Yeah That was something my buddies hated about being the night audit. The drunken idiots that would come from the bar across the parking lot.

The drunken idiots from across the street aren't nearly as bad as the drunken idiot wedding parties. We have 2 this weekend, so it's 70 people wasted singing " DO YOU HAVE TO, DO YOU HAVE TO, DO YOU HAVE TO LET IT LINGER "

Yo dawg you can buy yourself a burner and upon setup type in a zipcode to where you want the are code to be and BAM!!!!! You have a local cell number. You can also set up a Google voice account on your droid with a new phone number and be able to use it whenever. I think the catch is you can't receive an actual call but it goes to a voice mail that you will get an alert of having one pending and you can return the call.
I could have this wrong but if I do its close.
I'm pretty sure you can figure it out with the helping hand of the googzster

If you go buy a track phone you can just put in a Colorado area code and it will give you a number bro simple no hassle!

My resume is pretty stacked with experience. I've had a steady job aside from a 6 month gap here and there since I was 11.

I've had several out of state jobs. Typically you apply, a hiring manager will call you to discuss benefits/options/pay etc., then they fly you out. It's not uncommon to do an initial Skype or video call either.
It's 2014. It would be foolish for an employer to limit themselves geographically.

I don't think most places are going to lineup employment without the interview process. I think you are probably going to have to try and line up several interviews in a small area for a specific time period and hope for the best.

Most employers start with a phone interview and if you pass that will move to a Skype interview as badchad alluded. Only then will you be flown out for in person interviews. It's a pretty standard process.

Depends on what you're being hired for, sure ain't flying someone out to interview for a $10hr position

It depends on how they feel about you after the phone interview. Sometimes there will be a second phone interview, sometimes a video interview, or sometimes you will just get flown out after the first phone interview.

That's true. I'm talking about professional positions, not working at McDonald's.
