Jobless

I know! I cant find any painting jobs in georgia because the immigrants are working so cheap.

Why are you blaming everyone else??? I have been running my own painting company for quite some time now and I am the busiest I have ever been and I can't find people who can travel and want to work. Not even the immigrants. There are jobs out there, you just aren't looking in the right place.

That is a good idea. He can open his own painting company and hire immigrants

well you know that might not always be realistic, but if I paid cash and didn't need their papers, I would hire them. One immigrant can do the work of 2 Americans. Im not trying to be mean, its just that we are so spoiled and for some reason expect for money to fall in our laps. I have the same symptoms sometimes. I am a travelling contractor. I have a HUGE contract and I can't find employees. I offer great benefits and yet NO ONE wants to travel. I have a hard time hearing the blame to immigrants from people because of my situation.

where would someone starting a painting company look for painting jobs as a subcontractor on the internet

It is people that think this way that have the economy the way it is. Immigrants do the work that other races don't like to do, because they are too LAZY to do it!!!! Hard work is not in their vocabulary. They only like to do the easy part. If it wasn't for immigrants AMERICA would not be here. And because a WHITE man is running the country now it falling apart!! That is since he started to mess with the immigrants. If he were smart he would would have immigrants come into america and work to make this a better place to be in.

I went to a company that had almost all mexicans after my boss died of a heart attack. I outworked them and did superior work. They said they they wanted to get rid of me and only hire other mexicans. They do not want only menial jobs. My job is not a menial job. They wanted my job. Ellis island exist for a reason. I work hard and am not affraid to travel and was born in America. I am german.

if ther are so many good jobs why does our richmond times dispatch newspaper get one to two jobs aweek? i've been in rich.,va 19 years.the last 3 have been the worst!plus this is a right to work state, they don't even have to have a reason to fire someone. i was fired 7-28-08 for asking for$16 hrly.you may be in comm or just have a contract with comps to big to be affected, so until you look at from "where" you are and owner or labor then you may view things differently.

Wow, there are some real retards here. For starters, have you ever reviewed your own grammar and spelling? I'm a business owner and wouldn't hire anyone who can't use English properly, regardless of the forum.

I lived in Richmond, Va for several years. Try George Mobray painting or First Class contractors. they have a lot of work and pay well

hey rabbit if you are looking for a good and honest painter and if you are ever in massachusett email m.rios1969@yahoo.com mike

were are this jobs?
I need a painting job I have 3 years experience , (interior/exterior)

I'm a Hispanic/American born and raised here.. and it disgusts me to see this kind of talk, first of all we are not all mexicans you country hick, second of all hispanics or immigrants as you call them are hard working family oriented people. All they want is to work and I'm hurt and disgusted by the majority of you people...look for a job instead of talking all this smack.. spend all afternoon in the winter or hot summer outside at a
7-11 waiting for a chance to work...Then say they take the jobs your "looking for".

Do you still need painters who are willing to travel?

Hello, I own a painting contract business in Rapid City, SD and this winter's procured work was swiped by illegal alien immigrants who came in way under my price. Myself and seven full time employees were traded for cheap, illegal labor. I couldn't get a signature on the contract from the dirty old prime contractor. I am capable of supervising 20+ employees at a time, commercial jobsites, custom color work, spray, backroll, lacquer, operate lifts, do not drink or use drugs. My children are grown and I am not tied down. I research bids, write them and execute the job once procurred. I have completed Federal Housing Painting under the US Army Corps of Engineers, under contract. I am seriously interested in working. I am nicknamed "Mighty Mouse", and I can outwork many men. Attention to detail, safety, quality, and integrity. Superb references.

Manoj-You will never convince me of anything. My husband is a Mexican National, who resides in Mexico. He is following immigration law and applied for papers and is following the established procedures to gain his papers. There are reasons for the laws in place. It's called an inspection process: inspection of background, inspection for infectious diseases, inspection for mental illness.
My husbands brothers and sisters live here, and they are illegal alien immigrants. The things they do to twist our system make me appalled. I really dispise them, and they are the family of the man I love. I choose not to associate with them. I know the process of immigration and I do believe in it. I also believe that VISAS should be restricted. Do not tell me that there are not enough workers for jobs here, as last month 2.7 million people were laid off in the US from their jobs. Also I have traveled extensively throughout Mexico and have seen the thousands of miles of former US factories which have relocated there, taking US jobs out of the US. Mexicans can enjoy a very comfortable middle class job in their own country. I've seen evidence of this with my own eyes. Any Mexican who wants to work, buy a home, car, save money can, in their own country. The jobs are there.

you are the typical idiot that can't see the trees for the forrest.

Illegal immigrants are here of all kinds because the rich hire them. Don't want them don't hire them is they key. Did you notice what happened when the economy took the hit?? Streets are quite empty? Huh????? They can not apply for unemployment enventhough they had FICA and EDD taken out because their TIN is not permanent or valid. Hey what happens to that money anyway???? Hmmmmm.

i am looking for work.whats your number.i am not an immigrant.

I can't be mad at any of you guys that are upset out there because you are all ignorant. Think about, you're mad at, and probably hate people of other races except your own for "taking your jobs" when you should be mad at the guy who hires them. Yeah I'm sure it's a white man. If your wife slept with 20 men would you blame it on the 20 men or your wife. My parents are from Dominican Rep. and we have the same problem with Haitians, but if anyone hires more Haitians than Dominicans ANYWHERE from construction to a restaurant they usually get less or maybe even no business.

Contractors are going to cheap man that can almost do his work and thats about it.And home owner and every other owner are going too hire the cheap man

IF ANYONE CAN HELP I'LL BE WAITING!

to Mary in Rockville, Maryland, It's the illegal immigrants not the immigrants!! Wake up!! Americans have no problem with people from other countries coming here legally through Ellis Island. Stop skipping the word illegal when refering to all the people sneaking over the southern border as just immigrants. They are IllEGAL IMMIGRANTS! They are not here legally and are taking all our jobs and not just the low paying jobs. They are taking the high paying jobs too.

Chris in Bartlett, Illinois said: BLAME IT ON THE IMMIGRANTS, THERE TAKING OVER EVERYTHING.......

I am jobless but don't agree with you because your forefathers were immigrant too and they played a very important role in the making the USA the only super power of the world. Therefore it is not justified to blame immigrants. I will blame the business community which transfered out jobs overseas. Actually they are the people who made us suffer as well as our economy and besides the business community our government is equally responsible for their policies.

OK OK FORGIVE ME ALL OF YOU. FIRST FOR MY "SPELLING/GRAMMAR" AND ABOUT SAYING IMMIGRANTS INSTEAD OF "ILEGALS IMMIGRANTS", YOU GOT MY ATTENTION, SO WHAT'S THE POINT, ARE WE HERE TO CRITISIZE OTHERS PEOPLES GRAMMAR/SPELLING OR SOMEONE THAT'S WILLING TO HELP! LISTEN U ALL; I'M NOT AN ILEGAL IMMIGRANT. I'M A USA CITIZEN BORN IN NEW YORK AND RAISE IN PUERTO RICO. LEFT THERE IN 1992 BECAUSE NO WORK!!!EVEN THERE, THERE IS PEOPLE LOOKING FOR WORK AND YET THEY STAY THERE TRYING TO MAKE A LIVING WELL NOT ME. I DECIDE TO COME HERE FOR A BETTER LIFE & STRUGGLE FOR WORK WITH TWO SMALL KIDS. WENT TO COLLEGE AND GRADUATED, WAS AN ADMIN. AND AN HR ASSISTANT. GOT LAYOFF CAUSE THE 911 TRAGETY AND SINCE I HAVE BEEN BOUNCING FROM WORK TO WORK & SO ON. THE GOOD THING IS THAT I KNOW A LITTLE BIT OF EVERITHING. 4 YEARS AGO I STARTED WORKING AS A SUB CONTRACTOR IN THE PAINTING BUSINESS WICH I LOVE. LATELY IS GETTING SO SLOW, I'M BARELY MAKING IT ON MY OWN. IF ANY OF YOU HAVE WORK FOR A WOMANPLEASE COMMENT. AND FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE HERE JUST TO CRITIC...PLEASE TAKE A STEP FORWARD TO THE PEER CLOSE TO UR HOME. U KNOW WHO U ARE. AMÉN CON ACENTO.

Wow!!! Blame this and blame that, who cares!!! get a life and find a job. Blah blah blah..sound like all of you have a pathetic life since you're crying about the little things. Be happy that GOD gave you life just for another day. Amen...

EVEN UR NAME IS TWISTED LOLOLOLOL!!!

Actually, some Americans are not immigrants. My family is Lakota and Lumbee. Which is Indian, east coast and midwestern indian. Not India Indian, but original first people Indian or slanged American Indian or Native American. So many immigrant ancestors of others would have died if my ancestors had not fed them and taught them to survive, and healed them when they were starving and diseased upon arrival to America.

We were always here. First.

And many in RC are not jobless anymore. The IRS has removed many of the non-tax paying, criminal Illegal aliens from RC. LOL. I guess the IRS is more empowered than Homeland Security, they incarcerate then deport. LOL.

I have never seen so much hatefullness & racism in this forum in my life. Here is the thing; IRS wil send 10 M illegals immigranst to their repective countries and the 200 B of then will cross the boder, travel in the bottom of the ship or craw under an airplane just to get here, lol, so how's that. I'm getting starter, dude!!!

P.S. do you have work for me, cause i'm under employed. lol.

i'm back with my bad spelling. seyall tomorrow
