Greg, That has nothing to do with Contract welders. The ones they laid off were people that missed alot or built trailers, which they are trying to get away from in order to build rigs. I get my info from the owners of Loadcraft, directly, not a rumor from the shop or someone who does or used to work there. Greg remember this, I am well aware of who your friend is there and where you get your info. He is the same guy that ask me to hire you. Now, ask him how he found out I was coming in there for the last rig. He found out the day I showed up. I had been flying down there on Loadcrafts plane every week for 3 months. Also remember what I told you on the job one day awhile back. Sometimes it is in your best interest not to tell everything you know or ask the wrong people questions. It could cause you greater problems in the long run. As for Loadcraft, Let me do my job. And when it is time , you can do your job. If you want to email me a question send it to Cactus.Jack@loadcraft.com. Imagine that, I have Loadcraft email. Guess I didnt get laid off
