OP's gotta be trolling. First he's worried about having to "sale" his house and move again, then it was "paid for in cash".

I wouldn't want to try to sell a home that is paid for in a place where the economy sucks either but I would if I found a job where I would have to move.

Well, if the rigs are not hiring and you cant get your CDL, perhaps you should look into the supporting industries.





I know Range is hiring.





MarkWest is always looking for laborers at their pipe yard in Bridgeville.





Keystone containment out towards Imperial might be looking for laborers.





traffic control companies are always looking for good, ontime, non drunk traffic controllers.





Local site prep and pipeline companies like Alex Paris are always looking for guys.





Horizontal Wireline services is looking for responsible guys.











I'm not even in the business, but I know whats up.











Please don't PM me about any of this... contact those companies please.

I don't know what line of work you were in, but I have several friends who work in the natural gas field here in NE PA.  Areas in western PA are said to be very busy with NG work as well.

OK so you are on meds and the big boys wont hire you because of liability issues, but you could get a CDL if your neck wasn't screwed up?





OR, is the real issue the meds in the first place?

well then if the companies I listed wont hire you or you don't want to work for them and you cant get a driving job I suggest changing careers and if that's something you want to do, then please follow this mans advice:

You probably came to the worst place in the world to ask about something being wrong with you UE check.  

Did the mail man leave it under your work boots possibly?

Yes but what you fail to see is that most here would not take unemployment unless they truly need it. So therefor they were under the impression you needed a job.

The fact that you have an iPhone with a data plan you are not on "hard times". The reason 30% of our income goes to the fed is because people think that they are entitled to the money that is just given out. Besides if they don't take it then someone else will right?

Honestly I hate having to pay for peoples cable and internet because they can't keep a job. Sorry if that is harsh but you are talking about "extra" spending money and you came here to see if anyone else was having problems getting their money too.

Look up active duty E5 pay then feed me a sad story of how hard it is to make ends meet or having to leave your family to pay bills.

Op if you have mechanical abilities and know or are willing to learn truck and trailer systems there are jobs out there. I came out of the army as a heavy equipment operator. There were no jobs in that field here at the time because the oil field was in a bust cycle (1991).
Got a job in truck parts and have been in that field ever since. I made over 50K last year but my employer believes in paying good money for good people.

With your driving experience you might be able to get a job dispatching.

I love you type of guys. You ask a question, then state your position, and then get your question answered and it was answered by someone already, then when someone comes along that might be able to help you, instead of concentrating on getting that help, you get all mad because other people who could care less about you make fun of your spelling.





Good luck on the job search and pay attention next time because theres not a lot of guys in the world willing to give two shits about you.
