Nighthawk Introduction - Page 39

Thanks. It really was fun, but also exhausting.

When I was in the chat room, I completely lost the forum. I couldn't even connect to it for over an hour. I never figured out what happened, and finally gave up and went to bed.

Speaking of "Fundamentalists" ....

The Deep Doctrine board is heating up once again. Will I have to live up to my title?

Introduction Nighthawk

Yes it is, LDS_forever has one piece to add, but has not gotten around to it. Speaking about living up to 'title' I guess you no longer meet the status quo in the Arcade, but I will leave that for the Arcade Rants thread... my sympathies.

Welcome back, Nighthawk, and congratulations on a successful trip -- and what a wonderful experience to witness for your daughter's sealing!

You drove 36 hours straight, with only 8 hours' sleep? Are you nutty? Don't answer that -- I drove 455 miles on Saturday in 7 hours

Glad to have you back, my friend, and apparently "rarin' to go" on some of our hot topics.

My friend of controversy and enlightenment, how are you? Last thing I remembered you were looking to move to the West, right? Is that taking fruit? Have you been able to secure work? Thanks for checking in here while I was gone. All the best.

Introduction Nighthawk

In general, I am doing well.

I went out for the job interview, and thought it went extremely well. They commented that they never got anyone to interview who already knew gear manufacturing. Yet I understood everything about their processes, and was even familiar with the steel that they use.

In the end, they "chose not to move forward with my employment". They gave some pretty weak reasons.

I can only come up with two probable reasons.
1. They need a "token" hispanic, black, or female engineer.

2. They don't want an active Mormon working there. I had met their Quality Manager a few years ago, as his son was in our ward here. He no longer works there, and they didn't really explain why he left, and were very vague about what he was up to. I know that there aren't very many other facilities out there that make gears of any sort, and people who are in gear manufacturing are in short supply everywhere.

So, no moving for now.

We will probably try to move ourselves out there next spring, after my wife finishes school (she has 3 more classes after this semester to get her B.S.).

Anyway, we are still hanging around here. And, yes, I stop by the forum at least a couple of times each day. I just don't have anything much to say these days.

Nighthawk Introduction

From my recent study of Church history from a different perspective I have found that many members were persecuted financially / in their work due to their religion, so it still exists, it is just amazing that a place like Utah would have this existing. However, your wife's achievement is a blessing and with your talents and experience you will fit in somewhere else I am sure. All the best.

Hi Nighthawk. I am deeply convinced that everything is for a reason. I wish you and your family all the best. I know you all want to move to Utah (who would not want to?! *smile* ). I hope you all may be able to accomplish it soon. Greetings to all and God's blessings to all of you.

Nighthawk, so what is the update, are you going to be moving across the plains like a pioneer or as a king?
