Love Floridia and Floridian's

I just love Florida. My husband had applied for jobs on the west side without any luck. They all seem to hire residents. We vacation in Sandkey and Marco Island for years. My daughter swam with the Largo swim team. One of these days. I will be there. Liz

Liz, Come on down! I hope your hubby can find something soon. Vickie J.

What does he do? I have a number of connections. I'm in Naples.

Hi Nili, I don't really know if you can hel*****t but here goes.... He is a Township Manager with a budget of 66 million dollars a year. He is also the Zoning Officer and had worked in Code Enforcement. He applied for the position of Building Official in Cape Coral last Feb. (never heard from them). Building Official in Fort Meyers this past July (hired a Florica resident). Assistant City Manager in Cape Coral 2 weeks ago. Haven't heard anything yet. Guess we keep trying. If you hear of anything similiar to these positions please let me know. Thank you so much for your interest. Liz [email protected] (my email address)

http://jobs.colliergov.net/ Collier County has a lot of positions open in this area and similar ones. The country government is much more robust and has a lot more jobs open than the various cities. Here in FL, many areas are outside of city jurisdiction. He should also try Lee County, FL, which is the county where Fort Myers and Cape Coral are located. Separately, a number of builders are looking for job superintendents, if he feels comfortable with that position. If he is apply for any particular collier county job, let me know and I'll see what we can do for him.

Nili - I sent you a private message. I hope you got it. Liz

Any Connection in Collier County Gov't? I'm thinking about retiring from banking after 24yrs. Barbi!

Soon. I hope real soon. I am ready to retire from advertising and marketing after 33 years. Liz

Nili - thank you for asking. Liz

Liz I am a transplant almost 11 yrs now from Montogomery Co, Pa to Lee County, Fl. Can't advise on what the job situations are here as we were retired went we built our home here, came on vacation bought a house instead of a postcard, several months later in 96 we were living here. I feel like a Floridian now, have no intentions of moving back to frigid weather. Keep pushing him on the applications, something will open. Sending warm wishes from So. Fort Myers, though its pretty chilly this morning.(52 degrees)
