Looking For Metal Stud Framers / Drywallers


Trying to set up traveling crews of metal stud framers. Applicants would have required traveling to the Northern and Southeastern US for work on projects. Projects range from 1 - 6+ months in duration. Must have own hand tools and be truly experienced in metal framing and drywall applications. Pay ranges from $10-13 per hour for 50 hours per week, per diem, housing paid. We are an EEO employer. Please send your information to btumey@msiwork.com. Look forward to helping put some people back to work.

This traveling circus you are starting. Is it part of Beatty brothers or Ringling?
And do you supply the Meth? Have we seen any of your current crew on Americas most wanted? or unsolved? Cold case files?

Just for perspective, 10-13 an hour was what I got back in 1975 for pre title work

$10-13 per hour! Wahoo, a person could almost pay their rent for that kinda cash. And you provide per diem and travel... big whoopdy-fricken-doo! Do you also provide the crack and smack for your prospective "team" as well? Back in 92 I started at $12/hr as a completely green apprentice and you're looking for what?... experience? What a ****ing joke pal... you from Somalia or something because a true blue framer wouldn't even roll out of bed for less than $20. Hell, all I have to do is strap my tbar tools on and I'm guaranteed no less than $75/hr. Grab some reality.
