Had an interview this year for a state job here in my town. I applied for a painter's position and was able to be interviewed. I meet all the qualifcations that was required. The gentleman interviewing me was the head of the paint department and he said that he was only interviewing one other person and they was on a cruise. I was the first to be interviewed so only two made it through. As he walked me out, some of the guys in the maintenance department stopped us and ask how it went. I knew these guys because of my previous job, inwhich I sold them building materials. One of them contacted me when the job was posted and told me to get my resume turned in, so of course he was curious. The head of the painting department said the ou interview went well but he was unsure of the atmosphere in the department because it was all men and the guys like to joke around and that it sometimes got a little ruff down there. Mu buddy said, well this one here can hold her own, I have seen her in action. She knows how to take up for herself. Needless to say, I recieved a email about 3 weeks later telling me that I did not get the job and it would be reposted. My buddy called me and told me to reapply.... lol, yeah right. That took over a month to get an interview and besides that why?? So I can fill the,, " well we do not discriminate because we have interviewed a woman but her private area disqualified her from being around the "men".
I'm a laborer/ house painter Looking for work I have been doing this type of work my hole life. I'm 48 years old and need help finding work
Don't take a job here, the upper management are entirely corrupt and unqualified.
I have been struggling with work over last two years. I am a painter by trade and have discovered some clients will look for the most ridiculous reasons not to pay. Its hurt my family when it has happened. Last two jobs they asked for refunds for things that had absolutely nothing to do with the painting I was hired to do.
Well when it comes to paint jobs. People are very particular and it sometimes gets aggravating trying to fix all the flaws you get .. its alot of hArd work..
Well I liked working for Dan whinnie even tho he was a mean grumpy old man he did and said to me that was totlaly uncalled for but yet he would show a few breaf spots of kindness and he bought me tools when I needed them before we had the falling out I felt like we were friends I miss him. I had a housekeeper and I let her go to the store in my work van but she went to her house and her boyfriend jumped in the van and took off with it and was seen driving it. Dan used another reasen for letting me go but he was good to me and was very important part of my life he showed me alot about being a professional painter and I will conduct myself as the painter he taught me to be
Get ready to be laid off every few years
Thinking 13 years of exceptional service means anything
