Default Anyone help with me a job? please..

Hey all, i didnt want to do this but i thought i needed all the help i can get. I need a job, ive been out of work for a month and its becoming difficult to pay bills. I know im not the only one suffering but, if someone has a position open in their company i would like to know!!!

My last few jobs were as a carpenter / framer been doing this for 5years now and i know what im doing have my own tools and a nissan hardbody truck . Framing residential housing, addtions, and remodels. Leading a small group of framers and full knowledge of blueprints

Also was a Video Sales supervisor for Fry's Electronics for 2 1/2 years. I have sales experience as well as motivating, setting tasks, and meating deadlines.

Im also tech savy. Using many applications and finished a desktop publishing course. Been building computers since 8th grade (1993) and know my way around them and troubleshooting them.

If you can let me know of any position that would be OUTSTANDING!!
Resume is below, opens with MSWord
thank you for your time and i hope i didnt break forum rules =\

Sorry to hear Daniel... Carpentry isn't very strong @ the moment since construction has taken a huge hit with the housing BS going on.

Your best bet is to look at Solar installation/assembly, medical device manufacturers, refineries, Law Enforcement or Military. Those are the only places that I can think of that might have some growth opportunities.

Good luck, you will need it out there...

If you like working nights you can get a security officer license (guard card)fairly quick and do that till something else comes up.

I've been doing security work as a second job for almost 5 years now. They pay me for doing nothing

PM me some details on the company you work for. We are strong and closed the year off with record numbers. I thought all us Bay Area medical device companies were doing good. I have to admit that we are a little slow at the moment but January and February are always the slowest months for us.


We have some job openings but not sure if the OP qualifies for any of them.

No, Im not a recruiter. Im a Senior Manufacturing Planner and run the main product line of Advanced Surgical Tables. We (the entire company) get a weekly e-mail from our HR department with a listings of what jobs are open. We get a good chunk of cash if we recommend a friend that gets hired.
