Thanks for all the responses everyone.
If i want the job, i have to complete training toward a license - i have been in class all morning and have an opportunity to type this while im out to lunch. hence my absence from the thread.

Thanks! from the sounds of the unpredictability of scheduling and the length of time away from home, it sounds a lot like what i'll be experiencing with this job.
My friend who is on a job site right now has been there for 25 days now, and has not come home since the project started. he expects to be there about 60 days... but 90 days is probable. he says when they release him it might be 6 days or 6 months before he gets another project. so the schedule is really unpredictable, but he said i could count on $800 to $1,000 per day once i get all my on the job training done and am no longer a newbie.
again everyone, thanks for the well wishes. time to grab some food and get back to it.
