Hey shovelbums,
This is the summary of all jobs that came through the shovelbums
list for May. If you are not already using it, and if your mailbox has
too many messages as it is, don't forget you can send the message
shovelbums-digest@...
to switch you account status to digest mode.
If you are going into the field for the summer and do not want your
mailbox getting cluttered then log onto and set
your account status to "no mail", instead of unsubscribing. This way you
can still access the archives at your discretion but will not receive
e-mail from the list. When you return, just log back on and switch your
account to "mail". I have a request into onelist to have this feature be
availble by e-mail but it is not enabled yet.
If you are new to the field business and the jobs listed below do not fit
into your region then I encourage you to make use of Kris Hirst's
excellent resources availible at:
Thanks for spreading the word about this list and to the professors who
are subscribe to keep their students informed. The list size is slowly
growing, at last count we had 280 company reps, professors, and
shovelubums. The signups leveled off when I had to start
working on finals and my thesis and was only able to advertise the list
to about half the universities in the country, hence the regional
variation in job postings :) If you are in the field or at school I
encourage you to post this list and show your
webless friends how they can setup an e-mail account at any of those free
services such as Yahoo/Juno/Hotmail and sign up to find out where the
jobs are!
As always shovelbums@... is a postings only list. Please send
any questions or comments to me personally at shovelbum_rjoe@...
but not to the list (note the iname.com not onelist.com address, this
will be rectified when I get the shovelbums domain set up).
I would also like to hear from those of you who have A: found jobs
through the list, or B: found employees through this list.
The June issue of work listing summaries will not be out until mid-July
as I have to go to Ecuador for some geophysical work at the end of the
month and get some page proofs back to my editor.
Now onto the jobs! Please print and post where possible.
