I live in a small town where the largest employer is closing and 1200 people are will lose their jobs. I have taken off a couple of years to be home with my 23-mo old. An ad ran in the local paper for a job that is -EXACTLY-- what i want and need. Base + commission, own hours, overhead paid, an existing book of business to be handed over to the new person. The retiring person will train for several months. It just so happens that I worked for the person who owns the company 20 yrs ago in high school. It also happens that his now partner I babysat for 25 years ago. However, I have been gone for 18 yrs--since high school. So although I am a home town girl, I have no reputation. But, I had a very very successful ride with my "current" employer, (I sell insurance,and have been maintaining my current accounts only). Rookie of the Year, #1 Sales in state, etc. Should I ask some of my accounts, policyholders to send a tasteful referral? Im competing with people w/ yrs of experience.

For many people (not all, I know.) it is a goal to be wealthy. So why are so many people hateful and spiteful towards people that have actually worked towards and accomplished this? So they gloat a little, or buy nice things... don't they have a right to be proud of their accomplishments? Why are people so volatile towards the wealthy?

Does the IT Department in india have any facility to view online details of tax filed/return and PAN details for a person/HUF?

Also is any registration or other formalities required for such services?

I heard something years ago about companies not being allowed to give bad employment references - can anyone confirm this?

The reason I ask is that I'm currently temping whilst waiting for something permenent to come along and in my last assignment the agency I was with got pissed off as they claimed I left a week early without giving any notice, when infact I had actually left on the agreed date. Also, I've just registered with another agency for a temp job coming up soon (only a 5 month contract in data entry), would they bother seeking references for such a short contract?

Anyone in the know, cheers.
