Hey guys, Me and my friend are about to embark on a journey from the small town of Lenoir in North Carolina to somewhere around Goodyear/Phoenix area of Arizona. Now the assistance I need  is kinda odd. I am hoping to get some good replies and not a lot of bullshit.

Anyway, My first name is Thomas, and my friend an I leave on the 12 of June. Now the first thing I need assistance with, is work. I have a job semi sorta lined up. The guy seems a bit..Odd. Granted he does managed 20 some stores, but I would like a definite Yes the job is yours, or no its not. Now its selling cars and midway chevrolet and selling product is something im fairly good at. Been doing it for a several of years now. But I havnt heard yes you will have a job when you get out here, or no you wont ect ect. So, a: is there anywhere that is hiring in that area, that pays pretty decent and is full time hours, or B: if Im lucky and someone who reads this needs a hard worker who has experience as a Automotive Technician, Automotive Parts Pro (Sales) Manager as a Parts Pro, Automotive Sales Representative, Warehouse labor, Forklift operation, Counter sales/Management, or any type of driving as I am a Motor Transport Operator for the United States Army National Guard. (Big rig driver)

We are also looking at houses/apts for rent in the area. We need something two bedroom or bigger, but we dont really want to go over $900 a month in rent. Nice neighborhood, low crime the general things you look for when moving into a new home. We are not to picky, but looking for some new places to check in on. 

An also, Ive heard that most of arizona has pretty low crime rate, the people are friendly and the economy is buzzing. So Im honestly not to worried about the whole starting over thing, but Id just like to have all of my ducks in a row. So any advice, (if youve made this type of move before) Places to check into for work or living, or anything else I may need to know would be highly appreciated.
<bot>: Im moving to the phoenix/goodyear area of Arizona looking for places to put in application that will do on the phone interviews, looking for nice places to live and any advice for two friends moving across the country together.
