    you must not be looking in the same places i am. the greeley tribune, Craig's List and Coloradoan all have multiple listings for wrenches in the NoCo area. All it takes is some time browsing the web. OR go to the job service off O street in greeley by the lic plate office.

    I have always found I can, if I want to, get a job as a wrench pretty quick. Not always a good job, but a job.

    I work here. Office is on 1st ave in Greeley. I will remain anonymous but there are plenty of opportunities with this company if you're looking for anything in the oil field.

    If you are looking for wrenching duties, the frac crews around weld county might be looking for a mechanic....

    calfrac? in platteville is always looking for good wrenches. Downside, as with a fair amount of roughneck companies, they have a decent amount of ex felons on the payroll. Not that there is anything wrong with that as everyone deserves a second (only) chance. However i know a wrench down there and he always locks his tools up when not in the area.

    Again you must not be looking in the right place,or have enough time / experience for some companies .
    The downside to job hunting in todays world of e-m or fax your resume is not having that actual contact between employer and potential new hire. I am old school and always went looking for a job at the place that was hiring, not online. FTF contact gives the employer a look at you, feel for your sincerity in wanting to work and as always a good handshake before and after the interview. When i went back into the job hunting pool it became very depressing not knowing if the job even looked at your CV, disregarded it due to age, etc.

    I agree Jim. Even being a young guy myself, I HATE online applications. I've applied for a good amount of jobs, but like you said i don't even know if they look at my application or resume. Most of them i never hear back from. The ones i have heard back say i dont have enough experience (most want 5+ years) or they say i have too much experience to start at the bottom. Frustrating doesnt even begin to describe it...

    Here is a lead I saw on another forum, not really in your area but you never know what might work out..
    If your interested and not a member of that forum I can PM the OP for you and get a #.

    Experience needed, would like to see 4 yrs in compression experience. Must have an awsome attitude and high caliber of dependability amongst your co-workers. We have a good time here and its very rare we have openings in Durango.

    If you have experience with Cat 3516, 3306, 3304, Waukesha, Arrow engines, or Aerial recips, and want to live in and be able to afford Durango, PM me and I can give you details.

    You can pretty much be set for life with this company.
