Never looked so carefully at this list before. (Can't remember where i got the list from, must have been Employment Office by the time there still was one in Beaverton.) Some of the pages are printed partially and at an angle. But don't understand why the second job in 96, that where i made 674 dollars was through Olsten since i know for sure i worked at Electronic Specialty through Interim Personnel, on Chkalov drive in Vancouver, WA which later changed its name to Spherion. Corporations games, changing corporation names.
That might explain why they have been so nice to me when i worked at Infocus as an auditor, then a technician, through them again, in the fall of 96 where i quit so i can go and work at Epson for less money, but with my wife so she can work too cause she kept complaining for siting home alone for almost a year back then. In the end, the irony is now she is working and me not for so long.
LOL i remember at Blount why they made me quit. I was working on a milling machine sharpening star(triangle) shaped rotors for mowers. There was a fixture and i was just changing the part and starting the cycle. I didn't understand how many i was supposed to do, but after a few days everybody was kinda angry with me until after about a week i understood why... I was doing double the amount of the other two shifts combined LOL. Same thing happened a few years later at Laughlin through Express, until they ran out of parts and they fired me... A Chinese woman called me a commie! Now i know it was all staged... Some of the coworkers, including my recruiter at Express were celebrities, the woman at Express (i first worked through them in early 96 at Credence) was looking a lot like Stevie Nicks...
LOL at Epson i was working on the world record line, doing frequently more than 500 printers per shift and my wife together with another Romanian, Dragoş Ţăvârlău, from Bucharest were both working on a similar line and doing less the 300..
In 98 i did not work for Softlink (although i've been told that the company was called Softlink before) but i knew the company name was Quadramed. Sir Frances Drake Blvd. In San Fancisco.
By the way, in autumn 97, after being laid off from Credence (Express) - Credence sold that part of the company, service for testers out of fabrication, to a startup in San Francisco, led by the brother of one of the Credence cofounders. I drove 700 miles in 13 hours in a car (white 89 Escort GT) that i bought from Insurance Auto Auction (during that job, summer 96) after being totaled and i fixed it myself, replacing the hood, radiator, a fender, the bumper and the mask. However, there was a problem with the body and every time i was accelerating, it was making a squeaking sound and pulling one way and when i was breaking, the other. And had a broken exhaust and made a terrible noise. My supervisor at Credence, Dino Gipaya from Hawaii was the nicest guy i met. Not like the other one i worked with at AVX. I fixed the exhaust one year after i bought it but in early 98 three months after i was laid off from Les Schwab and working at Credence we rolled over in a ditch (my wife was driving) at one mile near the Ocean and totaled it. Again. LOL.
