    The best way to find work is to talk to local business owners. They talk to each other and that's how work is found. Cold canvas and put yourself out there by talking to people. You'll need to get your resume printed.. do you have a career development centre in your area? They're linked to local development boards or councils..

    Good luck!

    Your local public library should have PCs and networked printers that you can use at a low cost per printed page. Also, the librarian should be able to point you in the direction of some job skills services in your area (unless that's what you mean by JSA?). It sounds to me like your resume needs a good working over, try a skills based resume and not a chronology based one. I had a patchy job history and the skills based resume got me happily back into the workforce.
