Nebraska has averaged 4.x% unemployment. If you're breathing and drug free, $15 starting wage is average.

If she's serious about finding a job, why would she rule out doing anything - as long as it's legal?

Driving through town is not the best way. Craigslist is a good resource.

Can't help with the job location but make sure you don't write up her resume.

Online job searches for simple administrative assistant jobs might help. Those dont require much experience. Its basic office work.

Does she have anything against working nights?  Maybe a night stocker at a grocery store.

Is she a stay at home wife looking for "shoe shopping" money or does she need a job to help pay the mortgage?

Does she have any skills?
Education level?
In home child care?
Sell some eggs? My wife's friend (SMOKIN hot red head lesbian with amazing knockers) is selling eggs to pay off student loans. 3-4 months "work" for $4k if it works

sorry never finished that line
she has buged them for about 5/6 months and then she went in and filled out her aplacation again we just never hear any word back we get (the manager is off or we are reviewing them and would let us know)
she has 3years as a cashier, merchandiser and she has her emt quals for IL we are working on getting them for FL
her education is highschool with some collage (still a work in progress)
we looked into the in home child care but the base has extreamly tight rules on how it has to be run.
i hadn't thought of that (selling eggs) but it will be a topic for tonight when i get home.

Many places only take on-line applications these days, even if they're not advertising for work.

Looking for "Help Wanted" signs limits her prospects.

My hat is off to anyone with a desire to work anymore.
Wishing good luck to your wife in finding employment soon.

What about unofficially? Anyone in your "unit" looking to get their child more personal attention and reduce child care costs?

We have friends that are both E-3s in the air force. THey have a 13 month old. They were paying $225/week for on base child care.
They now pay my wife $35/day to watch him. That saves them money, especially if they end up with a 4 day week or time off etc and my wife brings in some income.

It also gets the kid out of a large child care facility where he gets little personal attention and you struggle with all the other sick kids, etc

Food for thought

ETA: my wife delivered phone books for quest for a while.
Got her out of the house and made some money
Something like $1.50 per book + gas

She also has a friend that does house inspections for banks. Literally all she does is drive to the address, see if it looks vacant or occupied, snap some photos and email them to the bank. $15 per "inspection"

Is she crafty? My wife makes headbands that our daughter wears. Make extras and sell them on etsy for $12.

Well shit, go apply at Navy Federal.  I have many friends that work there, they are hiring a lot of jobs in January.  Decent pay and it's easy to move up.  It's off of 9 mile road over towards beulah area.
