Thanks again guys. My aim is to work with the company / firm that is willing to hire me. I a not interested in being a closed entity. I put a lot of effort into my work and most always receive compliments on my work. I always make certain to be a team player and work with the individuals on...

Thanks for your help. It sure seems difficult to even get people to consider you. I had one firm interested, but as soon as they knew I was not going to work in their office the negotiations ended.

Thanks for your concerns about me being legally able to perform my occupation in certain states and places. Please rest assured that I understand the laws and do not offer any service where I am breaking the law. I am currently trying to focus on my local market. I am not sure I have saturated...

Thanks for your help guys! I will look at and take on your suggestions/comments. I was also wondering if a website (a good quality one) would help? At the moment I am just sending out e-mails with my resume. I do have several references already and could send out some examples of my work too...

I forgot to add that I am have been marketing myself all around the Country as well as a few overseas places with the intent to work out of my own office. I think this seems to put people off for some reason. Not sure why as I have completed designs quite adequately without ever having set foot...

Hi, I am keen to market myself to MEP Firms as a Freelance HVAC Engineer. So far, I have just e-mailed out my resume and a cover note. With the resume and cover note, I kept things simple and to the point. However, I am not having much success in Firms taking me up on the offer. Several people...

Thanks for your encouraging post Brandon. It sure is nice to hear another professional's experience. By the way, your website is very well done and made me take notice. Thanks.

Hi, I run my own small business from home. It is a HVAC design and Drafting business. Our services range from design work, through to actual shop drawings for commercial and industrial projects. While this is a wonderful scenario and do feel very blessed, it does at times leave me feeling...

Oh and here is a typical layout that I would designhttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=27605bee-0d62-4435-9f1d-22bbbf72c74c&file=Drawing.dwg

I have a couple of HVAC lisp programs. They are awesome, but I need to modify them in order to have the lisp create to our standards. Are there any good lisp programmers that could have a look at the lisp I have and help me modify it? I am not very skilled at lisp and really need some help...

Oh, I should clarify that I only need this in 2D. Thanks again

Does anyone know of any good metric lisp routines for the following; Flexible connections Flexible ducting Ductwork I draft up my own designs and would like to speed up the drafting process where possible. I need to have it all in metric if possible. Thanks.

Here is the update... I told my Supervisor (who is taking over the business with 3 others) on Monday. It was a somber meeting. He was quite sad about it, but took it well. I told him I was devastated and it was in no way my choice to go. I actually laid it all out there and for most of the...

Thanks for the well wishes. I am going to tell them. Either Monday or Tuesday. I have no intention of leaving them before January 23rd. I am even open to flying back here if they need me to. I am really going to leave a lot of it up to them and will do whatever I can to help them. They are...

I may not have indicated this, but the Firm I work for is a small Firm with no branch offices. It is just a small group here and we all get along very well... I was wondering... Is there a way to put to them that I will need to work remotely as a result of my family needing to return to...

Thanks guys... I guess I just feel bad. They have thought all along that everything is going fine. Now all of a sudden I am resigning. Granted, things only really came to a crunch 3-4 weeks ago on the home front. Until then I thought there was hope and negotiation. The office is in a huge panic...

I am sitting here at the end of my lunch break trying to get ready for the news I am going to break to my Supervisor. I plan to do this either Thursday or Friday this week. Before I do, does this sound like the best time? This is a very hard thing to do and it is going to take a lot to psych...

Hokie66; Ah, Brissie (Brisbane)... That is my old home town. As of this time, we have tried the USA thing twice and it has just not worked for my wife. International moving can really take it out of you, so I am glad it worked well for you. Thanks,

Ok, I think I am going to break the news to the Firm this week. My wife leaves soon, house is mostly all packed up and I just feel like I am being dishonest and ripping them off. I am not totally sure that my timing is right, but at the end of the day I want to be ethical and upfront with the...
