Need help - MI DC'ers

pcon · December 9th, 2008, 06:37 PM

I'm not sure if this is DC appropriate, so MODS feel free to deletificate if not...

I'm moving back to Michigan here in about 3 weeks (first week of Jan) and am in need of a job, much like the other million residents of the state...

any michiganders out there know of anything around the ann arbor/detroit area? I'm willing to take pretty much anything that pays. PM me if you can point me in the direction of a good possibility.

Thanks and Merry Christmas!

Welcome back, and don't forget to bring a shovel with you :) Just kidding. Hope the move goes well. We could REALLY use a few more level headed people in this state. You will enjoy the LARGEST number of states that share reciprocity; of any state in the Union.

It is seriously tough here in Michigan with the job market. I have been searching for months now with no luck, and barely any bites.

Going back to MI...are you nuts?

Well if you are that convinced it's a good move, you might as well look for a job in the auto industry and be sure to buy a BIG house, too! (I believe there are some great deals.

)

Get a grip on yourself, man...MI is a dead end. (Speaking as a retired Michigander.)

I'm here and noone can find work. Every labor is quite competitive. I'm fortunate for the time being. I'd seriously try to find other options than coming here.
