Well you won't HAVE to go....

I'm working late here in Atlanta and I just heard a radio ad for KBR-- they're having a job fair on Saturday here for openings for all sorts of positions wth "immediate interviews for qualified applicants". I was only half paying attention to the radio until I heard "KBR". Kellogg Brown & Root is the Halliburton subsidary that staffs up the contractors to drive trucks and sling hash.

Good article is yesterday's Times about the desperate souls driving trucks for KBR over in Iraq. http://www.nytimes.com/2004/09/27/international/middleeast/27convoy.html

I'm tempted to cruise down there on Saturday, if only to ask them if they're covered by worker's comp. :o)
