I quit my job at the shitty autowreckers because everytime I went to work I had physical altercations with the new worker. So, I had a new job lined up. Went to talk to them monday and now I still haven't gotten a call back.

I require $15/hr and up.
I have experience in pretty much everything, i'll list a few though to anybody who is looking

I'm an all around type of guy, just looking for a good work place with great management and coworkers, and a reason to show up on time. I hate "having" to go to work, I would rather wake up and "get" to go to work!. If anybody has something open that is pretty open as far as qualifications go, please let me know and I'll give you a resume.

I suggest editing out the "physical altercations" part. Not exactly a quality employers are looking for in a prospective employee.

Well, my physical altercations were his fault. He thought he ran the show and started fights. Who am I to let some little 30 year old piece of trailer trash push me around :P
