Maybe start with your experience and what interests you. Have you ever done any construction? How about retail? I am not sure that you will find a job on the net, resumes in person would have more effect of course. Some people may be able to head you in the right direction with a little more information though.
That’s pretty much it in this town haha.
Go check out the carreer resource center. They have postings for everywhere.

I know Fairview Management often needs people to work with handicapped adults…it’s pretty high turnover as the work can be demanding. However, if you worked with street yout, you must have an extremely well developed sinse of patience and tolerance…
don’t think I’d be very good at that. Nope.
its not high turnover because of the clients . its high turnover because of management
Yeah I hear that from many workers who honestly do the work while management drives around town. Enough said. But many of the clients are lots of fun and not really that hard to deal with , especially if you can gain their trust. Or mine…lol
yea most the people ive met who work or worked with the clients love them and enjoy it. just poor management really like most jobs lol
