Default Matthews NC?

Anyone from there? I want to relocate there but I need a good company to work for in the area.

I'm an electronics tech with excellent trouble shooting skills. Currently work with high freq(2GHZ) RF boards. LMK if you know of anything. I will consider anything in manfacturing making 35K or close to it.
Thanks
Jay

Don't give them a reason and they usually won't mess with you.

Matthews is right outside of Charlotte.

OP - I can't help you, I'm sorry. Good luck! I know you'll love the area.

Honestly, i have found Matthews cops are ******** compared to Charlotte cops. Matthews cops will follow you for no reason, run your plate, etc. They will literally make u-turns just to follow you...or me at least. They've done that with every car i've ever had, though, not just this one. Charlotte cops really don't bother you at all unless you are driving crazy or going around 15mph over or more.

I have 2.5% tint and haven't gotten pulled for that yet, though, so Matthews cops aren't THAT bad.

No, i go to Mineral Springs and Waxhaw about once every two weeks. I have only been to Midland once in my life and it was in my S2000 about a year ago. Next time you see this imposter, tell him to stop copying my style!!!
