Well at least you're closer to the shootout! Still working with the same company?

no. after 9 years with my current company its time to move on. last year i made cat analyst and egsa master and all i got was a pat on the back. the company got a 25% increase in pay on any warranty work i do because of the analyst cert. i got nothing. :/
the gf lives out there any way so i meet with the local cat dealer and they made me a offer i couldn't refuse. $6.25 hr increase over what i currently make and they will cover up $2500 in relocation expenses. so i was a fairly easy call to make. it will be nice not having to worry about working 50 to 60 hrs a week to make ends meet.

thanks. its a 250 base pay increase. with a good ot week making 625 extra is nothing. last year i spent better part of a month out of country working and ended the year somewhere around 1200 hrs of ot. most i have ever made is a little over 1200 in one day(4k for the week). but those days/weeks are not that common. worst part is when you see what everyone takes out of your check.

Its hard to say right now. They are a lot small company so most travel will be in state or out in the gulf.
