Hi there, Bob here, posting an unusual request:

I am going to be looking for work, my current empolyment is done at end of this month, my father is selling the business.
Anyway, my buddy that lives in Chandler invited me to visit and I am going to be coming to greater Phoenix after the first week of Aug.
I have a place to stay and hang, I am just considering moving to AZ and would need help getting situated and finding employment.
I have worked for my father's resale furniture business for the last 10 years, full-time and I have a lot of experience selling furniture and moving it as well.
I have been the sales manager and performed open/close duties and some minor bookeeping(SALES TAX,QUARTERLY REPORTS,PAYROLL)
I am open to working indoors or outdoors doing manual labor if any of you own your own business and could hire me so I can live till I sell my home in Illinois
My buddy recomended www.jobing.com (http://www.jobing.com/)
I am looking for any kind of work and a inexpensive place to live, temporarily, till I get my footing, open to sharing a house and or condo with someone.

Do you have any metal stud framing experience, or hanging/taping/mudding? If so, I can put you in touch with a company here in Phx called AROK. It's hot working outside in the summer here, but it's money if you need it bad enough. Let me know if all else fails.
