hiring in Kansas City

[supertek65]

hey guys,
it looks like we will be hiring 3-4 experienced journeyman in the Spring if we can cover all the work until then.
We are growing and have a lot of projects going on.
If you know any HVAC mechanics/pipe fitters with at least 8 years commercial experience, drug free with good driving record that can pass a background check?
let me know, I will forward any resumes to my boss.
That is all i can do, but it could be a great opportunity for somebody if the boss likes your resume?
must be honest, hard working with excellent work habits and work ethics.
good paper work is a plus!

thanx,

Frank

If you don't mind what exactly is a Union merit shop? Some on here think that you can't be both.

[supertek65]

LOL!


Robo says non union shops are referred to as merit shops.

ofcourse they gave themselves that title.

it gives the appearance that a union shop pays lazy do nothings the same pay as a good guy.

and that a non union shop rewards their guys for doing a good job!

I feel that my shop rewards guys that do a good job and immediately fires guys that aren't.

ofcourse while meeting the minimum requirements set by the union contract.

so I believe I work for a union merit shop.:cheers:

just my opinion.

If I'm bad, I won't be around! Unitary Service Technician III (Tradesman 3) shouldn't exceed 7.5% callback.

[supertek65]

Wow, I'm only allowed 2.5%

What's the deal Frank? Can't they just clone you and have 3 more superteks???? :LOL:

[supertek65]

:bump:

They cant afford that.
Plus i would not get along with me!!!!!!!:bump:

[prounionelp]

I believe the bracket's between 7.5 to 15.

[chuckcrj]

What do you mean?

[prounionelp]

NTE 15% callback, it's something like that.

[chuckcrj]

NTE 15% callback, it's something like that.

That seems extremely high, you would have to be drunk to get that bad! I can't have more than 2.5%.

[monkeyman#1]

Hmmmmm, no takers? Sounds like a great opportunity Frank. Unfortunately, I am prolly gonna be retiring in about 5 years and don't think I would make the move. Although hangin out at your adult beverage location might make it all worthwhile!!!!:cheers:

[ryan1088]

Offer letters are going out sometime in the next 2 days for us so we should know something soon on me. Do you guys have any work comin up on base??

[Tech Rob]

Frank, it seems like you work for a really good company. They are hard to find these days. Good luck. I'm sure you shouldn't have any probs. finding some qualified techs.

To the guys discussing callbacks:

In a year with 2080 standard working hours, a 2.5% callback rate would mean you're spending an average of 52 hours a year going back on stuff you should have fixed right the first time. If I spend 5 hours going back on something, it raises eyebrows in my office. If I got anywhere near 7.5%, I'd probably be out of a job.

[prounionelp]

I'll get more info on it. It's somewhat complicated, there's a formula for the Christmas bonus based on callback percentage & other factors. Also non-billable paid rework time is considered our callbacks. If you can eat the time yourself it's a little bit of a break. A Unitary ST III (Tradesman 3) is allowed less callback than a Unitary ST II (Tradesman 2) and allowed more than a Commercial ST IV (Serviceman) would.

[supertek65]

thanks for the kind words Rob!!!!!!!!!!!:putergreet:

[timebuilder]

You let me know, Frankie, and that little US Mail truck will come bouncing over those RR tracks with a package for your boss!!!!

[prounionelp]

OK, here it goes. If you're the proposed Engineered ST V - Chiller Systems, your Christmas bonus could be as high as 10%. Remember some of the contributing factors are callbacks, gross profit, write-ups & a cap on the bonus of 2,000 straight time hours. We'll only factor for callback deduction, @ minus 2.5%. I believe that's the max for that Level. $88,100/yr for 2,000 hours, (10% - 2.5% = 7.5%), the bonus would be $6,607.50, remember gross profit, write-ups, etc., have not been factored.

[supertek65]

i would say that is CLEARLY based on merit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:cheers:

[prounionelp]

Meet your gross profit, don't have any write-ups, keep your call backs low, no accidents, etc. = A great Christmas! :grin2:

[John Markl]

Our goal has always been 5%.

One call-back in 20 calls.

[Tech Rob]

Hypothetically speaking, one callback in 20 calls is not necessarily 5%. What if you run 20 calls averaging 2 billable hours a piece, and then have 1 callback that takes 40 unbillable hours to resolve because someone really screwed up?

[flange]

if I send you a copy of my union card does that qualify as a resume' ? I am sure my current boss would give me a good recommendation...

[supertek65]

no resume needed John!!!!!!!
I will send you a plane ticket tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:CU:

Goal? Does that mean you regularly run over that? ;)

What I expect of myself, and what I've learned to expect from others are two different things these days...:whistle:

[Bubbleheadski]

Frankay. my lil pond is the mighty atlantic........... however my wife and I have been discussing relocation. Typically though we were trying to get our youngest through to graduation in june. I do have some doubts about my own ability now that you guys have pointed out about callbacks and my own lack of exoerience on that big ol pump stuff!
Hats off to ya brother..... when ya want to retire and teaach me a thing or two.... let me know! I will be there in a heartbeat and we can learn thru lessons at the hilltop!
