Senior Member
Able bodied male mid 40's needs work. I'll take anything within a 30 mile distance of Villa Rica. I'm a Landscape Horticulturist by trade but will to do anything. I've got kids and the utilities are being cut off soon. I enjoy outside work, and light construction equipment, but can operate computers, do filing, janitorial work, warehouse work, like I said I'll take anything. I have been out of work for six months and have had some pickup work but nothing steady and have exhausted savings. Thanks for reading my ad, I'm not looking for a handout just an opportunity.
Below is a copy of my resume, hopefully it shows what skills and esperience I have that can be of use to somebody.
Merry Christmas

Have you tried GDOT? I mean I am not sure what they have going on right now, but I know they are doing a ton of projects in and around Atlanta. Also, if you dont mind me asking, what level of education do you have? I don't know a lot of people hiring or anything, but I would love to help you search for one over the internet and help with providing leads for you.
