I'm really frustrated because I'm doing research on this company who will get me started with my dollar store with supplies, fixtures, cash registers, etc., but my husband wants me to try to research and find all these things myself. He says we may be able to save money. I tried to tell him that this company would set everything up for me for $32,000. I'm not saying I couldn't do it myself, but I would have to find and hire people myself to move fixtures and install them, not to mention that this company will help me with my lease negotiation. I can't do all the research myself as I already have a job and kids. Not to mention that my getting all the information and supplies by myself will take time and in the mean time someone else will have opened a store in the area I'm looking at, which does not have any dollar store at all and is in need of one.

I don't know what to do. I'm even thinking of divorcing my husband just so we can liquidate all of our assets and do what I want

Okay, we've all seen them from time to time; those jobs that supposidly let you work from home answering surveys or things like that using your computer. My question is, does anyone here actually do this or work in this? If so, is it really what it states it does and the money it says?

Who has the lowest rates and easy approval? I need to consolidate my business card purchases asap. Credit history is not too much of a problem, however line of credit is important.

The American economy is growing weaker, and the Chinese economy is the fastest growing in the world. Most manufacturers now have their products made in China and are only interested in the profit, not the social or economic impacts, so why use the US Dollar??

I'm working as a substance abuse counselor and I'm going to do a project with my clients where I teach them some job skills and hopefully help them look for a job.

I was wondering what kind of jobs a felon can get, particularly if they have a DUI or drug posession charges(some may have 1 DUI or drug charge, others may have more, I'm not really sure). And also, is it even possible for them to get a job other then at McDonalds, etc? They're all drug addicts and many are on probabtion and recieve frequent drug tests that come up clean (if they don't come up clean they get kicked out of our program). We're in FL and my clients are teens to 50-somethings. Please be more specific then just "being honest" that's only step 1, I'm looking for actual job options here. Thanks.

Let's say you buy a pair of $100 shoes. Those shoes were probably made in a sweatshop in China or Bangladesh or Indonesia. The company probably paid the people who made those shoes about 10-15 cents per hour. It probably cost the company a couple dollars to make the shoe and ship it to the United States. Do you know how much the company spends to market that shoe? Something like $20! And then the rest is all profit for the corporation and its millionaire CEO.

Why doesn't this make more people mad??! It sure makes me mad!
The corporation is exploiting not just poor laborers in third world countries, but American consumers by overcharging the consumer for goods which were much cheaper to produce.

But I think a lot of the problem is with the consumer. The consumer is victim to advertising, and fickle. The consumer wants to be convinced, and needs celebrities in TV commercials to convince him.

What can we do to stop this?

I'm a nurse at a small nsg. home and work from 10 pm-6am. I work Sun, Mon, Tues and every other Wed. I worked last Wed. I got off work at 6am this morning and have been awake for 26 hrs now. The nurse that is waiting for her relief to show up called and said that I'm on the schedule to work tonight. I haven't looked at the schedule in 2 yrs because my days have never changed. I called the nurse that should be working and explained I worked last Wed. so he should work this Wed. Am I wrong or right? I know I'm wrong for not looking at the schedule but I never needed to. If someone was calling in I was usually asked if I could work. Also...I was going to ask the other nurse if he could work for me one day next week but there is noway I can do that now....they are all mad at me!!

I heard (by value at least) that it is the Salvation Army, followed by the Catholic Church. The second, I believe. The first seems less likely.
