Business & Finance - 29 September 2006

I got to start somewhere right? but what do you guys think? how am I supposed to get hired when my resume's too short? or wait, let me rephrase - WHERE am I supposed to get hired? If there are any employers out there (especially from retail stores), please share your perspectives.

I only had one job, but I'm pretty good with many things like communication, housekeeping, organizing, flexible hours, punctual, dependable, and other possibly helpful qualities. I'm not necessarily aiming for a retail clothing store, but anything will do. I just sometimes have a fear of dealing with angry customers because I fear that if I argue back, things will turn out horribly wrong. So fast food places for me are definitely out of the question. Anyway, back to my main question, would you guys (assuming I'm speaking to employers) hire someone with a "starting" or small resume like me? If not, then what should I do?

I was hoping that someone might be able to help me out. I am trying to figure out how to resolve $74,000.00 in debt. This exists due to the fact that my husband is a compulsive spender and has strong armed me into purchases that didn't need to be made. He works full time and has been working overtime from his job when it is available to try to make ends meet. I have run my own home-based daycare for two years now taking care of everyone else's chidlren but I currently only care for one child every other week. I have also been looking for something more stable. Any ideas/suggestions/help that you can lend would be sooo greatly appreciated!

Thanks sooo much for your time and assistance! You are all true angels!

P.S. We have completely stopped making ALL unnecessary purchases but we are at a point where affording food and gas are a joke!

I make candles and jewellry and cookies, cute homely things like that. Until now they labels have said .. Candles by Sarah, Cookies by Sarah etc. Boring and dull!
I have a few shops now interested in stocking my things, but I can't think of a good business name.
I'd like to get a cute (ish) original name that'll cover any handmade items I sell. Now does anyone have any ideas?
Free candle or other gift for the best answer =D

I am trying to think of a name for my business. I will be selling facial masks, hair products, and skin products that are all natural. What do you think some good names are? All I can think of is Naturally Beautiful, do you like that?
My name is Ellen Marie, if you want to use my name.

My husband wants to start our own clothing line. I created a symbol for it. What do I need to do to protect our logo? I was reading about patents, trademarks, and copyright. I wasn't sure what I really needed. Looked like I needed a trademark, but I'm not sure. Any help for someone who knows from experience and not just guesting is very much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I have work-study at the Career Services department of my college. My work-study supervisor told me that I should start charging and contracting to do freelance desktop publishing. And she knows I am in the process of creating a portfolio, to make money on the side.
She is a very by the books type person and she doesn’t want to bend any rues to help any
Students. BUT she also is an author, but she wants me to design a flyer and cover for her
book under work-study pay. I don't think this is fair because I am being paid by the school , and if she went out to contract someone she would have to pay out of pocket, a lot more than $7 an hour.
I am shocked because she is trying to take advantage of me and is coming up with all these ideas for a flyer but she isn’t sayin anything about paying me, she is trying to make it under work-study, what should I tell my hypocrite boss?

There are so many 'Do it yourself' sites out there that allow you to self-publish... but what about submitting your work for review to a publisher in the hopes that they will like it and 'sponsor' you? How do you find out who these publishers are?

I interviewed for a job two weeks ago. They seemed to be very interested in me, and said they would call me back in a week or so for a second interview. I have not heard back from them, nor have I got a rejection letter. What should I think or do?

Just last week I got a "very satisfied" evaluation and this week I was fired because I cried at my desk and made a personal phone call. What is unsatisfactory work performance or should I take legal action for being fired for something stupid?
