The economy may be down, but Reed Painting Company (MyWallingford sponsor) is growing. “Our work load has increased tremendously and we are in need of hiring a few great people to add to our team,” Cole Palea with Reed Painting tells us.
They are holding a job fair this Saturday from 10 to 11:30 a.m. to hire for various positions from trainees to painters. Those interested in showing off their skills can stop by the shop (3668 Albion Pl N.) Applicants will be asked to perform a skills test which could include everything from folding a drop cloth to painting a wall, door or trim piece, depending on the position you’re applying for.
Breakfast is on Reed, so come hungry. They’re serving up bacon and eggs. More information on the job fair can be found here (.pdf.)
This will be an opportunity to painters out there and of course to those people who are eager to learn. To those interested, they should not miss this job fair because this is now their chance to prove their skills and talents.
Hopefully they will teach the painters not to paint in direct sunlight, which is a no-no unless you want the paint to bubble later. I saw a REED painter on Phinney doing that a couple weeks ago.
Bacon and eggs? That's almost worth hopping on a plane from Perth to come and get!
