Hey:

I'm looking for someone to do grunt work here at the pottery. Mainly a
lotta help with clay mixing and other ergonomically challenging areas. The
pay will be minimum wage at first but I appreciate good help and will give
raises based on interest and performance. Also tutoring in all areas of
pot making and technical stuff.

The supplier that usually mixes my clays has become very unreliable and I
can no longer count on them to even get my clay mixed on time. I've had a
pallet on order since June and thought it was mixed and ready to
deliver. They sold MY body that I ordered and provided the receipe etc. to
a local college. This is the second and last time they will do this. I
told them I was low on clay and needed a delivery. Sure I'm pissed! So
I've decided I'll have to start mixing again. I stopped in '95 because of
disc surgery but with some help, I should be able to do this again.

My studio is a bit NW of Salem, Oregon. If there are any interested
parties in the area, drop me an e-mail. My partner, Linda Owen, could also
use occasional help. We are not seeking any particular gender. Men or
women, whoever might like to work here now and then.

thanx, Craig Martell in Oregon
