The Wynn / Encore are looking to fill a few positions in the Engineering Dept. The positions are for "steady extra" status (full-time but no benefits). Go to the website and see if you fit in. The pay is good, but no benefits. Better than nothing.

Flooring contractor needed.

My dad and I bought a house and we want to install tile downstairs and an awning in the back yard to cover the patio.

I am looking for a licensed bonded contractor that can show me an example of thief work. I thought I would check here before just going through the yellowpages. PM me.

Thanks for posting, it might help someone here. When we bought our house many years ago, the patio needed a cover, we called a place called "Do it yourself patio covers" (Eastern and Warm Springs), they came out and measured the area, and soon they dropped off the materials and instructions. It took a couple weekends, but I did manage to do it myself. The savings was probably over $1,000 just in labor. I didn't have a easy time of it, but did save some cash. You also have to file the building permit with the city. Just a thought.

Just curious...

Is there a centralized listing of casino jobs or should I look at each casino's website?

I have about 10 years of experience in the gaming field (CA tribal gaming).
Approx 3.5 years working in surveillance and approx 6 years working in gaming control.

I've been waiting for the NGCB to post openings, but I doubt they'll be hiring in the next couple of years due to the state gov hiring freeze.

I'm about done with CA (due to the taxes), any hints/comments on where I should look for employment in NV?

Lake Tahoe (for gaming) has taken some serious hits. We've lost a casino in South Lake (Bill's I believe) and on the north side Cal Neva has shut down. The reason? I hear Indian casinos (e.g. Red Hawk going up on US 50 on the way to South Lake) are a big cause, combined with the economy.

Jobs here are seasonal. Places (e.g. Hard Rock, Heavenly, etc.) hire for the seasonal tourist events here. About three months it was for the summer season, and around October it'll be for the winter season. A lot of residents (e.g. my neighbor runs 3 boats on the lake including a 55' cat) work hard during a few months, save and then relax for the rest of the year. If you have the wherewithal and can stand the ebb/flow (shoulder season is horrible for many people) you can make it.

Also, construction here appears dead. Another neighbor has been out of work (20 year carpenter) for about 2 years. He's been here for 20 and splits his time between Tahoe and MN. He's gone all the way down the LV to look for work and is basically saying everything up and around here is shot. Give it another month and he's heading to Salt Lake City. The other guy in construction on my street has been out of it for about a year and is now starting to look, hard. However, someone did spend $150k+ on remodeling a home three houses down, so that money is still around, just hard to get a grab of.

I'll throw mine in...

I'm 25, unemployed for over a year. I'm a good worker and a perfectionist with very high standards. My main trade is woodworking. I managed a woodshop for over a year but i've been woodworking since high school. I've done tile work- I tiled my whole house including big backspash. I've done new construction plumbing, retail work, I was Asst. Mgr. at a local lube shop. I've done auto repair, been a supply driver for a masonry company. I've done a little bit of just about everything you can think of, mostly as do-it-yourself type of stuff. I have apretty good list of talents/hobbies that I am good at: Woodworking, woodcarving, sculpture, oil painting, photography, model cars, Gemcutting, jewelry-making, tile mosaics...

I'd really like to get into something along the lines of Gemstones or woodworking, but I will take anything I can get. I've been applying for jobs here in Vegas and in Colorado, where my sister has a bed for me, for over a year with no luck. Any help would be a Godsend.

If anyone can keep their ears out for my unemployed father too... He's laid off from Southern Nevada Paving for almost a year. He has a lot of experience with the paving crews and is an "Operating Engineer", operating heavy equipment. I think he has about 8+ years experience with each. He really needs a job.

Thanks for this thread!

OK so I saw Sideforce post a "Looking for Work" Thread so I figured I would too.

My experience is in CAD design and CAD/IT management (Computer Aided Design/Information Technologies) this equals about 19 years of experience. The experience lies mainly in Civil Engineering Design but I have also worked in Architectural, and Mechanical Engineering firms.

I have a Technical Degree in Architectural Engineering Design, and a Technical Certificate in Mechanical Engineering design.

Right now I am looking for ANYTHING as I have been out of work now for way too long!! The industry in which I have experience in has all but tanked and I am more than willing to change careers. I am looking for any job that will pay me at least 30K a year ($15 an hour) which is taking a pay cut of more than 50% of my previous pay...


My hope is to find something in Engineering or if I need to change, something in Law Enforcement or Armed Security as I believe I would do well in those fields.

Thanks, ANY leads or help getting a "foot in the door" somewhere would be greatly appreciated!
Hello all, I will be posting job listing in general forms area titled "HIRING". Job details will be there. Thanks

Hiring

Hello,

The company I work for is hiring. The job is installing cable for COX. We provide paid training, and are willing to work with you on required tools. Must be able to pass background check and drug screening. Must have pick-up or suv that you are willing to put a ladder rack on, as we drive our own vehicles. Must have valid licence, registration and insurance. The job involves hights and tight places at times, so you must be able to deal with both.
Once out of training, how much you make is up to you, as it is piece work pay. Most techs average around $50,000 annually but did have one hit 115,000 last year. Its a good job, but not for everyone.

NP I had actually bookmarked all those, I was looking at possibly joining the military as I am still out of work. Unfortunately, I am 36 and on the top edge of the physical requirements so I am just outside the range for most branches...
If you are looking for work, pls look in general section, thread titled "hiring".:driving:
