I was there with Adtech a couple of years ago and we stayed in apartments in the suburb of Glyfada. It's a great place to stay and party but it is a LONG commute to the embassy. I don't know what we paid monthly but it wasn't outlandish.

Gilford corp. is on the job and the sup. is supposed to be a real prick. He set up the shared housing in paris. We were making 250 a day per-diem living in our own accomidations. The guys who took in on the shared housing only made 100 a day. It gets better the apartment had six rooms six guys. The apt was only 4000 a month. Here's the math 6 guys 150 a day. 900 a day 27,000 a month minus 4000 = 23,000 a month they pocketed of these poor guys. Me and two good friends shared a three bedroom 2 bath for 3200 a month. So it only cost us 35 a day in Paris pocketing 215 of our per-diem. Back to my point Gilford corp has the job, you can find them on the net. They are real shady some guys would go weeks without getting paid. I was warned but went anyway, wish i'd listened to some fellow rats.
rjenkins@gilfordcorp.com this lady can give you the info she is the head over HR.
Thanks for the info, I am NOT going there for Gillford. :cheers

Well, when ya get there, give us the inside and let us know if ya need anyone else. :D
Last I ever heard about that place, it wasn't going to be done by Americans, was just an Annex or something. don't know, but any job run by the "G" corp, needs an "Enter at own risk, and against advice of others having already dealt with them" NEON tag on it.

Well, I guess that if gilford has it, then I am just going to wait and see if something better comes up in the future. Once again thanks for the warning.

From my last job in Athens I was under the impression that the Annex was going to be done entirely with local labor. I assumed that there would possibly be some TSS work but that there wouldn't be much to it. I haven't heard of any TSS contracts for the Annex. Did I miss something? Does anyone know of any cleared Americans being hired?
