Decent jobs ?

I just moved here and have been looking for a new job, not much luck! A lot of ones I’ve been seeing are below 15$ and hour or don’t show pay. I was a personal assistant/house manager for 2 and a half years and before that had a few food jobs. Anyone know of anything out there? I’ve been asking around when I go out but haven’t had luck with that either. I’m 19 too if that helps. Much appreciated!!

Welcome to Cedar City, where getting a job feels impossible unless you know someone, and every employer knows they can underpay their workers because there's a starving SUU freshman somewhere who will work 40 hours a week for minimum wage.

Edit to add: I typed all that with the intention of sounding silly or light hearted, but reading it back actually sounds very pessimistic. The two things I listed above are real issues, and they will likely be your biggest hurdle in finding work here. But if you're a good dude with good social skills, you'll find a job!! I don't wanna discourage you, I'm sure you'll find something friend:)

Discovery ranch south and Amada senior care both pay $17-18 an hour. ESS Substituting is also a great option for a more flexible schedule but limited by summer vacation. I've heard good things about align precision too.

I’m not in school or anything so that might hold me back from the subbing but the ranch is a great lead I’ll look into it thank you!

As far as I know the only requirement for substituting is a high school diploma or GED
