I work for StandardAero which is headquartered in Scottsdale. We have a big site with 1,200 employees in Winnipeg. Get a job there and maybe we can get you transferred south.

I know Standard Aero quite well. I'm recently retired but the company I worked for supplied them industrial gases and related equipment.

I know, your next question is why the hell did I retire in Winnipeg. All I can say is, it is my home. I was down in the Phoenix area last March visiting my sister who spends 5 months a year in Mesa. She loves it down there.

You need to stay with your sister more. I been to Winnipeg in winter and for me it's brutal. I am spoiled having never lived with a real winter living in California and Arizona all my life.

If you want to work againI know the guy that handles the H1B visas.

Slowly but surely

I've only had my Boxster for about 2 months. I cleaned it, waxed it, upgraded the stereo (about to redo the entire sound system), replaced headlights and tail lights, replace wheel center caps, replace all trunk lifts, about to install mesh headrest inserts and paint rotors, added etched glass decal and valve stems, about to add rear diffusers/splitters....I love this car and by the Summer of 2016 I expect to have one of the best ones on the road!!
