Well let's not be too hasty. If they would be willing to fly me down to Orlando for a few days to interview and get a feel for the company and the area....

It would probably take a good few days there before I decided that it just "didn't feel right".

I agree, throw in airfare for the kids, and tickets to Disneyworld.

I suppose you would want hotel accomidations at the Hilton and an open bar tab also?

How about interview in Feb and get tickets to the Daytona 500 for you and 10 of your closest friends......LOL

Box seats or Infield?

Beer or Champagne?

I think infield for the Duel and a box for the 500 would work.

I'm pretty much a beer kinda guy so don't worry about any fizzy grape juice.

But thanks for the offer.  :lol:

This is a joke. $12 an hour for 12 hour days. They will never find anyone. bring it up to $22 to $24 an hour and they might find someone. You couldn't live in Orlando for that little amount of money. I know that they want someone with just 3 years exp., but come on. :x

$12 an hour...I'd get almost that much - not working at all - down here.....

But maybe this company in Florida has matching 401k and full medical plan.....so we can retire in our cardboard box...

For those wages, you could rent the bed of your pickup out for their sleeping quarters- charge 'em $20 a night.  $140 a week can get you a nice dinner out with the wife, but you'll have to take her car...  :-)
