I want to move from Utah, and I'm a little confused about some cities, and they are: Denver/CO, Portland/OR and Seattle/WA. Actually I'd like to go to a place where there is more diversity, more culture, and open-minded people, and also a secure and nice place to be. What do you think about these cities? In your opinion wich one is better? Thanks for helping!!!

Why does it always take weeks just to process a simple form. I need to get a certified license history (3 years) and it is going to take about a month once I submit the form.

I am in need of telemarketers in the East Bay Area of California. Besides Craig's List, does anyone know of any websites to advertise this which will not cost me a fortune. The fees on sights like HotJobs are a lot - ($349.00, one job posted for one month!) Thank you!

I have been offered a job, and have to have a criminal background check. I have never been convicted of anything but I have recently been charged and I am fighting these charges. Will this show up seeing as im not convicted, and if so can my potential employer refuse to hire me based on something I'm charged with but not yet convicted of? Worried...

We are a graphic design firm & contract graphic designers to work on a freelance basis. Besides using a contract, how can we keep the designer from contacting our client directly & offering their services (cutting us out)? Need professionals or experienced businesspersons to reply with valid advice--thank you in advance.

Want to get a backpack but work in a white collar environment and might be viewed as a high school or college student. Backpack is easier to carry around and less straining on the back. Messenger looks more business friendly but less convienent. Your takes. Thanks.

I'm just wondering why Graphic Artists, Web Designers, and Database Programmers do not advertise their small business in local Newspapers, Theatres, Mass Transit, and the like (eg AFFORDABLE, sustaining advertising). In my town, there are A LOT of these types of business, and very high quality, but none of them advertise. No one seems to know why, they say, "Well, my competition doesn't, so why should I?"

I have the capital to advertise my Database Programming/Web Design company, I have a sustainability plan for the advertising for 6 months, and it feels odd to have no competition in these channels.

Is it snafu? Is it a bad idea?

$600/mo would go to advertising in three channels, sure it's a lot, but preliminary ad budgets in previous months show this would pay off.

How can an idea make SO MUCH SENSE but no one is doing it?

if this fable was read to you as a kid and you understood it, raise your hand.
I just researched it on Wikipedia and Yahoo search and the story refers to the "hare" as a "she". The moral to the story is that "slow and steady [SHE] wins the race". Woohoo...women rock! Are there any other fables or stories you can tell us where women win.

Not a typical school backpack. Something simple and nice. A backpack evenly distributes weight throughout the body especially carrying heavy loads, but debating whether to just get a messenger bag instead because it is more corporate business friendly. Your input. Thanks..

Hi all. I got a job today at a "mom n' pop" type warehouse, where I have been given the title "Picker/Packer." Now, the owner, Chuck, stated that I will be given an hourly rate of $4. Is that minimum wage? Also, I will be required to make deliveries in my truck, and when I asked about gas mileage reimbursement, he stated "after 90 days." Well, I don't have my GED, and I just got fired from McDonald's for putting my own spin on the drinks and burgers (i.e. Ketchup on the Big Macs). Well, I think I can do the job, but Chuck's wife Dottie Lee, smacked me on my buttocks really hard, and laughed. I was so mad! Should I just take it and hope it gets better? What if Dottie Lee becomes more aggressive and grabs my manmeat? How can I get mileage reimbursement? Gas is expensive! What is minimum wage? $4 doesn't sound like a lot of money!

I am thinking of purchasing a home and making repairs and would then like to sell it as a HUD home---I am not a real estate agent or broker, nor a construction type---just curious what all is involved. Is this a good way to make a bit of extra money and potentially help others? (Serious answers preferred.)

Gambling is defined as "any matter or thing involving risk or hazardous uncertainty."

Ponzi is defined as "a swindle in which a quick return, made up of money from new investors, on an initial investment lures the victim into much bigger risks."

Can someone explain to me how this is differnet?
I want to create a company that runs the same way as a "HYIP" or "Ponzi" but do it legally, and honestly. The only reason its illegal is because of stupid Charles Ponzi who lied to his "investors." Isn't that it?

Why can't I create a real, legal business, that does this same thing but tells the investors what they're getting into. IT"S GAMBLING and people do it all the time. I did it, and lost on some, won on others. I don't understand why i'm being told over and over again that I can't do this. Please help.
