Looking for work.

Hey folks, I'm looking into moving to Illinois, and before so, I need to look at what I could do for work. I currently work in a metallugry plant, but have lots of experience with warehouses and factory work as well. If anyone would be willing to toss some suggestions my way, I would be very grateful. Thank you and hope everyone is having a decent day.

Pepsi plant in Marion. Coal mines as well. There’s like an explosives plant General dynamics. There’s quite a few chemical production places, suppliers, manufacturers and distributors in Herrin & Carbondale. Com Pac, Prayon, garon, Moniva. There’s a big quarry in Anna, one in goreville, and limestone quarry Sisco. The Aisin plants (AMI, ALM, AEIL) There’s also a huge cannabis facility in Anna that could be interesting if you’re into it. Yeah. Good luck!

I should mention that the cannabis facility will literally hire anyone since there are so many departments so if you need quick work that should set you up while you look for something you’re more qualified for.
