San Antonio Workers Find Flexible Work Opportunities in City’s Expanding Economy
SAN FRANCISCO, February 23, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Instawork, the leading platform for connecting businesses with skilled workers, announced today the platform's availability to hourly workers in the San Antonio area looking to earn higher wages.
In San Antonio, the average hourly pay rate on the Instawork platform is $18.95 per hour, more than double the local minimum wage of $7.25 per hour. That steep increase in earnings gives local residents an easier way to make ends meet during a continued period of inflation.
The announcement comes amid a recent report which predicts San Antonio's economy will outperform many other large cities in 2023, ranking the area fifth among America's fastest growers. As businesses grow as a result and look for qualified hourly workers, Instawork users can now take advantage of the increased demand for their skills and earn higher wages by creating a profile on the app and finding work opportunities across the San Antonio metro area.
"San Antonio is booming and so are thousands of local businesses," said Kira Caban, Instawork's Head of Strategic Communications. "This presents the perfect opportunity for local workers to increase their income while having a say in when, where, and how they want to work."
More than 13,000 people in San Antonio have already downloaded the Instawork app and are working to staff business locations across the area. Common roles for Instawork in San Antonio include line cook, general labor, prep cook, and event server positions. Local workers can easily create a profile, find a shift that matches their skills and interests, and start working in as little as 24 hours.
Businesses across the Lone Star State that rely on Instawork range from nationally recognized hotels and restaurant groups to some of the state's favorite local hot spots and sports venues. They have easy access to quality, reliable workers following Instawork's announcement that over 1 million people joined the app ahead of last year's busy holiday season.
Instawork is currently staffing businesses in more than 30 markets across the U.S. and Canada. Those interested in learning more about Instawork should visit www.instawork.com or download the app.

Collaboration Renews Commitment to the Epicenter for Judicial Education at University of Nevada, Reno
National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges
The nation's oldest judicial membership and education organization
RENO, Nev., February 22, 2023 (Newswire.com) - University of Nevada, Reno has a renewed commitment to host the Epicenter for Judicial Education at the University's campus. The University of Nevada, Reno Judicial Studies Graduate Degree Program, The National Judicial College (NJC) and the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges (NCJFCJ), with more than 160 years of combined judicial education experience, are helping to prepare the country's most important decision-makers and leaders serving the third branch of government.
"This collaboration is unmatched nationally, creating a powerhouse of resources, educational opportunities, and progressive thinking to serve the judiciary," said Jeffrey Thompson, executive vice president & provost at University of Nevada, Reno.
Together, the presence of these three unique but allied institutions in one locale creates the Epicenter for Judicial Education. The organizations contribute to the university and northern Nevada as well as Lake Tahoe through the University of Nevada, Reno Lake Tahoe campus.
"The NJC has been proud to call Reno home for nearly 60 years," said Benes Aldana, National Judicial College president and CEO. "Our students and alumni have long benefitted from our proximity and connections to the NCJFCJ and the Judicial Studies graduate degree programs. For judges looking to build on their knowledge and skills, no place offers more than Reno. And they get to see some of the most spectacular scenery at the same time."
"This partnership has and will continue to bring substantial benefit to the judiciary and the field of judicial studies," said Shawn Marsh, associate professor and director of the judicial studies graduate degree program exclusively for sitting judges. "The depth and breadth of education, research, and engagement these organizations provide has meaningfully improved outcomes for both consumers and administrators of justice across the United States and internationally," continued Marsh. "The Epicenter is indeed a unique asset of which our university and community should be proud."
Joey Orduña Hastings, chief executive officer of the NCJFCJ, said the organization relies on the strength of its members and partners to provide the best education, training, and research to every judicial professional in the country. The NCJFCJ turns 86 years old this year.
"Our invaluable and longstanding partnerships within the Epicenter for Judicial Education are essential to providing access to fair, equal, effective, and timely justice to every individual, family, and child," said Hastings.
The NCJFCJ will be hosting a Nevada Legislative Reception in Carson City on April 25, 2023. For more information, please visit the NCJFCJ website.

Papé Reaches Milestone 85th Year as Trusted Capital Equipment Dealer of the West
EUGENE, Ore., February 22, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Papé is celebrating its 85th year as the premier capital equipment dealer of the West through a consistent dedication to supporting local communities, employing countless families, and providing customers with the highest caliber of end-to-end solutions and reliable service.
Since 1938, when E.C. Papé acquired his first equipment dealership in Oregon's Willamette Valley, the standards of quality and service he created have remained the same. Today, Papé provides consistent, quality customer service for the warehouse workers, truckers, loggers, construction workers, and farmers who build the West.
After E.C.'s sons, Ed and Dean Papé, took over the family business in 1945, they expanded the dealership in 1952 to support customers in Roseburg and Coos Bay, Oregon, and later acquired the Caterpillar Dealership. In 1978, Papé modified the Caterpillar 245 Excavator for the logging industry. This development created an entirely new method of transporting trees in the Cascades known as Shovel logging, which uses a log loader to swing logs to the forest road. Since Papé began modifying Caterpillar machinery, the company has stood at the forefront of innovation for customers, dealers, and manufacturers.
Over the next 30 years, the Papé Group has also grown to include Ditch Witch underground construction equipment, John Deere Construction & Forestry, Kenworth Trucks, and John Deere Agriculture & Turf.
With its growth, the Papé Group has remained true to its core values of customer service and reliability, which fueled its growth into the modern age. From selling and servicing the equipment used to build Interstate 5 through Oregon to supporting the movement toward cleaner and more sustainable fuel, Papé has built its reputation on the belief of an honest deal and a firm handshake. Each branch of Papé works with best-in-class manufacturers for each industry to keep customers moving with innovation and end-to-end capital equipment solutions.
As a fourth-generation, family-owned company, Papé is dedicated to supporting local charities, such as FFA organizations, education foundations, family centers, churches, children's hospitals, and many more. Papé serves as an annual sponsor for United Way of Lane County, which focuses on creating a community where all kids can be successful in school and life. Papé also sponsors equipment for various schools and athletic programs.
Today, Papé is consistently committed to delivering the best capital equipment solutions with a footprint that started in Oregon and grew throughout the West in Washington, California, Nevada, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Arizona, and Alaska.
Innovation, expansion, and community involvement play significant roles in Papé's success as the preeminent equipment dealer and reliable partner that keeps the West moving. Over the next 85 years, Papé will remain true to the guiding principles customers rely on while looking forward to the future for new, innovative methods to maximize uptime in the years to come.
About PAPÉ GROUP: Papé is your provider for all your end-to-end solutions and premium capital equipment needs. Serving the West for 85 years, we maximize our customers' uptime through top-quality equipment, convenient maintenance service, and the best customer service. As the leading supplier of construction, logging, material handling, landscaping, trenching, and farm equipment, as well as semi-trucks and warehouse products, Papé makes good on providing our customers with end-to-end solutions. Papé has remained a local and family-owned company since its creation because we want to ensure Papé's commitment to our customers remains consistent and reliable.
