dont take this the wrong way ....things are tough all over . I really doubt anyone can point you to any cargo job in vegas or almost anywhere west for that matter . I think you should bite the bullet and continue to instruct .
now is a really bad time to not want to flight instruct .

My advice on this subject is alway the same. When you get to Vegas start knocking on hangars and throwing your resume out everywhere. I wouldn't stop at cargo. There's a lot of GA and 2 satellite airports (that I know of) in the area. This is a constantly changing industry. Someone's loosing an aircraft, someone else is gaining one and may need crews. It may be a short term gig, or could be a career. But you've got to pound the pavement.
