Industrial Arts Instructor Wanted-Pasadena Californiaq

Sep 08, 2005 12 Replies

Ive been asked to take a position as an Industrial Arts instructor at a Pasadena California highschool. A position that Im afraid will strongly interfer with my normal (and increasing) business. The district is desperate.



Anyone interested? 2 periods a day and one night class. $50 per hour IRRC, Teaching credential NOT needed.

You just can't fit it in? It's the opportunity to mold young minds, maybe prevent a cliff or two..

A Gunner prevents a cliff? Ummm ... ah! by bad example.

This is the chance of a lifetime Guns... Don't pass it up. I spent six years in college and I still can't teach. And I WANT TO! Don't let this pass you up. Reconsider this one man...

That is more like saying AIDs prevents VD.

I taught JR College for 11 years - Electronics from math to uP programming. Mostly in the upper levels due to my background and ability. Just to far from Pasadena.

Details...

1pm-3pm M-F

2 hours Mon and Wed night when they open the shop to the public and to other students.

15-18 per week, $30-35 hr

Part time, which I assume means no bennies.

Its 35 miles each way from my RV in Pomona, 120 miles from my home.

Based on costs..this is a non starter for me. So Ive called every one in my Curmudons List..all older machinists or machine shop owners, gave em the pitch and several have indicated interest and will be contacting the schools contact person.

Ive also recently become associated with a fabrication company as a independant field service tech/contractor.

Cool! I guess I need to bug you instead of buying a new Piranha or Scotty-press now? How may beers per press ton ratio?

Chuckle....Ive not had a chance to network deep yet...but I already know of a couple iron workers, a couple Di-Acro fingerbrakes and so forth that are cheap enough....

Btw...LB is in the service area
