He works at a company called Stryker at the Hamilton office, they deal with medical equipment. Back in November I had an interview for a tech job doing the installation of equipment in OR rooms. It ended up going to someone else who was waiting longer for a position with them. Regarless, I passed the "gallop", a very difficult over the phone non-technical personality analysis interview to see if you're right to work for the company; basically 45 minutes of the worse interview questions with a failure rate in excess of 80%. So I had one foot in the door, just had to wait for a position to open up, or more specifically get a headcount into their departement. However there was another option; doing contract work for them repairing hospital beds that have a recall in the braking system and that's what I got called for. It's a good 6 months work of work, kind of a trial to see if I do a good job and if they like me. It's a risk, but a risk work taking. Although the majority of the work is in Ontario and a good chunk in Quebec, there will be some travel but within Canada, BC and Alberta mostly, I get to come home every weekend, with the odd few that may cross over into two weeks, but it's a hell of alot better than being away for months at a time (and I don't have to deal with living around these damn Americans anymore!).
So it won't be a year of frivilous spending anyway, maybe a second vehicle but that's would be mostly out of necessity, but it's a step in the right direction and a second foot in the door for an internal position with Stryker which should happen around the end of that contract, but in the mean time I would still do work for them as a field tech, so I'm not lost after this. So it should be a good summer in terms for car related stuff
A good move bro, I will have to catch up with yah and fill you in. Life sure is interesting and i am looking forward to this summer too buds. Cheers
). I've got the cap, the MSD coil and I just picked up the coil-to-cap wire today, so I just need some time to get that installed, so hopefully by mid next week, but i hope to get her running for the weekend, especially if the weather turns out to be nice, I really need a good drive and some quality time with the Mx
