Been Too Long

FlightSimBoy · 02-21-2012, 09:26 PM

Well, it seems like forever since I've posted here. I haven't even been lurking any recently...

I've noticed a lot of changes around here, most look very good.

Anyway, a little update: I am 24 hours of class work and a standardized test away from legally being allowed to become a coal miner in the state of West Virginia. The class is a horrendous 80 hours, but it's worth it in the end.

It's something that's always intrigued me.. My entire life I've always wanted to more about coal, but now pretty soon, I'll actually be in the coal.

How's everyone else?

Mover over to a more Web orientated role at work, free PHP training included which is always a bonus!

I haven't posted for ageees either, I have got in to an IT course and my GCSE'S are looking good right that's why I haven't been on, too busy revising :P

Hiya FlightSimBoy, how have you been lately?

FlightSimBoy · 03-18-2012, 01:23 AM

Sniper, I sent Consol my resume and coverletter, haven't followed up yet though. Their nearest mine to me is about 4 hours, so I'd have to relocate. But if the offered me a job, I'd go.
