Tyers don't pay anything. Tony Murf, got my report --- David Murphy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
--------------------------------- Nick, My consultant fee is one fly which must be tied at Sowbug... with instructions... as I'll never get it right any other way. Funny, for $5 you can stay the entire 3 days at Sowbug and get advice from 100 tyers. That's less than 2 cents a day per "consultant". What? You thought the advice was "free". ;-))) Murf Member: www.virtualflybox.com Favorite Fly Tying Shop: www.LinesEnd.com David T Murphy: The Walper Group, Career Owner, Your Business Door, Franchise; Maryland/Delmarva/Consulting/Consultant/Career/SalesPros, Sales Doors, SurfMurf, Little Diddy --------------------------------- From: "Niclas Runarsson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Subject: [VFB] Good news...

For those who planned to send them later, so they would be fresh and fully charged at the actual interview... thanks, but save them for someone who might need them in the future. I don't need them anymore. I'm home free for Sowbug!!! After Murf asked me what kind of job I was applying for, I realized that this fair might not be an obstacle after all... it could actually be something good. The job I'm applying for is IT instructor and one of the qualities they look for is experience in leading groups. I have lead four tying classes now (none of them mentioned in my resume... forgot) and fact is that Sowbug is a public event, much with an instructional purpose. This would give me yet another addition to the qualities they value. Suddenly I didn't feel as uncomfortable with mentioning it at the interview. But I still didn't feel good about informing my Unemployment Agency contact about it. They use to be rock hard about jobs going before everything else... "make a mistake and we'll cut you off". My own one is one of the nicer ones and she has made me favours in the past. But she still is a very strict one and I don't think actually ASKING her for a favour would be a popular move. So when I called a while ago, I didn't plan to ask her for any help... I merely wanted to inform her about the situation and asking for her advice what to do. There was no hesitation there. I hadn't even come close to the "instructional experience could be a plus" part, that I wrote about, before she in fact TOLD me to go. "This is a chance you've been waiting for so long and I know how much it means to you" etc etc. "If they see it as a problem, tell them that you've discussed it with me and I'm OK with it. No... tell them immediately when giving them the situation and you will give them a more responsible impression checking with me first." So... Sowbug... "nema problema" :o) /Nick --------------------------------- Find flowers, candy and directions to a romantic restaurant with Windows Live Local __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
