Just seeing if anyone on here or knows of anyone looking for an employe to fill a position?

Here is a quick run down about me.  
Managed a local area ski shop for the last 10 years. (Not looking to get back in that line of work). So I have pretty good sales and management experience.  
Have my A.A.S in Business administration.  
Have 10 + years military experience. (Not doing much for me now)

But the main thing is I go to UB full time so I’m not available until 3PM Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

So if anyone knows or hears of anything. Could you give me a heads up?

Thanks

Smaefer

Did you try the post office? I hear that being in the military gets you a few extra points.

Thats more of a carrier and plus thats not going to work with school. I’m looking for something to get me buy until my background check for Homeland security is done and that should take another few months. But if I could find something pretty flexible like bar tending. I would be willing to do that until I’m done with school for some extra cash.

So far I have applied to T mobile, Urban Outfitters, Home Depot, Seneca Niagara Casino, Wegmans, West Herr, and Tony Walker Co.

Thinking about giving Ingram Micro a shot.

I could see you as a bartender.

Then I could treat the bar like you treated Subway when I worked there 10 years ago…

I already signed up for that back in July. But thats not going to help me out in the time being. And I kind of think law enforcement is not for me anymore. I really want to finish up at UB and go on from there. Maybe consulting or GIS.

Thats not helping me, so thanks. And on a side note why don’t you get me a job? I gave you one for 4 years.:meh: I really miss those special moments of you on your knees.

Actually that is horrible advice. Don’t ever use your military credits for the exam. A degree doesn’t help if it’s a requirement. Even if it isn’t it won’t give you any additional points on the exam. The best advice for those who want to get into law enforcement and have military credits. SAVE THEM FOR PROMOTIONAL EXAMS!

I’m well aware of that. I was advised of that when I took the NYPD exam…

And lets keep this about me trying to find a job NOW. Not about what my future employment could be.

and for what it’s worth, if I was hiring right now, I’d entertain the idea of having a Shop-Smaef around.

As tempting as it sounds I might take you up on that offer. And to get a bartender gig you need a hook up to get in. And I really don’t know anyone anymore.
