Need a little more info bud...

What kind of work are you looking for?

I know you said anything, but lets be real, what do you really want to do?

It is difficult to hire someone who says they'll do anything, because to me that says they either have no skills, or just need a temporary job to pay the bills.

The jobs that are available right now have dozens of potential candidates, so you need to set yourself apart from them, in other words, what makes you special?...

Really trying to not sound condescending, but you would be amazed at how many people I have tried to get hired and they literally have no specific skill set. The problem is, I can go and steal anyone I want right now because some companies just don't have the work to keep good people due to lack of hours.

If you ask for a job doing anything, you better be willing to do just that....

Good luck and let me know (in a PM if you wish) what you're capable of and I will see what I can do. We are growing like a friggen weed and are always in need of good people.  :thumbup:

Good luck!

not to be a bother but perhaps this is why you havent found work?  you need to sell yourself.  take every opportunity seriously and professionally.  someone asks you what you do, what type of work you're looking for, you better be slapping resume's in their hand.

I used to work for a company that was purchased by Johnson Controls Inc....Last year I left there to go to work for my old service manager at ACCO Environmental Systems. By and large, the best decision I have ever made, all be it a hard one.

Best people I have ever worked for, have more work than we can do, and still work with all my buddies....

I want to say to 78centurion that I am really trying not to be a dick, trying to help you find some work.... :thumbup:

If there is any California certified commercial electricians out there, LA/OC area, send a PM if interested. (need to be certified/in school or no hire, good ol California laws).
