Business & Finance - 25 August 2006

I was exploring Yahoo! last week and came across this great website that had all kinds of information on kiosks and home based businesses. It had links to lots of business websites with opportunities. Does anyone know of such a website. I thought I added it to my favorites, but I didn't.

Hey Guys,

I have a reached a point in my career where I will have to make the call to move further as to what do I sincerely desire to do. Whatever I am doing right now is a reasonably paid, decent job with good people around me. But I am just not feeling right about it - I do not think I belong there. I have to make a decision which will have to be honest enough to my perseverence and branching off from carefully tailored calls. I am currently in IT and have never been satisfied with what I have had to deliver - both in terms of work and in terms of characterization that you tend to imbibe out of work. I would like to make a switch over to the field of consultancy - but I remain undecided about whether I need to get into the Technology,Business,Management,Functional consulting area. I would like to know what one is supposed to possess for taking on such a role and executing it successfully. I like the perks that come along with these roles such as travelling, meeting new cultures.

How many people who are a member of a small religious group do you know who are unemployed? I know a few people in such groups, and all of them have had good jobs straight out of university. This seems just a little too convenient, am I being paranoid? I know it's not a part of the application process, but people who know people will help each other, especially, it would seem, in church groups. I know other people who are not in church groups who have all had to fight and struggle their way through university, unemployment, training for work schemes, etc to get where they are today. Is this just coincidence?

I know this sort of thing goes on outside of church groups too, and I don't think that's at all fair either.

if you have lived there, or know someone who has, do they really do monthly inspections of the apartments? It is a low income complex, so i believe it would be the same at any other low income complex, right?

I've never held a management position, but I was just offered one for a jewelry department at national retail store. I have a list of questions, if you can answer any from experience I'd so much appreciate it.

I'd like to get our team toghether for a short meeting to introduce myself, etc.. but there's really only one person working in jewelry at a time, and I'm pretty sure I couldn't arrange a meeting where they can clock in, would I have to stop in at different times for each employee, or perhaps introduce myself in writing and post it when I first start as 'jewelry sales coordinator'? I don't want to start things off in an improper way, I do want to talk to each person individually to get to know them. How about a meeting outside of work?
2. Best way to motivate employees?
3. Is it undesirable to become friends with team members? Read online that it's a good thing, but also read that it's not. What's your experience?

I'll post other ?'s under details. Thanks!

I was watching a program on how US gold coins are made and they said a $50 gold coin cost over $500 dollars. What's wrong with this picture? If it's only worth $50 bucks why would anyone pay $500 for it?
