States Job Introduction

employment
services, free government and fee
national
job websites

city and state job websites
local
city professional organizations

major local areas in the U.S.
United
States is not big on manufacturing anymore.
It’s big on developing new ideas and the computer/ (IT) Information
Technologies.
You have two ways to go when looking for a
job in the United States.
Find the boom places. Go there.
Pick a boom field. Study it, get the skill then either find the
boom area for that skill or go where the jobs area.
For some fields, jobs are everywhere like the
medical fields.
The job market will get worse with
automation and artificial intelligence.
People say immigration is
good. I say it was good at one time but
not anymore. There are not enough jobs
for the people in the United States who want them. It’s that simple.
Oil will disappear as soon as next
energy source comes along.
If you think green energy is the
next big thing, watch Michael Moore’s movie called Planet of the Humans which
reveals what a scam it is, this idea that mirrors in the desert or some other
stupid idea will solve our energy needs.
There may be a wireless home
electricity device.
At some point, all those oil, gas
and electricity jobs will be gone because a better technology will replace
them.
Right now, I think there are only
enough jobs for about half the people.
They lie like crazy with that stupid unemployment rate which does not
measure all the people out of work not collecting an unemployment check.
Some guy said that by 2030, the
tractor trailer trucks will be automated.
If that’s true, that’s a lot of jobs gone.
Poverty and homelessness are hidden
in our societies. Gary Null created a
film called Poverty, Inc. which is free online about the truth of what’s really
going on.
Either the powers-that-be will have
to give everyone a guaranteed monthly check and an apartment or the homeless,
suicide, crime and substance abuse rates will continue to climb.
A few things stay the same:
some jobs will always be there like
food, housing, water, sewage treatment, transportation, emergency medical care,
government administration, electricity, plumbing, etc.
most people have to work to survive
and pay bills otherwise they will be homeless
there are jobs for any go-getter
there are emerging technologies and
fields like genetics, nanotechnology, driverless cars, space travel, tunnel
travel, anti-gravity travel, teleportation and things I can’t imagine yet.
The ultimate certainty is that
technology and automation will eliminate jobs.
There will be jobs in these new fields but lots of jobs will die.
I foresee a day when planes and
transport trucks will be operated like drones are now.
Military, security and law
enforcement are good careers in a police-state type of world
People move to the
boom areas. Right now Williston, North
Dakota has an oil boom. Go where the
boom is or pick an emerging field like automation or nanotechnology.
I heard that there
are two sides to Vegas, the rich side and the poor side. When Vegas is losing money, it means that
people don’t have disposable income. The
system stinks. I got my ideas about how
to solve it but I’m just providing hardcore practical information in this book.
Unless you’re rich, you have to
always be practical. I don’t understand
the austerity and the desperation that seem to have permeated the world
recently. I think it’s a scam perpetrated
by the so-called money-masters. We live
in a bountiful world. I’ve read
biographies of Jacques Fresco (thevenusproject.com) and Woody Guthrie who
couldn’t understand the Depression when they saw boarded-up businesses with
people willing to work. What is stopping
us from thriving? Every individual needs
guts and initiative.
Social media is good
to a point but the way to get a job with an online presence is to offer
something useful. Somebody watching
might offer you a job. If you start a
blog, podcast or youtube channel for your field, some bigshot might watch it,
decide you’re a worthy person and offer you a job.
It’s not like you
create a facebook page and people are going to come out of the woodwork
offering you jobs. You have to offer
something first.
A lot of job-hunting
is still done the old-fashioned way at a local level.
A boss still
appreciates the initiative of someone who shows up physically looking for a
job. Employers want to see people
face-to-face to get a feel for them and look to see if they look healthy and
motivated.
This book has the
most job websites for United States jobs than any other book or website.
If that’s not
enough, go to #331 at the library.
It’s about being
smart. First pick a field that’s in
demand without much competition.
Do something you
like.
Move if you have to
in order to find a decent job.
Plumbing, food and
the medical industries will always be there.
Technology will
almost eliminate some professions.
A lot of software
and video games are made in India and Eastern Europe on contract for American
companies. Even though a piece of
software is supposedly created by an American company, it was really made in
Hungary. Why should they pay you $25 an
hour when they can pay a Hungarian guy $5 an hour.
The website
bls.gov/oco tries to pick the fields of the future.
Nowadays you have to
brand yourself online or fix up your online presence to present a professional
serious image because a lot of employers check potential employees out online.
You could use social
media to find a job.
Most companies now
want e-resumes only.
The two hard and
fast old school rules are that:
you have to pound
the pavement, find employers in your local area and don’t just send
emails. Actually go there and ask for a
job, a job application, to speak to the boss, etc.
If you’re motivated,
upbeat, confident, believe you have worthy skills and are relentless in your
pursuit of a job in your field or any unskilled job, you’ll find one because
the unwritten rule of the work world is that every boss is always looking for a
new good worker.
If you show up
everyday knocking on doors looking for work, you’ll get a job.
You might not get
one if you send out resumes and application forms on the internet and
wait.
People like people who
show up, ask to meet the boss then ask face-to-face if there are any jobs. They might be caught off guard but they’ll
remember you when an opening comes up.
The biggest thing in
life for most people aside from personal relationships and health is to earn a
living. This comes down to several
things:
1.) Education, skill
2.) Your ability to
know where to look for the jobs
3.) Your ability to
be nice around people
4.) Your ability to
show up everyday
5.) Your ability to
do what you’re told
6.) The brownnose
factor, how to play job politics
7.) Your motivation
and desperation for work
These are all huge
areas. I cover them all somewhere
through all these job superbooks.
At the library,
related books are at:

In the end, what is life but a journey of an individual
soul. You need money and a job but if
you ain’t happy, so what.
It was the best of times
It was the worst of times
It was the age of wisdom
It was the age of foolishness
It was the epoch of belief
It was the epoch of incredulity
It was the season of light
It was the season of darkness
It was the spring of hope
It was the winter of despair
We had everything before us
We had nothing before us
We were all going direct to
Heaven
We were all going direct the
other way.
Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two
Cities
“Your time
is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by
dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let
the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most
important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow
already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
Steve Jobs
An excerpt is from a speech frequently called "The Man
in the Arena," given by President Theodore Roosevelt in Paris in 1910, a
year after he left office.
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who
points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds ould have
done them better. The credit belongs to
the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat
and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again
because there is no effort without error and shortcomings, who knows the great
devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the
end the high achievement of triumph and who at worst, if he fails while daring
greatly, knows his place shall never be with those timid and cold souls who
know neither victory or defeat."
Another great one is the poem If:
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good nor talk too wise;
If you can dream and not make your dreams your master;
If you can think and not make thoughts your aim,
If you can meet Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build them up with worn out tools;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch and toss,
And lose and start again at your beginnings,
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they're gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: HOLD ON.
If you can walk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute,
With sixty seconds worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And which is more, you will be a Man, my son.
Rudyard Kipling
