My new Job

by Rod
Well, due to popular demand (thanks Katie), here are a few details about my new job. I am working in the construction industry as a (soon to be) apprentice carpenter. The company is named Heartwood, and it serves the Kingston and surrounding areas. Today was my third day, and things have been going pretty well so far. I have been working on an addition to a house which overlooks a lake in a country setting about 20 minutes north of Kingston. It is a beautiful location, and although the work is hard, it is rewarding. The guys I have been working with are a little rough around the edges, but decent and friendly.
I actually got this job through a government program called "Job Connect". I met a gentlemen who works for that program while I was attending my aunt Carolyn's church, and had a meeting with him on Wednesday of last week, and I was hired over the phone for this job on Thursday night, and was working Friday morning. The whole experience was very efficient and effective, I must say. It doesn't sound like anything government related, I know, but somehow this one slipped through the bureaucratic cracks :)
Anyways, I was looking for something in the mechanic field, but construction was another good option, and this was a good opportunity, so I figured I wouldn't let it slip by.
