moving to north dakota (Dickinson, Williston: to buy, restaurants, oil)

[cslogan]

hi everyone--I am considering moving to North Dakota with my boyfriend who works on the pipeline.Do you think I could find any work either working in a restaurant or even running my own laundry service for the workers as I have done here since last March? The job finished up here in Ms. this last week and I have done nothing since except job hunt.Thanks

there shall be plenty of restaurants for you to work in whichever city you move to, no worries about that. I don't think laundry will be too big of a deal, because people here don't worry so much about how they take care of their clothes, anything that you can't just move from the washer to the dryer, people tend not to buy.

I think the laundry would be a good one actually. I worked out west in the Williston-Dickinson areas years ago in the oil industry. The guys without wives DO like those services. They made the good money, and dished out $$ to have the convenience of things done for them. Huttah is correct about restaurant work...there isn't a town in ND begging for service type employees.
