      Henry Homesteader - Blowback 9mm Carbine

      Make it in 10mm, and I would buy one.

      We have several women that have graduated from our Apprenticeship. Of those several, many have been promoted to supervisory and management positions. Matter of fact, I think most of the supervisors and managers are former Apprentices.

      Where do you get this information from, because it is not true at all. Technicians may seek out positions of supervisor, management or inspections but I know of no one who have left the department for other departments. Please stop spreading falsehoods. This post is for those looking for a...

      If inflation stays on the same track, opportunities to make more may be there. Of course eggs will be $20 a dozen.

      Where, or where do you get this from? Certainly not from facts. There is not "lots of mandatory overtime". Plenty of work, not mandatory overtime.

      That is not a correct statement. We may post a recruitment for Apprentices once a year at most. This program is exactly the opportunity that Mike Rowe references in regard to building a great well paying career without accumulating massive school loan debt.

      Be best to secure the job first, before worrying about overtime.

      Thank you for that information. I pass by there twice a day. Going to stop by soon.

      Grissley murder is SOMD

      You may recall a similar incidence that happened about 25 years ago in the Lexington Park area. A Navy Warrant Officer shot another Sailor with a crossbow at an apartment complex. Upon killing him, the WO cut up the body and distributed it around the area. Some body parts were found in a...

      Application Progress Tracking Thread

      I meant retired Military, thus not needing the classes. Where I wonder if that is a difference

      Application Progress Tracking Thread

      I am curious about the process, too. Does being Military Retired affect the time to approval?

      MSP hiring announcement - Licensing Division

      The employment opportunity I posted in the jobs section as an elevator/escalator tech, pays substantially more, and you are not stuck in an office answering the phone all day. Just a thought

      Best price locally for ammo

      Other than shotgun and rimfire, anything else on the shelves. I see .308 and 350 Legend once in a while but that is about it. Oh, for the days of handgun, 5.56 and all the rest, I miss those Walmart days.

      WMATA (Metro) is hiring for elevator/escalator technicians

      As difficult it was to read, I will say that you are broadcasting very inaccurate information. I am not going to waste time arguing with an ill informed person. Like I said earlier, my post was to inform and encourage those interested in a good technical trade where you can build a future...

      WMATA (Metro) is hiring for elevator/escalator technicians

      Once again, where do you get this information? Make it up as you go along? Only "outsourced" work is either replacement or modernization of existing equipment, much like any other transportation company. Those people you say are standing around watching the contractors, those people are...

      WMATA (Metro) is hiring for elevator/escalator technicians

      Not sure where you are getting your information from. Mandatory overtime? Nope. Transferred to other job classification? Only when involved with promotion, ie, inspector, engineering, quality assurance. Understaffed, yup. Much like almost all other skilled trades. Dealing with an aging...
