Business & Finance - 25 August 2006

I have read a PA-State approved (Ins. Agents & Brokers) text on the subject but need additional help in mastering the material before taking the exam. A (3 or 4) day intense course focusing on the specifics of the material in preparation for the test would be ideal. A (live) classroom course would be best but an on-line course is ok if no live course is available. .......THANKS

How come when I calculate the postage on a 50 pound package from Thailand on UPS it keeps coming up as in the thousands of dollars? When I do it from china it is only in the hundreds of dollars. What am I doing wrong? Is it really that expensive to ship from Thailand?

I just started a job this week and Im already having doubts about it. See, my problem is is that my boss who is a Loan agent wants me to cold call her current clients to see if there is anything that we can do for them as far as their mortgage or financial needs. My issue is is that I HATE telemarketing and cold calling and thats not something that I want to do to our customers...esp our current customers because I dont want to push them away. What my boss needs is New customers...but all she keeps saying is that she wants to market to her current customers that alreays have a good rate on their home loan. I dont get it. I have even started looking for another job because of this. I am so lost right now I dont know what to do. I DO NOT WANT TO COLD CALL OR TELEMARKET TO OUR CURRENT CUSTOMERS! so, should i look for another job, or what? please tell me what I should do about this situation.

I will rent out my condo by oct 1st. What should I prepare for renting it out. I think I need to prepare forms for renters to sign, but how can I get those forms? Should I ask renters to buy renter's insurance? Should I run their credit? If I need to run their credit, should I need their SSN? How can I know their rental history is good or bad? Please let me know what should I do step by step. Thank you for any help.

This has always bothered me. They always want you to call first. Sure they have so many applicants so this will show if you are really interested but hello, thats why I applied and came in for an interview. I never know if I should call them or not because some places may want you to ,others may get annoyed. They said they'd get in contact with me whether or not I got the job. This was on Wednesday. What would you advise me to do?

I have this on my website, down near the bottom, which is not seen unless you scroll way down.

"Praise God for everything.

The greatest commandment: "Love the Lord, your God..., and love one another as you love yourselves." - Jesus"

One of my customers wrote to complain: "offensive to find a Christian message on your web site" and "it's invasive to mix your personal religious beliefs with your business outreach.

When in the hell will you christian fundamentalists recognize we live in a pluralistic, separation of church and state and business country. And that many of us disdain this in-our-face proseletyzing. Christians or not."

Many of my clients are Christians and I am prone to saying "God bless you." even when someone doesn't sneeze. I do not think separation of church and business is something I have heard before. I am a Christian but know there are differing opinions.

What do you think?
