Well, thank you very much. I am just happy if it helps anyone. I guess the shock and hassle of looking for a job 5 years ago is what motivated me then and continues to motivate me. At this point I sort of think this is my job (at Ellington) till retirement ... but the Lord might have different plans for me.jar546 said:Congrats and good luck.

They come to Texas? I thought perry outlawed thatmmmarvel said:Different airport -This one has no commercial flights - we support NASA, air national guard, coast guard, we are where the president and vice president land when they come to this area. Big difference from the answers that you have come up with when dealing with airlines.
As it turns out, they have given us the practice shuttle/module that was used during training. They are presently dismantling the 747 that served as the carrier for the shuttle and will ship it piece by piece down to where it will be on display (because they don't have a landing area down there). Then the practice shuttle will be mounted on top of it. Yeah, they wouldn't give us one of the ones used for real - I'm a thinking Obama had a hand in that decision.cda said:But do you have a space shuttle????Enterprise*

I used to work at a base in San Antonio and sometimes the shuttle would stop over piggy backed to the 747mmmarvel said:As it turns out, they have given us the practice shuttle/module that was used during training.

It was a job posting on the city website. I had done similar work and was looking to move out of the position I occupied. I thought I had done pretty well on the interview but the interview was in April and the job offer didn't happen till July - ah, the speed of the city.Rider Rick said:Nice Job. Keep up the good work. How did you hear about your new job?
My job is facilities superintendent or facilities coordinator but the city title for the job is inspector as I inspect work done by contractors and to ensure that the contractor is living up to what the contract calls for. We are the smallest of the three airports with only 29 Airport staff so work like HVAC, fire protection (alarm systems), pest control (insects), garbage, radios, landscaping (one aspect of it), etc. are all contracted out. So I'm busy, get to travel around the airport and deal with lots of outside contractors.Glennman CBO said:What is your job there? What is it that you do?
