Don't seem to find it on the list I looked at.

Would you or the Texan mind posting the number?

Thanks

I don't have any information other than what some folks have told me and from trying to find out by contacting them. They must not want guards to much, as this is their website. My understanding is they are more of an employment agency for other gate guard companies, than a gate guard company itself. They won't put any info out, even on the Escapees forum, so I would be very leery until I had more info.

My wife and I are still hanging out in Corpus Christi hoping a service yard with GGS at least opens up soon so we can wait it out without bouncing between walmarts. We keep asking them but they keep saying everything's full, try back in a couple days. It's been about a week and a half since we got here and got all the paperwork submitted with them, so really hoping we can get out there soon! Are you in the same boat mimi, or are you out there now?

That said, I've been in contact with the guy from J&G Security. We're trying to possibly get a gate with them, but he is definitely more difficult to communicate with than GGS - so together with all the info here I'm at least reasonably suspicious. But, like I said, I have at least spoken with him and exchanged emails, which seems to be more than others have reported - and while speaking he seemed to know what he was talking about *shrug* I'll contribute any useful info I have on that as it develops, and am definitely interested in the reports on the service yards so I have some idea when things might open up!

We just traveled over around Beaumont and back. I noticed what looks to be a temporary set up yard just south of Victoria. There was some equipment along with about a half dozen RVs in the yard. Thinking it might be some GG company yard. Didn't see a sign of any kind. Posting this merely for anyone that might be interested. Just south of the Speedy Stop Exxon on 77.

Sounds like to me that GGS could work something out with all the "displaced" folks out there. Perhaps a discounted rate at an RV park nearby or letting them use the portable hookups they already have. Maybe deduct the cost of diesel from their pay after they get on a gate. I don't know-I just hate to see people struggle.

Just got back from the Whitsett yard. There were 4 there when I first got there and while there 2 newbies showed up to get a job and are in the electric/water sites. Jamie said 2 are going out tomorrow, so the 2 new couples, who have never worked a gate, will be in FHU tomorrow and in rotation for a job next week. Like I said, those who go to Corpus, instead of straight to a yard are going to get hosed. The office has NO idea what is happening out in the field.

I was amazed at all the new pads in the Pawnee area. There were at least ½ dozen new pads ready for drilling within a mile radius of the town. We may be moving over there to take another Pioneer construction gate in 2 or 3 weeks, so went over to see what it looked like.
