Hey you! I was offered a gig for TRF recently that I think I'm going to take. I'm traveling with a friend, however, and he's still looking for work at TRF. He's a blacksmith by trade, but he's got excellent people skills, good sales and service experience, and a flawless Scottish faire accent to boot! He's got two seasons' booth experience under his belt (three by the time TRF rolls around). Are you still needing sales help? I'm fairly certain he'd jump at the chance. Find him on facebook: Greg MacDonald, or email him: gregmacdee at gmail. Thank you so much for considering me, and for considering my friend. :)

Hey.
I talked to Tim about just that issue the other day, and he's already got someone lined up for this season.

Where did you end up? They might be in our circle. :)

As an alternative, many of the shops that have an online presence put out feelers for employees on their websites, so you might have him check there. I'll also see what I can find out.

I'm working for the Jezzards, selling their amazing hair dohickeys at booth #4 or something right up near the front gate. http://jezzardjewelry.com

I'll keep my ear to the ground and I'll teach Greg how to sniff out his own rennie job, too. Funny, he's technically got more experience than me, but I'm the one who knows how to find the jobs. ;p
