Job opening in NHC

#1 Postby MGC » Wed Jun 25, 2008 8:40 pm

NOAA is seeking qualified applicants for the position of Hurricane Specialist in Miami. I wonder if someone has retired. Job closes 7/8/08 with a salery range of $81,739 to $106,266. Some serious coin. Guess I need to update my resume. You can check out at http://www.usajobs.gov.....MGC

I'm applying right now.

I'm putting on my experience that I read every post on Storm2k Talkin' Tropics.

I'm a shoe-in!!!!

Boy do I wish, but my credentials are not high enough to kiss a forecasters or Hurricane Specialist at the nhc shoes. Hell, I only have the credentials to clean floors of the nhc. Maybe not even that!

These people are super smart and god like as far as I'm concerned.

I would likely get arrested if I shown them my resume.

I noticed that a few days ago. Has she moved somewhere else within NOAA?

A telegenic female with real met experience could make big bucks at CNN or TWC or some other network.


Not saying that is what happened.

Michelle (I never knew her, incidentially) is still with the agency, just at another facility outside this region...

Some (or many) move down here from up north, and, find Miami's very tropical lifestyle just too different for their taste, so, after a year or two they decide to move on to a place where they feel more comfortable...
