Why do employers deny employment when someone in their opinion is "overqualified". To me that means quite qualified. When I tell them that if they hire me, I won't be looking for another job. This happens regularly and so I have deleted my MA from my resume so I might get a chance. What should one with a BA and MA do when they are applying for a job that only requires a HS diploma or GED. I feel I am doing a injustice to myself by not listing my accomplishments, but at the same time it isn't getting me anywhere. I can't see why anyone would need any degree, because I have been told I have too much education and experience so many times. I realize they think I will keep looking for a job if hired, but I can't get anyone to hire me even though I have toned down my resume. Advice?

It was senior spring break in college, and everyone was planning to go on great trips. I have a great bunch of friends (4 other guys). I also have a girlfriend who I am very close to and serious with, however she never got to make a friends circle that was strong of her own. Because of this, she spent the most time with me and my friends circle and for the most part there was no problem with this. She even became good friends with all of my friends. However, for spring break we went on an all guy trip ( just me and my boys) and had a blast. It was something we had been planning since freshman year. However, she was extremely depressed and upset because she couldn't go and she didn't have anyone else to go with because she wasn't as close to anyone else. She was very mad at me and kept asking my why, and I kept saying because it has to be this way because we want a guys only trip, a last time to be together. Bascially, this was a poor and sexist reason for her, and I agree with her.

Last night I dreamt that I sitting and talking to a girl about exams. In my dream it was the day before my last exams. I dreamt that I had 3 to sit.
The girl I was talking to had blonde curly hair and she wasn't very talkative, she sat with a smirk on her face. I asked her when her exams ended, and she told me they would continue after mine had finished- that she had more to go.
When I looked at her she had a brown spider crawling on the left side of her face and onto her eye. I felt myself hesitate over telling her.
She got up and walked outside onto a patio area. I still didn't know whether to tell her about the spider- but I began to think that she had realised as that was why she had moved outside of the house- to flick the spider off. She didn't remove the spider. My hesitation changed to fear - I felt that if I told her, she would throw the spider at me. My mother walked outside and joined us.

my ex and I are trying to be friends.....and we were cool just a few days ago. Then he suddenly sends me this message online, calling me a liar because I posted an attractive picture of myself online (he asked me about a month ago if I was going to post it, and I told him I wouldn't). It's not like he made me promise not to post it or anything, so I thought it wasn't a big deal, especially since we're just friends now. but, he just.... suddenly, out of the blue, sent me that message, calling me a liar for posting that picture, and blocked me on AIM. I haven't responded to his message yet (it's been a couple of days).... because I don't really know what to do.
It's not the first time he got mad at me over something like this (while we were still broken up). He and I've been through a lot together, and I don't want to mess up our friendship, but it seems like he's always mad at me about something.... and now I feel like I'm dealing with a child or something.
What should I do?

i don't think so, we don't do it with newspapers or television..could you imagine the outcry if the tables were turned? demoncrats would be screaming bloody murder if republicans tried to force comedy central to have alternatives to the daily show or the colbert report...and you know we could not compete with the jockularity of those shows, so we would say.."we will put nothing on to oppose it" , so by law, those shows must be taken off the air...that's how the fairness doctrine works, it silences all views...am radio goes back to farm reports and evangelists 24/7..the funny thing is, and i don't think many think about this is this...the fairness doctrine only covers broadcast media, not cable,...the demoncrats ought to tread very carefully here, can you imagine rush limbaugh on say,..fox news for a couple hours every night??? hmmm...he might just save televisions sagging numbers huh?

I saw a Christian so i went straight up to him and
slapped his right cheek. He looked at me with
rage ready to assault me. I then told him to turn
his left cheek to me. He looked unsettled but complied.
So i slapped his left cheek with convition. I told him
that he should not be angry because he is doing
exactly what Jesus thought him which is to turn the other cheek when slapped on the face. So i decided to slap his
right and left cheek for another four rounds and his tears
were sipping. Well, to his credit he still gave me a smile.
At that point i asked him if he felt proud, and he said
he takes pride in following the teachings of Jesus. As a
closing scene i slapped the **** out of both his right and left cheek simultaneously with my two palms. He looked at me
and spoke to me with his whinny voice. " Now that you
slapped both my cheeks at the same time where shall i
turn? Jesus did not give me this scenario." So i told him to
shut the $%&@ up!!

Since all of us are given the power of choice, who's to tell we're not going to sin again when we get to heaven? After all Lucifier and his followers lived in Heaven and were cast out because they betrayed God. Therefore once we enter heaven, we are all capable of sinning because we still have the power of choice! So what's the point?
