What are some good sites to search for local jobs? My current job sucks and I keep getting dicked around and fucked over so I think its time for a change. Craigslist is a joke since most jobs seem to pay $8-10 an hour. I tried [Capitalareahelpwanted.com](http://Capitalareahelpwanted.com) but it seems like half of whats posted are temp agency jobs or National guard recruiting. ---

[monster.com](http://monster.com) and [careerbuilder.com](http://careerbuilder.com) are the de facto ones. Truthfully though, I found my current job through word of mouth. ---

Do 4 years in the Military, probably the best choice you could make at this point in your life. Get trained FOR FREE (and get paid at the same time) at a skill that you choose. ---

Unfortunately, this is the worst economic time to try to find work… especially without a degree. You are competing with people with degrees. $12/hr isn’t horrible. You need to network, linked in is great for that. monster, craigslist, capital area, are going to be your best bet. Ladders and Dice for degree peeps. ---
