If you want to work in the US, and you are not a citizen, then you will need a working visa which is usually not very easy to come by. Just something you might want to look into before getting your hopes up.

I haven't done it before. However there are a lot of agencies that arrange short term work placements in the US. The roles are often for things like camp counsellors (no, not people who give advice to the gay community , but people who take care of kids attending camps in their holidays). The agencies either arrange all visas for you, or advise you as to what is required.

It was a day for screaming at inanimate objects.
What this calls for is a special mix of psychology and extreme violence...
