   *Ron, Good call. I'll check it out.Mike Smith, Thanks for the offer but the new house will be finished around January and the wife has 14 years at her position so relocation is not an option. But I sure do like your part of the country! Can I telecommute?Mike

   *Are you kidding ? Did you even look at the pictures of when Mark Cadioli was there 'working' with him ? 3/4 of the time Mark was just leaning on a shovel, or holding down a boulder, or holding up a wall. Working with Mike is obviously a very cushy job.b : )

    *and those were the bad times!.....for a start we never commenced work before the crack of noon. Then Mike calls a cab and takes the whole crew out to lunch. After lunch, a mandatory 1 hour nap is declared. At this point a vote is taken on whether to start work for the day. The choice is either to start work, or play golf the rest of the day ( on full pay of course )....Mike was always very carefull to get his clothes dirty before he went home though.

   Hey guys,

   Does anyone know of any web sites specific to construction, tools, material reps, etc. jobs? I've been surfing but haven't found anything thats any good. I kept hearing monster.com was THE place to go but its quite a joke. A lot of the jobs posted are for temp services and the discussion board is just a bunch of kids hanging out being rude and useless. The board is nothing like the high quality, informative ones here.

   I must just be getting old???

   Thanks for any info.

   Mike
