seriously. im a slacker. and i wouldnt mind getting into some kind of profession that doesnt require a whole lot of doing. me and my friend were talking about how cool it would be to have a job as a slacker...someone would ask you what you do and you'd answer "yeah, I'm a slacker". Nice! but yeah. a serious job that pays good and you dont have to be that smart (yeah thats me) or have to do very much and did i mention pays good? oh, and i dont want to be hearing no "president of the united states" stuff, got it?

Hi all,

Here's the scenario: a salaried teacher needs to find a substitute. They have to pay the substitute out of their own pocket. Is this illegal or only unethical?

Imho, I think it is both, as the the substitute's wages would be untaxed, and the teacher would be paying with post-tax dollars.

I have a baby, and my husband and I are currently both working. My parents have been babysitting, but since my mom became manager at work she's there all the time...and my dad may be going back to work due to financial needs. This puts me in a predicament, as we cannot all schedule our hours around each other to make sure that someone is there with my baby at all times. Therefore, I am going to need to quit my job to be a stay-at-home mom. I still need to work, however, or we'll be in a tough spot. Does anybody have any ideas or know of a legitimate business that has openings where a person can work from home? I see all the time ads and such for stay-at-home moms who start their own business and everything, but I don't even have the funds for that. I'm looking for a company job which would allow me to work from home on the computer or answering phones (I could get a cell phone to use as a business phone) or anything like that. I am in desperate need of advice. Can anyone help?

I am looking into schooling for paralegals. When I received the information, it was for legal secretary. I thought it was the same thing, until I saw a reference to being an assistant to a paralegal as a job option. What is the difference and is it worth it to go for legal secretary as a career option, as opposed to a paralegal? Thanks!

I got a job offer for 60K/yr as a logistics analyst in south NJ for Sony. I had been laid off 6 mos. back, but after looking for work for a while I kinda gave up and got myself admitted into the Masters in Accounting program at UT Austin. Now after 1 month into my new program one of the companies I had interviewed 40 days back finally offerre me 60K for a job. I really like Austin and and doing OK in the accounting program. I feel that if I was in a finance/ accounting to begin with I wouldnt have to wait for so long to get another job. SO what do you all think...should I continue in the accounting masters or take up the job? I have substantial scholarships for the MAcc program plus its Austin, so thats a big draw. On the other hand the salary is 60K. WHich would be better in the long run?

P.S. I was terminated from my last consulting job working for a tiny company after just 2 mos.

Multitasking is clearly not the most efficient way to build a car, so why would anyone organize any other workflow to encourage constant interruption and discourage any logical sequence when you have other options?

The mantra of multitasking seems like a dubious excuse to work with no rhyme or reason.
