I was webmaster for the Bonne Bell company until they downsized me after 6 years and I need to get a job. I can't afford to put a decent turbo or even a fart can on my car without a job
Does anyone know of a Cleveland area company that's looking for a webmaster? I do flash, actionscripting, html, asp, photoshop, freehand and was also tech support for the design department, 18 Macintosh computers.
Here's my portfolio...
Bonne Bell Cosmetics
(teen cosmetics)
Smackers website
(check out the games!)
Smackers online web store
3 Birds Restaurant
(owned by the family that owns the Bonne Bell company)
Joe Bell -Musician
(extremely silent partial owner of the Bonne Bell company)
Cyber Hippie Chic.com
(coworker who was also downsized. Her art, my animation)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John

Are you willing to relocate?
By the look of your work you seem to be pretty talented, and you have over 5 years experience... I would think you would be able to find another job pretty easily if you posted your resume on CareerBuilder, Dice, or Monster.

Can't relocate, strong family ties here. But that doesn't mean I can't virtual commute. What'd you have in mind?

Thanks, I'm on all 3 already. The Cleveland Plain Dealer has listed us as the poorest major city in the nation, beating Detroit (who "won" last year). The economy sucks around here, there's 8 houses on my street that are either in forclosure or being sold during forclosure. Stupid Iraqi war...

The company I work for was hiring a few IT guys, not web administration, but its a job. Only thing is its in Indianapolis.

Thanks for letting me know about the job, but Indy is too far to commute

unfortunately the job of "webmaster" really isn't there anymore.
Your best bet is to learn more web programming IMO. However if the area your in is a low job market the needs for tech people is probably low.
Also learn some CSS layout techniques.
Goodluck man.

It's a possibility, but college won't feed the kids or pay the mortgage.

Maybe just get a job that produces a paycheck? Hell, work at Best Buy or McDonalds if you have to if it's feeding the kids and paying the mortgage you're worried about. You should be old enough and grown up enough to know that if you have to provide for the family, then you need to bring home the cheese. Worry about the webmaster crap later.

Thanks for the advise, but there's no way that a McPaycheck will get the bills paid. My kids are almost old enough to work at Best Buy, I need a real job.

I wasnt trying to say that. But SOME paycheck is better than NO paycheck.
If you've been layed off, you should be collecting unemployment anyways. That's what it's for.
Bump. Still need a job...

Me too, John, look at
http://statejobs.ohio.gov/ there might be something there for you, and most jobs pay at least 24k a year.
I wrote this post a long time ago, a real long time ago, back in 94.
