Welcome back to the new NEFF. Take a break from Twitter and Facebook. You don't go to Dicks for your fly fishing gear, you go to your local fly fishing store. Enjoy!

Work It Out

"or hell, enter a training program or college and find a new line of work!" some of us have been doing the same thing for a long, long time and we are damn good at it, why the hell should we have to change. Because some jerkoff homeowner wants to get a better deal on the work, so he hires uninsured, and usually under-experienced illegal workers who are taking work from myself and many other highly skilled craftsmen, and usually do a crap job anyway....i don't think that is the answer at all. But this wasn't the illegal immigrant thread, so i'll just stop now.

exactly!.............
 
I got one response for all you guys out there who talk shit about mexicans
First of all i am a irishman in ny i used to be an illegal working off the books but ill tell you one thing never in my life would i let myself get paid to do what im good at for 10 bucks an hour .


Most of the guys i know are afraid of work .So besides the point of people being laid off for lack of work is one thing.
But there is a lot of resources out there.

Most people want want want and give nothing back.

As a wise man once asked me why i went to work i told him to make money
His response was no you go to work to be of service to your employers and then make money.

I have never ever let that Lesson get in the way of my bs while working.

Alot of people out there not willing to run that extra yard push that extra inch.
Dont worry about the illegals my freinds they have been here and will always be here.

Only the strong survive.

Please dont take this personal anybody thats laid off due to uncontrolable circumstances.

Jamie.
 
Dave,
Where did you read that I use illegals? Please quote me. I never said it.

It wasn't that you asked for help, it was as though you were entitled to it. Want me to go back and find the post?

I had my hands full with other peoples problems during that time, I did my share.

You havin' a bad day or life?

#47 says your exact quote............Do I need to help you find it?
 
Why are these guys fighting?

Based on the first posts made by each, it seems like it would be more productive if they were exchanging business cards, instead of misinterpreting a few off hand remarks....

BTW: Dave, I saw your sig on another site.
Are you also affiliated with Sutton Outfitters Home Page ?

Having a bad day the minuite I read your comment about letting the illeagles do it............ I am workin 3 jobs just to make half of what I used too because of this exact reason!

As far as the flood, why do you find it nessasary to rip on me because I live on the river and my house along with thousands of others went under multiple times??? IS THIS REALLY FUNNY ????


You have to think that I was a tad stressed watching my house go under.... DID yours?
 
Coolio,
Who said I had no work. I didn't use any racial slurs. So, you must be referring to Dave, right?
Now you go calling me Coolio! Did I sing "slide slide slippety slide"??? Babyblue, I apologize, you didn't use any racist slurs, so I shouldn't have used the word "folks". However, you did open a big, ugly can of worms, and this is a fly fishing board damn it!

Dave,
I would NEVER live near enough to a big river to get flooded. There is much history regarding low lying communities that the Delaware has flooded.

Dave's remarks regarding the "folks" on this forum are contained in the last post of "local economies". Did you really mean all that Dave? If not, now would be a good time to apologize.
 
Stressful times during those floods........ People say things when they r upset. Do and say whatever you want........... I have definetly grown up a tad since then. What u r doing right now by bringing up the past is def f`d up.


You are truely class act.
 
I have not posted in a while but i still read the threads.

Anyways I am a NYPD cop. The best job ever! lol
 
I've been a screen printer since 2001 (all of my adult life). I work at a little place on the pier in Red Hook, Brooklyn. I'm a sample printer, so I have to make 1 of something, such as a prototype nightgown for Bloomingdale's, or a see-thru tank top for Scarlett Johansson or a bikini top before it's been sewn. It's a lot of stress, and my company is retarded, but I'm awesome at it and I get my pick of shirts the other guys screw up.

Dude. Do you work with Mindy and Jim? I used to be in bay 5B, down past the water taxis.

Professional BS'r!!

I can't discuss my real job, because it is GS13 Classified.

I am really a professional fisherman, I am just in the service to support my habit. I guess in order to be professional I would have to be sponsored by someone......so...who wants to sponsor me?!?!?!:fart:
 
...so...who wants to sponsor me?!?!?!


You know what...

ALL KIDDING ASIDE.

I just finished doing laundry and found $2.78 in the bottom of the washing machine.

Your in luck!

Life is timing, you now have an official sponsor.

So, I want an AK SKIM sticker on each side of your drift boat..

Above the water line!

AK Skim
Official Drift Boating Sponsor
Salmon River

PS
Only on the Salmon River, not that other New Yuck river where bad things happens to drift boats.. if you know what I mean.
 
I work in the State Courts with a Judge and we operate a drug treatment court. The pay sucks but the rewards are plenty. I try to promote outdoor sports to the addicts as a way of finding a healthy high as those on this forum demonstrate, as we are jiunkies all.
 
I realized i started this thread and never posted what i did other than some vague clues.

I am a financial advisor. Now before you all start throwing spears at me, I am not one of these wall streeters doing default credit swaps and CMO's. I do financial planning for families.

I have to admit I love what I do. I do feel I help people, aside from what public opinion at this point might be. Fly fishing has been my sanity the last 6 months.
 
I work for Dupont making heavy duty truck paint. Freightliner,peterbuilt volvo post office ups and such. It pays my bills for another 3 years till I retire in the poconos.
