Well, just made the move from Ft.lauderdale down to Kendall. My parents made the move based on their current job locations. I am 2 blocks from KTMB(kendall-Tamiami airport), which is underlying the miami Class B. Hit every FBO over there for a customer service or line service job.
I have an interview tomorrow with Reliance avaition, a 135 operator for line service, and after that i am meeting with the owner of a small flight school across the field for line and customer service front desk. If i dont get on board with one of these, looks like its back to waiting tables.

Maybe i could get on with a carrier at MIA working the ramp? Here goes nothing.
 
I can't believe this! I also live in Ft. Lauderdale. Maybe we can go flying sometime.

Maybe she really meant, "Good Luck if you go flying with Brian, hope you don't value your life too much." Just kidding, I kid, I'm a kidder.

Brian, PM me, i'll let you know about maybe spliting some time or something. Anyway, hopefully something works out, i have about a month of 135 experience fueling lears and metros out FXE, but the move killed it. (people werent to friendly so wasnt to bothered by it)

... don't put words in my mouth.. your not annoying and I wouldn't ever say that anyways cuz your in an aviation/maturity "growth spurt"... get over yourself.. really.. and stop seeing yourself as the "bad" or "annoying" kid.. your a kid... I know you'll grow from the experience of being a JC member... but dang it Brian....I just dunno what to say other than that or admonishing you as if you were my kid (not that I would even know HOW to do that constructively! haha)...

when you turn 21, you let us know cuz we'll be buying you a beer at the following Network JC and reminding you of when you were such a turd with putting words in our mouths when we didn't even say anything of the sort

Brian, SA.

There, somebody had to say it.

Keep thinking like that, and you'll wind up in therapy four times a week to kill the self esteem problem.

Yeah, I tought it was aimed towards something like that.
 
Ok, so today I went for the interview, (remember, i got all dressed up for this) Resume in hand, i went to the lady at the front desk and asked for Mr.X the gentleman i spoke with to set up the interview, but, she doesnt speak english.
confused.gif
So, i think somehow she finally understood, and told me, the best she could, it would be 5 minutes. after 45 minutes mr.X shows up, introduces himself, i hand him my resume, he doesnt look at it, but says, no positions are open, ill give you a call.

Instead of being superbly pissed about not getting the interview and waiting 45 minutes, i left to head accross the field speak with the small flight school owner.
I show up at the flight school, and ask if i could speak with Mr.Y regarding employment, and that i had spoke to him over the phone. I'm sorry, he didnt show up today, i think he wont be back till monday, we dont know why, and he hasnt called.

Christy, maybe you and doug can send me a 6 pack and Brian and I will split it. By the way, for anyone interested, the U.S. border ends at the second toll to Kendall.
 
I find it extremely interesting that a non-english person is working a front desk.. not that they don't have the ability to do it, but a position like that requires the use of the english language.

Sorry you had such a rough day! how weird that they would tell you apples over the phone and then hand you oranges in person!! that doesn't make sense!
banghead.gif


So what's the name of the company again? haha
shocked.gif
wink.gif
grin.gif


I'm kidding...don't give out the company name - we wouldn't want to get them in trouble now!

You guys'll get a kick out of this one. There are SEVERAL people that work at the Wal-Mart on 436 that no-speaka. My trick to see if they really DON'T speak English or if they are trying to get me to go away so I can't make them do their job is to say bad things about their mother's in English. If they get mad at me, I got 'em. If not, either they don't understand or they have incredibly good self control.

As far as ramp jobs, they're pretty hard to come by right now. Who knows what's gonna happen with the big boys, and SWA is still on an external hiring freeze. Your best bet would probably be JetBlue out of FLL. You can hit their website, and there should be links to apply there.
 
I had a guy do something like that to me in St. Thomas. He was combing the streets trying to "hook" people for a time share scam. Something about a "free tour of the island." I said "no comprendo" and kept walking. He said as I walked away, "sir did you drop this twenty dollar bill?" Of course I turned around and looked.

He said, "yeah no comprendo to you too buddy."
