Woo! Got my first internship!

[Pigslilspaz]

Got myself a paid internship over this summer! 18/hr! When they told me how much they'd pay me, my jaw dropped. Life is great right now, and now I can be able to afford school next year.

May I inquire as to where?

Im thinking about working (paying internship) at L3 communications.

It's a gas/electric company that works with PG&E. And sorry, all slots are filled up. Anyways, you'd have to move out to California, and where I live 18/hr is below living wage for a college student.

Austal USA in Mobile AL. is looking for help in all departments. I see you are from Florida, so it may or may not be a long haul for you.


Congrats OP!

Here people would kill for 18 an hour, standard working wage in this area is 10 an hour

But we can buy a 3 bedroom house for 75,000 where he would only get a 12 x 12 room.

That is just because Kalifornia is so screwed up.

Austal is from what I have heard a good place to work. I have a buddy that works for them in the purchasing/bean counters department; he said they are going wide open. Especially with the additional ships that the Navy just awarded to them and Lockheed Martin. Austal is stating an expected growth from around 1600 employees to around 4000.

When I did my internship I tested ultrasonic rangefinders.  1 inch at a time.

Detassling corn was more fun.

See that long, sharp, rusty and dirty object in the corner over there....   


I'm going to go poke around the Austal and LM job listings, interesting scoop.

[Melvin]

I've been spending a lot of time at Austal lately, and I am always impressed with their operations and professionalism. If I was in the market for work, they'd be at the top of my "I want to go there" list.

It's a non union shop also.

Good luck gents.
