Got the axe today along with a gaggle of fellow employees at Halliburton. I could see the train wreck a mile away before it happened. :sad: Oh well, anyone need some work done? I have plenty of spare time and work cheap. :lol:

Hallliburton is still in a downturn.
I don't have experience in the field, I'm a manufacturing engineer/programmer.
That sucks sorry to hear that Greg
That sucks bro. My wife is out of work for the next two months, its going to be tough around our place too. Looks like my mustang is on the chopping block.
Sorry to hear that Greg...:(
Effin A man. That sucks Greg. Sorry to hear that.
I didn't think you had experience in the field. Check em out anyways I know they've been hiring out of dallas for all types of engineers.
Land on your feet please Greg. Try west a few miles, there's your type of industry there.
Sorry bout the job Greg. Remember though, when one door closes another opens. Im sure you will bounce back. Good luck!!!
Thats what I am seeing as well...I'm also in the oil and gas industry...A friend of mine does alot of machining for halliburton and they just gave him a bunch of work.Quote:

Sorry to hear about that. Contract work for the government is usually a little more stable if you are willing to look. Check out websites for these companies and you might just find something that you are looking for. Im a Systems Analyst Senior Professional down in Fort Hood. Basically just a computer geek that teaches, builds and works on 17 servers for the military. They are not limited to the computer field though. They take people for technical fields, mechanics, staff workers, etc.
Computer Sciences Corporation
ESP
Lockheed Martin
Northrup Grumman
Raytheon
Telesis
US Falcon
ILEX
L3 Communications
Boeing
Newtech
Tech Systems
Tapestry Solutions
Management Technologies
Suntech
Future Skies
Mitre
You can also check on the cpol.army.mil website as well.
The only downfall is traveling when needed in other areas but the pay is outstanding.
thanks, may have to check them out. I saw an ad for an IT professional for Ft Hood. Quite the commute from Denton. LOL
There should be something out there alot closer, most companies will pay for your commute also.Quote:

Good luck Greg let us know how it goes
Sucks to hear about your job loss. I was laid off Nov 4th, 2009 (IT support guy). I just accepted a position at the state for an IT guy. Its crazy job searching, when it rains it pours with interviews...at least that's what happened with me anyways.
Thanks, going for 2nd interview at Bell Helicopter Monday. The jobs that require gov't clearance are such a PITA.
Bell Helicopter sounds promising but no replies back so far.
L3 Communications, had a 2nd interview with them Monday, met all the guys I'd be working with and spent a couple hours with the interview and baffled them with my b.s. Waiting on a money offer now.
Friday, I have an interview at mother Halliburton in Conroe doing the same thing I did in Carrollton. :thumb:
