Help for a friend.

Hey guys get with it! He should get into computers, or become a real estate investor.

A friend of mine is getting married to a guy she met in England. He calls himself a pipefitter. His job titles were: (1) Subsea Mechanical Engineer (in which he built, installed, and maintained subsea connectors for offshore well heads for global markets,etc.); and (2) Senior Weapons Commissioning Engineer/Supervisor (for Vickers for 21 years). Any thoughts on how to transfer these qualifications to the US? I mean, unless your a PEng your probably not supervising installations of nuclear engines in Submarines are you? His qualifications were gained through apprenticeship. His location will be in Birmingham Alabama.

Old Mobile Bay ....

Isn't that still on the map? Maybe Katrina did more damage than I thought..
I believe they still build quite a few shrimp boats down there. They also get lots of work from boatbuilders in the Northeast now, as the labor is quite a bit less down that way. Chris

They still don't care for YANKS down there......................

let alone a LIMEY. NAHHHHH Things have gotten a bit better. Look, there is always a job and place for a fine fitter. I know there are some big nuke station and hyrodams down yonder. He'll find work. Mad Dog
