got any advice

here's my problem,living here in IL companies close up shop for the winter. maybe they'll work a couple guys thru winter but not steadily.i worked for a company that had alot of out of state work until they folded a year ago but not the norm so usually come spring i have to shop myself around again. here in the chicago area almost all non union companies have lots of hispanics working for them, and i am fluent in spanish and have been a foreman for a few companies so i seem a great prospect to owners. problem is i was promoted so fast because of my language abilities i didnt have the chance to learn everything so i lack experience. so here's the dilema im tired of bouncing around from yard to yard every year, i want to stay with company and have a sense of security. if i return to the union id have to be 3rd year apprentice where i left off which the pay is comparible to being a non union foreman plus most non union have terrible benefit packages,if any at all. but i'd be a small fish in a big pond. when i apply to non union companies they see my resume and want me to be a foreman and if i say no but id like to work on 1 of your crews they suddenly lose interest in me 1 guy even was honest with me and told me he'd like to but thought i wouldn't stick around if i got an offer to be a foreman somewhere else. i was honest with him and he was honest with me, but it still got me nowhere. so any advice would be appreciated. hopefully i didnt spark a huge debate union vs non and the use of illegal labor not my intention. thanks, jj

yeah I got license and car TRG. I had thought about my response last nite and thought it may have been a little hasty. One thing I learned when I was traveling roofing lifetime fitness centers was you gotta go where the works at. I guess I was worried about where id live and leaving/ relocating my family, but opportunity only knocks once. So yes soldierboy I am definitely interested.

If you can drive,go, I went to pittsburgh once,and Indiana twice for people I met on here,I live in NY,6 HRS TO PA,AND 12 1/2 TO INDIANA--Had a good time,and was treated well each time
