list of base contractors

Restless Blood · 06-19-2003, 02:36 PM

Someone posted something awhile ago stating that there is a building near the base that you can get a list of contractors who are hiring. Or just has their address to send resumes to. Does anyone here know of this and could you tell me what building this is and its location?

thanks...

Also, there is a St. Mary's County Technology Handbook that is published every year and includes names and POCs for all of the local contractors. I think you can get a copy from the Chamber of Commerce.

I've seen that list of contractors, and it lists a few I wouldn't recommed working for. I've worked for several companies over the past 10 years or so that I've been a contractor, and some have been good and others not so good. I don't want to name any here, but if you email me I'll tell you what I think.

In other words go to Damon's at Happy Hour???
Or Northridge . . . . . . . .
Cariblue is right though - knowing someone is the best way to get in around here . . .

You can also check the listing of government contractors on this site and go to their web pages for specific job listings.

Hi Lilly!

You're not around nearly enough anymore.

I know. I have been working. REALLY working! Not like before . . . . . .
Amazing how when you are asked to take over multiple positions at work you don't get paid multiple salaries . . . . . . why is that???

I decided to take a much deserved break and check out the forums but there doesn't seem to be much going on tonight! Everyone must be out imbibing the spirits . . .

Restless, where do you work? I used to live in SoMD and commute to Arlington for 6 months.

I gave up and relocated.

I'm so excited I could mop the kitchen floor again! I can't be still. I've been doing laundry, vacuuming, reorganizing, etc. Just can't sit still. I feel so stupid.

I got rid of the hubby and the kiddos for the evening and I am just enjoying the silence!! Probably SHOULD be doing the chores . . . . but then they would just expect too much of me!!

So what is the fantasy car? Jaguar, Hummer, Classic '69 Mustang??

I am so far out of the loop that I don't even know where I am!!

Good luck bringing her home . . . sounds nice!
