I've had two jobs. The most recent one either refuses to give a referance or is really snotty to the person. The other one doesn't keep records that far back.

I have called them and got the run around about $200.00 they took from my account claiming to send me an accual credit card. Never heard anymore from them. If you call they say they dont work in customer service. All I want is my money back!

I've been trying to find a second job but it's like pulling teeth! It usually goes like this... Employer will call me, tell me they like my resume/application and asks if I'm still available. I say yes I am and then they say OK some hiring manager or someone else will call back and set up an interview. I never hear from them again!!! I've called a few back only to be told the position is no longer available. This happened to a friend of mine too. Whats going on here?

I am a manager in retail. I have always been a strong manager, but not strong in my people skills. I was accused of talking down to people. I don't see it, but I'd like to better myself not only as a person, but as a manager. So how do I change the perception that these people have of me without kissing their butts?

My manager at the pet store towers over us pee-ons. Hes like 7'5" , smokes like a chimney and what's worse is he's hypogluoseimic so you never know what mood he's going to be in.
Theres even a rumor going around that one day last year, when the manager lost his cigarettes, a former cashier by the name of Jim, was $5 short in his register. When the kid got smart, he was picked up by his legs, held up in the air, and shook until the money fell out of the poor guy.
Anyway, to make a long story short, My manager always has these sayings when we ask him things like;
When do you want me to start mopping the floors?
"That should of been done 15 minutes ago!"
(Sorry, my time machine broke)

Hey, do you know where the tidycat litter is?
"I've got sh*t to do!"
(okay your right, screw the customer)

Do I have enough time to use the restroom?
"Git her done"
(Wow, he must be a comedian)

"your killin me"
(Killin you? Your bigger than Schwarzenegger)

I'm really sick of wells fargo lately, their online banking SUCKS and purchases either don't show up for days or they show up, disappear, then show up later. Yeah I'm not too great with my finances but I'm really sick of their crappy service, so who should I switch to?! Around here we got Bank of America, Washington Mutual, and US Bank...I've heard a lot of good things about Washington Mutual...anyone use em?

I have been looking at different investment ideas and I recently came across the short term CDs. What really bloggled my mind was the 7-28 CDs. I was wondering what is the point of them? Also I was wondering if a 7-28 Day CD pays, let's say, 1% interest could I then open a new CD when the previous one matures and reinvest it plus the interest and then make it 2% with that short amount of time? Or is my thoughts on how CDs work flawed?
