    I currently have my background info being run by knight and ffe, which one of these is the lesser of two evils? I've read alot of bad stuff about both so its a touch choice. But I don't have many options because of no recent experience.

    I have no experience at FFE but I served a 11 month sentence slaving for the Knight family! Stay away from them! They will tell you whatever you want to hear to get you behind the wheel. Once the honeymoon is over (3months or so) is when the fecal matter hits the rotating blades and splatters all over you!

    Actually, I cant blame the job this time. I only work 3 days a week (and still cleared just under $900 for 2 weeks!) But I have been keeping myself busy in my NEW workshop! We did away with our family room (which used to be the garage), tore out the carpet, threw away all the furniture, and moved all my power tools up out of the basement. I have been making pens and pocketwatches and other stuff again so that hopefully by this summer I can start going to the craft shows and art shows and selling some product!

    That's what the wife, 4 kids, and 2 grand-daughters do for me!

    I know knight and ffe get a bad rap, but lets say to just get back out there which would be the better bet.
