    If you guys didn't know, Peter (Rabbit) now works at Tires Plus in White Bear Lake. Hit him up if you need some tires. I for one just gave my 2 wks. and i'll be working in Eden Priarie for Aramark.

    I'm also looking for PT work Mon-Fri. from 4-8pm curious to see what is out there...;)

    My other side options:

    -Catering, It will only be me and my wife, so we can accomedate around 20-30 people comfortably...

    For everyone that knows about my situation, thanks again for all your support and hope that 2008 will be a good year.

    Probably because the sales business sucks and is too stressful.

    Hey Ray (or anyone else interested) I do some occasional sidework cleaning/janitorial stuff and my boss just asked if I know anyone looking for pt work m-f starting 3:30-4:00 and the job takes 2.5-3hrs a night somewhere in St Paul I think. Its not exciting work but it is steady income and really easy. Hit me up if you want any details. This is all I really know about it at the moment.

    Good luck Ray:)

    Just tired of all the BS I get *Mostly Customers* not you guys, yes customer wore me out lol...White Bear has treated me great, but I just feel I need to make a move now, before I'm stuck at the same position for the next 20 years. Just need a better career path for my future...can't see myself as a car salesmen for the rest of my life.

    The position I accepted from Aramark was a executive chef postion @ the GE Building in eden prairie

    Love the hours...

    M-F 6-2pm weekends off...That's why I'm thinking of do'in some other side jobs possible catering...;)

    Thanks guys for all the support...stay in this biz brings to many mood swings hahaha

    I saw that happen once at a pool hall/restaurant. It was the new cook's first day we found out, the last guy never cleaned the grease traps or something. We could see the kitchen was in flames and a bit later the waitress politely told us we weren't going to be able to get our orders. The fire was pretty well contained to the stove though, but must not have been fun for the new guy.

    ^^ And when the catering gets moving...if you ever need some occasional help, we can talk.

    I've worked in restaurants and event planning, and now I'm in accounting :ugh:, so sometimes I need the fast-pace back for an evening.

    Just a thought.
