Recently laid off….checking my options. Search and click my name…I’ve been around here for a while….give an email if you’d like to talk. All around remodeler…van fulla tools…..good attitude…..better posture…..and pretty good trim/finish work. Worked as a one man do-it-all remodeler before this recent stint as an employee for a high end design/build firm…..mainly doing trim for them…and buttoned up jobs as the leads moved on to start new projects. Very well rounded, work wise. Customers even like me for the most part! Jeff

Good luck Jeff, I've followed your story from your postings for going on a year or so now and you certainly could use to catch a break. It's hard to keep a good attitude in that situation but try. It will happen.
*Thanks...the only real kick in the @$$ was the way they decided to switch to subs all of a sudden....guess it was in the works behind the scenes for a while.....but while with that company....I got to do some nice detailed work...and the check cleared every Fri...so who's to complain! At the very least....I have some great pics for the portfolio...good things come to those.....who are good carpenters! Jeff
*come on out Jeff...work is waiting.
