Jobs Simply

I've been in Livonia, Michigan for 2 months now and have had NO LUCK with finding a job. Help!?

I'm originally from Los Angeles and built an extensive career in the retail banking industry (executive management/training) and have been met with such dismal failure in finding a decent job here in the southeastern region of Michigan. I understand the job market here is somewhat dead, however can someone PLEASE shed some light as to which resources are the best in terms of finding a solid job that pays over $15/hr or a salary of $35K and above? Are there any good companies around here that I can actually walk into, hand in my resume and meet with someone?

1. Michigan and Jobs didn't know we were allowed to put those words in the same sentence!
2. Try temp agencies. Things are dead there so most companies probably have people laid off they could call back before hiring someone from out of state. Try for jobs a long way from home away from Detroit where you may not have as many unemployed people around you.
3. IT DEPEND ON LUCK
4. Any chance of escaping michigan ? >
5. I work for a trucking company that delivers about 40-50 loads a week to BASF in Lavonia, MI. If you learn to drive a truck, which isn't all that hard, and don't mind being away from home a few nights a week, you can easily make $900-$1100 per week. And yes, we do have women that work at the same company as I do.
