I've been looking for a job for sometime now and nothing. I was a food and beverage director / manager from New York. now in Punta Gorda, and want to know if there are any jobs available around here in that field or similar. I've been in the business for a long time and very good and very people friendly. Well, if you know of any let me know Thanks so much!

Just curious, did you look before moving, I am assuming there were other circumstances.

I would never move w/o having a job first.

punta gorda is a retirement haven. you should look in orlando being such a touristy area. you should be able to find something at one of the many resorts including disney.

I'm sure the OP moved to Punta Gorda something other than employment. Most unemployed people do not have the money to just get up and move to Orlando or anywhere else. Keeping a roof over there head is their priority, and the chance of missing a mortgage payment is a just a short step away from being homeless.

Unfortunately, it's difficult for the vast majority of people to find any gainful employment in Punta Gorda or in SWFL for that matter. The area is becoming economically depressed, layoffs common place and no plans for an economic infrastructure being developed in the future.

I assume you have tried places like the RitzCarlton in Sarasota and Naples or other large hotel chains. Other than that, I am not aware of any job openings.
Best of luck to you.

I know this has nothing to do with your field but if you need work bad I'm sure you could get something out at the Walmart distro on Rt.17 I have heard they are always looking for help, just a thought. Also the season is almost upon us so things should pickup in your line of work.
