I got a new job! I will be working for TechTeriors (http://www.techteriors.com). I am their new electrician's apprentice / helper. I will once again be wiring houses, only this time, very upscale houses. Million-dollar houses. I'll also be doing home theatre setups, including installing flat screen TV's and hooking them up.
Not only that, but this company offers a good benefits package, and I'm getting $4 / hr more than my last job! Sweet!
I guess good things come to those who get laid off! Right TXFO?
