    Remember... you work there. Try not to step on any ones toes. Try to bring it up in casual conversation that you are familiar with scrap metal and would like a chance to offer your services. At that point, let them come to you. I wouldn't ask directly.

    This worked well for me at my work. We scrap high grade extruded aluminum but its off limits to me. Iv told them i scrap heavy machinery and do e-waste. Ive never asked for anything specifically. They would always offered machines or e-scrap for me to take after that. Oh, and always be thankful and gracious.

    good luck, looks like you might be back in the game

    I'll pull the good ol' "hey Mr service manager.... There's **** everywhere all over the shop. It looks terrible. Dangerous even. If you want me to clean it up a bit I'd be glad to. Let me know. *hands him my old CTS Solutions cards which say SCRAP METAL on them*"

    LOL
