Any info on warehouse/driver, etc. jobs in Riverton? (Gillette: transfer, wages)

[georgiainwyo]

Hi all! Being I will have my principal's certificate at the end of the year I'm considering applying for jobs in Shoshoni &/or Pavillion. That means hubby would need to find work in Riverton. He has a lot of background in warehouse/delivery, etc. as well as 17 years in law enforcement. He thought about applying at the prison farm, but doesn't know if he can pass the physical now due to arthritis in his ankle & a recently bummed knee. If any of you know how readily available warehouse or delivery type jobs that pay decent wages are in Riverton please let us know. We need to consider if it would be worth the move financially being we both make really good money in Gillette. If my raise counteracts his decrease in wages it wouldn't pay off for us to relocate. Thanks for any insight on this!

Those are just some ideas. I thought of the security guard because their physical abilities testing is a lot different then regular law enforcement. Don't know if he'd want to do that but it's a thought.

The first 3 listings are GS (Government) positions. Found them HERE. The others came off of state and local jobs and I'm sure you have those URL's. If not, let me know.

Thanks, EH. Yes, I did get the listings off the state site, but didn't have the GS ones. Great ideas! We are just wondering whether this type of move would be feasible. Best bet would be if he could transfer with the co. he is working for here to Riverton, but who knows if they'll have an opening when we are ready. He also worked for Lincare and they really liked him a lot, so maybe they can get him on in Riverton, too. Decisions, decisions!!! Least I can do is apply...then go from there! Thanks for wishing us luck and for all your help!
