Electrician in need of office or light duty job. (Cola)
Date: 2012-10-02, 7:19PM EDT
*****************@***.***
I am an Electrician who is in desperate need of an office or supervisor job. I have 20+ years in the trade. I was the sole provider for my family which consists of 5 children (ages 3-12), my wife, and myself. I was in a motorcycle accident on May 26, 2012 and broke my knee in 15 places. There is no income coming into my home now, I can not collect unemployment because of my knee. I am currently under a doctors care and currently waiting a surgery date to fix my knee. I may be physically limited right now but I still have my years of knowledge in the trade to help me. Please put yourself in my shoes and you will see what I am up against right now. There is no one to help me right now and I really need a job of some sort to keep from losing my home and having my family out on the streets. Please take the time to at least read my resume and thank you for your time.
