GOEX is hiring

[Brokennock]

One of the higher ups at Estes/Goex has an account on this forum,,, I can't remember his exact position.
Maybe he will chime in.

Don't worry about the skeeters, breaded and deep fried they are really good.

 

[PathfinderNC]

The man is looking for employees, do not ruin his search with stupid comments.

Please grow up!

Folks want powder and this how you treat the only PB manufacturer in the U.S.?

Just how old are you?

Having a bad year?

No hot sauce?

 

[Uncle Miltie]

I looked at the ad. It is dangerous work. I hope they are able to recruit and retain quality people for the compensation they are offering.

The hot sauce is mixed in the egg batter.

IMO and if this information is correct, then it appears as if there may be more BP on the shelves soon. That's good news for sure. We can sure use some GOEX BP here. I hope they can find the employees to fulfill the positions.

As for all of the comments..............its all good. I can promise you that the comments from us old farts will not mean squat, in terms of GOEX business nor the availability of their powder. Most of us are too old to work anyway. But hey, we do help keep Imodium, Viagra, Geritol and Sharman on the shelves.

This job sounds like it would be a blast. I hear there are opportunities to travel.

..... but cajun women's fathers also a little scary....

Do tell.

 

[Lippy984]

I would absolutely do it if I were single and not planted down.
Sounds like a good and fun job opportunity for a younger guy/gal

 

[Matt85]

Would be a neat job!

 

[Will]

Thank you Nameless Hunter.

 

[JoeG]

Do tell.

Well I heard, Mary took to running with a traveling man, left her Mama crying with her head in her hands......

This is down in the swampland, anything goes
It's alligator bait and the bars don't close
It's the real thing down in Louisiana
Did you ever see a Cajun when he really got mad
When he really got trouble like a daughter gone bad
It gets real hot down in Louisiana
The stranger better move it or he's gonna get killed
He's gonna have to get it or a shotgun will
It ain't no time for lengthy speeches
There ain't no time for lengthy speeches......


That is just what I heard though. I hope it doesn't rile anyone up.

Absolutely outstanding that the CEO of Estes/Goex is on this site, hats off to you Karl!

 

[nchawkeye]

Plenty of workers coming in from down south, sounds like an opportunity to put them to work...

Indeed
Hopefully the folks in that town and surrounding area who would like to resume their jobs we be able to do so...

If I was young I would have jumped at the chance to work there. I think it would have been a great job for me. I was a huge muzzleloader fan back then.

Me too! I believe it will be tough. There are far less dangerous, and physical, jobs out there that pay similarly, albeit without the benefits package which isn't shabby.

They're also looking for an engineer.

 

[Tenring]

Doesn’t sound like a bad job for someone just starting out and needs employment. If I were a young man right out of school and had no prospects and lived In Louisiana I think I would have applied.

For all you enthusiasts looking for employee discounts...

Estes Energetics is searching for Production Workers at our Goex black powder manufacturing facility on Camp Minden in Minden, Louisiana. The Production Worker performs manual production tasks, including tending to and running production machines, moving material, preparing packaging material, and packaging finished product.

This job requires working with explosives. You will be required to dress out in work-specific clothes issued to you by the company and shower at the end of each working day. The work environment is partly outdoors. Teamwork is especially important here in all aspects of the job as we strive for safety.

Good Luck my friend, and I mean that sincerely! Hope you are successful!
I don’t think I’m careful enough for the job.
