8/ 2019 - 12 / 2019 TRADEMAX INC. Temporary for HARDY CORP. INC., Alabama Federal Court House, Charlotte, NC

Pipe Fitter/ Welder, prevalent wage 28hr.i

First impressions of hardy were good and was excited to possibly turn this into a career. Unfortunately I was very with my dec and started to become unhappy.

Hardy decided to use victolic pipe for all the runs leaving only the risers through the 8 floors and air handler connections to be the only weld pipe to install for this job therefore a true fitter and welder are only temporarily needed, anybody íocks can install victolic gruv pipe. So I did the risers as well as I could, givin hardys almost impossible ways of managing and lack of material and tools. Eventually things happened that lead to disagreement and I was asked to leave. I honestly feel wronged in some ways and others agreed but being a right to work state they need no reason at all to let me go. Id much rather just have a job that I can call mine, one I can give my loyalty to. And grow with.
