Considering offering ongoing classes

Hello everyone! I am considering offering an ongoing class to teach people how to assemble their own floral arrangements of all kinds. We will do centerpieces of all sizes and shapes, wedding bouquets, and everything in between. The class would serve many purposes...

1. just for fun for those who want to learn
2. a social gathering
3. a tool to assist with learning a trade that could turn into a job with my business
4. a marketing tool for professionals wanting to meet potential clients

She Love Me

She never complains. When I’ve had a long stressful day at work, she is always there waiting for me with her beautiful brown eyes. She protects me as though she is ten feet tall, I protect her without ever thinking twice at all.

I really don’t know what I would do with her. She likes to go on long walks in the park. I think it’s because she hates road trips and flying, but she would tell you differently, and that I am lying.

She is always so happy and I wondered how I ever got so lucky. Lately… Continue

Welcome to All!

One person, one action can make a difference. Stand up and get noticed. Now is not the time to hide .... stand up and say choose me for your open position! Get noticed! **Special thanks to Sara of Peace4 for this find! :)

Welcome to all! I am the administrator of this site. If you encounter problems while navigating the site or with any individuals, please let me know immediately.

I got into wanting to help job seekers first at Nativity where I ran the career transition group for many years until I moved to the desert southwest. Now that I have returned to the KC area I am now at Sacred Heart (Shawnee) running their job club and I am the administrator of this site, the Kansas City Metro Networking Job Club.

I am so pleased that I've been blessed to once again be able to give back to the KC community that I grew up in, where I can carry on my family's well over 100 year old tradition of giving back to our community [see the book At the River's Bend]. I work a full-time and a part-time job so this is my only way of giving of my time and talent…of carrying on the tradition of giving back and paying forward.

Maureen Reintjes

__________________________________________________________________

If anyone has a problem with any individual on here who is trying to help the job seekers I ask that you please be grown up and professional by extending the courtesy to address your issue with the person in question FIRST before taking it to a large, open meeting.

Every person who is offering help on here came to me first and asked permission. If you feel I got it wrong then show me the PROOF! I will always question the agendas of the stone throwers over the accused when unprofessional tactics were used to gather and hurl the stones.

Note to the Kansas City Metro Networking Job Club members:

Any links that lead away from this site we cannot control their content nor do we endorse their content. As in all opportunities you are responsible for your own research into the validity of the offer. And, as a reminder I have no problems banning anyone from this site if warranted.

Rope with Hope Job Coaches


Note: It is the responsibility of ALL job seekers who arrange for this free offer with Rope with Hope Job Coaches to check out the job coach's credentials on your own. Kansas City Metro Networking Job Club does not endorse any one coach. Job seekers are professional adults who certainly know how to look into any offer on their own.

Job Club facilitators: Please feel free to start a group on this site and invite your members to join. This way people can go to your Group and see information that pertains only to your club. I have also created our own Group: "KC Area Job Club Facilitators" which is a group just for us .... don't forget to join!

New Members (job seekers): Please feel free to start discussions. If you have questions during your journey to landing a new position you may leave your questions in the "Start a Discussion" area.

For those that have joined our online group, WELCOME!!!! Please note, you do not need to be a member of our onsite group to join the online group.

Each member can build their own page. If you are a job seeker, please treat your page as a resume that potential employers may view. I suggest only placing your email address on your page as a way for anyone to contact you, do not post your address and phone number. Please remember that your future employer or current employer may happen upon this site, please conduct yourself appropriately. Any offensive photos, graphics, music, text, and conversations will be deleted by the facilitator/moderator. Rudeness to others on this site will not be tolerated and the offender will have his/her membership deleted from this group.

If you are not a job seeker but are in a position to hire or simply want to volunteer your time networking with the job seekers, you too may also build your own page. The same rules apply to you as they do to the job seekers: Any offensive photos, graphics, music, text, and conversations will be deleted by the facilitator/moderator. Rudeness to others on this site will not be tolerated and the offender will have his/her membership deleted from this group.

Anyone who is in a position to hire or help network are encouraged to join our online social networking group. We need professionals who can address the online members and/or groups about career transition related topics.

If you know of anyone who is out of work, changing careers, or who may be facing a layoff in the near future, please let them know about the group.

Announcing Sacred Heart’s Job Club:

Our newly formed job club is for networking and support for all those searching for work or seeking to change careers. It is open to all in the Kansas City metro area. For contact information and information about our weekly onsite meetings see:
