Well, the GRM off-topic is starting to look like the classifieds, so I might as well throw my name in too.
30+ years construction management and supervision experience, as well as superior hands-on skills (all aspects of residential and commercial, including Historic Restoration, churches, log and timber framed structures, etc.). Trim, framing, woodworking, general contracting (licensed), CAD design, estimating, but mostly darned good at getting stuff done on-time and on-budget. Particularly good at jobs which involve difficult problem solving. Great understanding of codes, regulations, and engineering principles.
Though I have loved raising my family in the rural South, it's time to relocate. Not much is going to change anytime soon here, and 80% unemployment in my field in this area is too big a challenge to overcome. Would prefer Atlanta, Birmingham, or other big southern city, but open to ideas.
I've been self-employed for most of my life, also worked in industrial maintenance, disaster response, and non-profit community development (Habitat for Humanity for 10 years). I'd rather be connected to a quality big company.
Completely capable on a computer, but function best when my role is 50% or less tied to one.
Thoughts?
Internship search actually. I think I have one lined up, but I'm having a hard time accepting it because it would pay about 1/4-1/2 of my regular summer job
I suppose that real world experience is necessary though.
