Unemployed Day Four.....

[Dave Richards]

William, it looks like you got peeps!

 

[NutmegCT]

William - are you still thinking of moving to Los Angeles?

Tom

Oh, I'm <span style="font-style: italic">always</span>thnking about that! But a couple of issues popped up, most importantly regarding money. Staying in Chicagoland isn't a horrible thing, but I've got the itch to be somewheres else. Pity, because I did see loads of openings in the payroll/admin sort of area, as well as customer service (even though I'm sort of trying to avoid that, CS being effectively what I did at Borders, and it having burned me out a bit).

-Wm.

OK - thanks. But help us out here ... are you saying there are lots of possible jobs for you in Chicagoland where you live now - but you just don't want to stay there?

If they don't, you don't want to work for them.

:thumbsup:


Some will see it, some will not. At this point in your existence my "take" is for you to pick ~where~ you wanna live, THEN hunt for opportunities. This place (the "lower 48") is homogenious for the most part, and picking a CLIMATE you like is what should be your Prime Directive now. After that, a job is next. There will never be a time where talent, drive and ability aren't recognized. You just have to find THAT business or opportunity wherever you decide to settle. You have family who're GOLDEN! Sign a contract with 'em to re-emburse their dedication to your decision. And honor it.

Just some random thoughts. :wink:

Bumped!!

AS they say in real estate 101-

Location, location, location!!

Jobs can be had anywhere. Be happy where you live and your job
is ever so much better.

pssssst - Huntsville, Alabama!

Try the hospital systems. They're huge employers, recession proof, great benefits, have enormous financial services and Human Resources staffs, pay is good, and all are hiring all the time. I have over 700 jobs open today! My secretary relocated here from Chicago and has never regretted it. (Here = Virginia).

Ah, Bill...when was the last time you spent an evening in downtown H'ville? Granted, its not N'Awlins; however....

I haven't been to Huntsville since 1973. Used to go to hockey camp there (of all places) when I was a kid. It was nice then.......
