Default Looking for a job.

I had gotten a new job and i gave my current employer notice i was leaving. I was sposed to start on thursday and my new boss called and said they got too slow to hire anyone else. I cant stand working where im at (Just tires). If anyone knows of anybody that is hirring that would be great. Im open to almost anything that pays decent. Im making $8.82 an hour now and my camaro has a blown motor. I gotta start making some more money.

I have experiance in sales, mechanics, delivering.

thanks
Jesse

Try Monster.com it's been pretty good at finding a lot of different jobs from entry-level positions to top positions.

Good luck with the search Jesse. I wish you had taken advantage of the offer we made you last year. The guy we did hire is working out very well but you were my first choice. Little bump IMO for a good young man that needs a break! Vince

My wife's firm does a ton of hiring & placements off of Monster...They use it all over the country.

Good luck finding something, I'm glad I am not out looking right now.

I'd like to give you my job. Pays decent, but the commute and hours tend to SUCK. Ideally, I'd like to go into full time investing right now, while the stock market is still in the toilet. But having a steady paycheck is good too.

My advice: If you have any cash, play the market. Now is the time that fortunes are made.
