Would probably help if you posted what you are looking for? Are you looking for mechanics work? Sales or Customer Service?

Matt D, given your areas of strength; transportation, customer service, managing, marine (crazy), and the fact that you are hung like a horse, I took the liberty of typing in the above strengths into this Career Aptitude Tests and it concluded that collecting horse sperm using your own reproductive organs is the right job for you!

To the original poster, I've heard of stories where people go into Tire places to put in fresh air in the tires? Is that really true??

Looking for a job here as well. I need to find something closer to home due to road construction creating a commute from hell.

I'm looking for something in the near-north chicago 'burbs.

I've got about 4 years of department head/supervisory experiance in a distrubution operations setting, pharma industry (working for the nation's 3rd largest wholesale generic phamra manufacturer/distributor). Besides my current department head position, I have also held positions for this company as a Quality Assurance inspector, and an in-transit theft/loss investigator. In addition, I have experiance with a host of business systems (most notably SAP), I have DEA clearance, and I am a trained and certified forklift operator.

Although my dick is only slightly larger than average, I have decently large and very shapely biceps, if that helps any.

Ever use JD Edwards, BPIX, or Procomm?

SAP is great once you understand the custom processes created for your specific company, but there are so many system transactions that do *almost* the same thing, it's often hard to get everyone on the same page when trying to coordinate between multiple facilities.

No, never tried them. Those are the only ones we use. Oracle can be very archaic at times, but then again so is our AS400/RF system we use...

LOL! I know what you mean. Our RF equpitment is getting so old that Symbol no longer makes replacement parts. We should be upgrading soon.
