough to test. Not cause I want to hide anything. I get it all mowed down.

[C.Hern5972]

nail scrape if no hair bro

[MudBug]

hummm. I was a boilermaker for 7 years. I would love to get back in the plants. The money is good and the hours are great.

[C.Hern5972]

Let me know if you want to come to Turner Ind. I work for Hexion but know allot of the foreman for maint.

[C.Hern5972]

would be good to get your foot in the door so when we hire more maint. or operators you will have a refferal

[MudBug]

Whats the $$$ like.

[bluewave18]

prolly mid 20s. Its a maint. job

[C.Hern5972]

D,
i sent you a PM

[The Black Sheepdog]

I work in the BPA and CIP units. Im a board operator in those units. yes most of the companies out there are doing hair test

[C.Hern5972]

[dudewhrsmybike]

What do yall know of the program at ACC? I was planning on taking it there since Central is a bit further from me.

[C.Hern5972]

all of the program are about the same that i know of. The central campus does have the small glycol unit you operate. Get in there and get the degree. there are quiet a few places hiring right now.

[MudBug]

I have a few little problems I need to get resolved before I get back into construction. I am supposed to be stress free and taking it easy for the next who knows how long. And no more Red Bull.
