Rag Horn Report post Posted July 19, 2017 Does he have a LinkedIn Profile? Might help find someone who knows someone. Can't think of anyone I know off hand but if he has a profile and somehow I know someone at a company he wants to work for I'll be happy to help where I can. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chico Report post Posted July 19, 2017 Obtaining a CDL will certainly create more opportunity for him . Utility industry currently having a few folks retiring . Both of the major players in the valley will be looking to go external hire soon if not filled internally . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
300RUM Report post Posted July 19, 2017 You might check with equipment rental companies like United Rentals or blue line. Some of those guys have East Valley yards. If he is a diesel mechanic with hydraulic experience he could maintain the equipment if he has a CDL he could drive the semis that they used to deliver the equipment. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MULEPACKHUNTER Report post Posted July 19, 2017 Where's that rowdy racks guy located, he seems to be a good guy, maybe he will have something? Or I would really try hard at getting in one of the school district shops. Maybe SRP has a shop? I would offer a machining job but it's not the best job without experience.

That would be Chris Rollins, his shop is located in the same building as Caswells. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoss50 Report post Posted July 19, 2017 Empire Cat has other divisions that might need people too. Power Systems, Rentals, etc. I have a couple buddies in the power systems area. 1 is an engineer, but the other is a mobile repair tech now. He started in the shop fixing equipment.
