I'm a financial advisor and currently the office is painted a very pale gray (almost white.) It's boring, but what other colors can I get away with?

Being my first job, I have little experience. I currently make around 45k but I get OT, which currently adds ~12.5%. Coming up to a review later this year, it is possible that they will make me a manager that will take away my OT pay.

I'd expect my raise to be more than the "so far" typical 5% but what if it is only 10%...I'd be making less money.

Is this common? I know that I can negotiate but asking for a 17% raise seems pretty extreme (12% to make what I currently make + 5% as a raise).

Any tips? Thanks.

we have this subject - NSTP-CWTS (national service training program - civic welfare training service), we went to a community and observed, then we identified that one of their major problems is having Low Income.. a reason for it is having an unstable job.. could you think of any other major reason for this?

I am 23 and my fiance is 21. We have been dating for 4 yrs and just recently got engaged. We have a 3 yr old son and a child on the way. I am Catholic and he is Jewish and not practicing. I would like to get married in the Catholic church he is totally agenst it. His mother is Jewish and his father is Catholic and they told him they wont allowe him to get married in the Catholic church bc his father had a bad expericence when he belong to the church. They said if he gets married in the church they wont ever talk to him again.

My family is telling me I have to get married in the Catholic church or they wont come to my wedding. They wont pay for my wedding or give me anything unless I get married in the church. They are pressuring us and my fiance is telling me if he keeps feeling pressured the wedding is off. They also think my fiance is controling me (this is not true)bc he is really agenst getting married in a church.

How do I make everyone happy without loosing him?

Hello-
I live in FL so it may differ by state.
Does anyone know if I should contact my lawyer to request an extension on my community service or should I contact the court directly or should I go through my probation officer. I am supposed to have completed 100 hours by Dec 10th and I know I am not going to have it done so I am trying to get it extended.

Me and a few friends were talking about all the new shows this season. When asked what they thought the best new show was, it was a resounding all-for-one Journeyman. I was not surprised, since most of us have similar tastes in television and movies.
I would like to get other people's opinions on this show. What do you think of it?
And of course the big question, do you think it will last and have another season?

My boyfriend wanted to have a huge party for his birthday, but it was way to late to plan and the idea fell through. Now he wants to have a backyard barbeque at his house. What type of food should you have at a barbeque in October? What can you do outside? Let's face it, it's a little chilly. I was thinking either steaks or just hot dogs, maybe some corn on the cob and potatoe/maccaroni salad, baked beans, a garden salad, and of course the cake (well, actually pie because he's not much on cake) for desert. What are some fun things to do at a barbeque?

I have been in a relationship with a railroader who seems financially bogged down by his ex and their 2 kids. He plans to retire in 5 yrs and says he will be set financially with railroad retirement. He hasnt really saved anything for his retirement and I am afraid his ex wife will come in to claim a share of the benefits.
I am 12 yrs younger than he and I dont want to marry him if its going to ruin me financially. I guess what I am saying is I do not want to support a man who made bad financial decisions and is dependent on me to pay his medical bills and support him because his ex wife has 1/2 his retirement and still has her finger in the pie so to speak. He says she is not entitled to retirement from him because she has re married.
He has health problems. Does the railroad continue to insure him or will he have to purchase his own insurance after retirement. We dont talk about it because he plays stupid and acts like he doesnt know the answers. Any helpful suggestions?

I've been using the test drive on my laptop for Word and it's about to expire. I need something else that I can use to take and store notes, even just for another 30 days of test driving. My university won't get the actual Office suite that I'm wanting for a while yet, so I need anything that I can a least test drive for free for a few more weeks or so.
It needs to be something I can write notes, and preferably papers, in and save them for as long as the test drive lasts.
Anything resembling Office's Word would be welcome. If possible, a link to where I can get it or find out more would be appreciated.
Thanks!

...will you ever be content with 1 person?

Or do you always crave the other sex (when you`re in a relationship) ?

Now we have Osama holed up and inaccessible in Pakistan and we sit back and offer rewards while Musharraf negotiates with the sheiks who are hiding him; and we have our allies the Kurds attacking our allies the Turks and neither the US military nor the Iraqi government is willing or able to stop them.

Doesn't this mean that Turkey has the right to invade Iraqi Kurdistan?

The place I worked at last was in a building district right in the Middle of a VERY poor area. I mean POOR.

There were some great organizations there, like the salvation army, and any other kind of place you can think of set up shop because there is so much need.

Now, in the POOREST part of the place, there was a HUGE CATHOLIC SHOP, that did not give out ANY food, but sold like religous Nic Nacs and trinkets.

Why would you pay rent, or buy real estate in an area like this just to place your Idols there for sale? What can a poor homeless person do with an Idol, if they could afford one in the first place?

If you want to go look, it is in Norristown PA one street over from West Airy.
