Wal-Mart or Home Depot As Employers
Anyone want to share their experience with either of them? I'll keep it confidential if you prefer. I'm looking at the prospect of hitting them up for full-time work shortly. The pay's lousy (not much better than unemployment), but at least as a full-time employee, I would get health insurance.
UPDATE: It appears that I will be contracting in Bend for the forseeable future, four days a week. The rate's not spectacular, but even after paying for lodging, travel, and meals, it's a giant step up from Home Depot or Wal-Mart. I'm glad that gas is dropping in price. And I'll have paid experience in C#/.NET as a result--so that my 30 years of software engineering experience will again be worth more than a cup of coffee.
UPDATE 2: Motel 6 looks to be the cheapest place to stay in town. Once I've been there a week or two, and I'm sure that this isn't just a flash in the pan, I'll probably look for a room to rent--it is considerably cheaper than staying in a motel all the time.
