Don't really know, I have asked that in my reply back to him but it doesn't affect me as I am a U.S. citizen.

Bullet points. As mentioned by him before food and travel paid for. Accommodation is 2 bed appts. with 4 sharing in New Jersey. All tools provided. You will have a return ticket that can be changed at anytime if you don't fancy the job. Paid every 2 weeks. You will be expected to do 60 mtrs a week, 60x60 porcolin walls and floors with continuos lines with mosaic in shower floor to a high standard, no windows to cut around. 5 day week with weekends off ( I have asked for clarification on that because I want to work 7 days). Start 16th May.

I have done a bit of digging and his company does do a lot of work in the States so he must know the angles. I am guessing that because you are going on an ESTA and caring no tools you will be the one taking the risk. Of course if you have any sort of criminal conviction you won't get an ESTA

It depends what we went inside for.

Firearms or drug offences are a big no no when is comes to US visas, other offences are treated individually.

No one looks at the application, it's all done electronically, so all applications are treated the same.
if you have been convicted of a crime of moral impertuity ( basically anything other than a speeding offence you must answer yes to the question). You will not be granted an ESTA.
Now you can of course apply for a visa instead and you will then get a personal interview, but the time and cost would probably be prohibitive

If you ever get a chance go & see him,
He introduced me to a young boy years ago & told me that he was the next up & coming, he was correct, it was a young Kevin Bridges.

Fine on my phone TJ, not sure what's going on.

 

[aytiling]

I for one wont be going. Had a chat with the guy and you can only work 5 days 7am-4pm. Not good enough for me. I need to be doing 6-7 days 12 hours. Don't want to spend my time hanging around spending money when I should be out there making it.

 

[Time's Ran Out]

Sounds like a good gig to me, 9hour day, 2mts /hour, that's 5.5 No 60x60 tiles laid perfectly, = 18mts a day = £396.00 per day = £1960 a week paid every 2 weeks.
Then it's sleep or Broadway!

 

[nybor62]

im sure the work hrs , could be extended , i hope so

 

[aytiling]

Nope, he was quite adamant on that. Site rules are no weekends or working after 4pm

 

[nybor62]

i here ya we will just have to see,paul has just emailed me , saying he hope hrs will change once it gets started , all prep work will be done with cement boards and water proofing, all tiles and addy will be on the floors were you are working
