This concerns us alittle bit here at Loose Topics. Why are we concerned you ask? Because if you take a moment and actually look around this city, it is the small businesses that make this big city worth living in and visiting. There will be readers that say that is not true, it is the big three that make this city desirable. What are the big three? 1. petrochemical (oil and gas) 2. military (CCAD) 3. tourism. On a side note here, isn't it a bit troublesome that we are a city on a bay with easy access to a plentiful Gulf of Mexico, yet fishing or seafood rank very low here. Just saying.
Back to the topic. Ok so maybe someone says those are the big three. In the real world that most of all of us live in they may be, but they provide very little to the average resident. Our refineries here rarely hire operators. Those are jobs that come open very seldom. Sure these refineries offer turn arounds for a few weeks at a time, but they provide no certain stability. As for CCAD, or our military base in general, they offer excellent jobs. Has anyone ever applied out there? The process takes years at best in order to get hired on. Now once you get on out there it is great, but they also very rarely hire and when they do it is in very small numbers. So that leads us to tourism. Besides the beach, the Lex and the Aquarium, this city offers very little in tourism. Hopefully this will change soon because we have a great city.
Ok I strayed a bit there. So if the big three in Corpus Christi very rarely hire and offer very few jobs to the community, it must be locally owned businesses that make this city worth living in and visiting.
