Most of the work is done at quarries where we have permanent seismographs setup. You drive to each location, download the seismographs, print out the reports, talk with the plant manager or pit forman, Leave go to the next location. Or you may have to setup a seismograph at a neighbor complaint house, so you'll have to be there when they actually shoot. Or if you are doing construction work, then you may have to do a preblast survey, take photos of exisiting cracks in homes where they are blasting nearby, then you will have to setup seismograph at the home when they shoot. We have an office in Winchester, Va, but we all work out of our homes and our vehicles, so it doesn't matter where you live. Territory includes: VA-Lorton, Leesburg, Manassas, Warrenton, Culpeper, Bealeton, Stafford, MD-Williamsport, Boonsboro, Rockville WV-Charles Town (1 quarry) PA-Hanover (1 quarry) |

Some of the other fringe benefits include Free DSL at home, Free Cell Phone, Free $300 GPS Garmin Legend C, Free Laptop & Printer, any cool Tech Item that you can call a work expense (I currently have the National Broadband Access card so I can have internet in my truck). I'm gathering emails from interested people, and will be contacting them shortly. Plus you get to pretty much work alone all day long out of your car. No office to report to, work at different locations daily, |
No kidding.... that'd be sweet, but like LRT said, it'd be a paycut.... plus my clearances are current, and 'the powers that be' have shut down processing new ones (money squabbles), so they're worth keeping..... Sounds like a good chance for any of you guys starting out, or wanting to switch careers
