This is an odd situation to say the least! I started a job 3 weeks ago. When I started, they told me that they hired me because they like the skills I have, but didn't really know how I would be used. Well I had accepted the job, knowing that I would be getting paid more than I have ever been paid. Well I have been there 3 weeks and they still haven't found much for me to do, I spend half of the day killing time. I have been doing a lot of reading, on documentation about the aircraft I work on.

I have talked to my boss, coworkers, everyone and I tell them how I need work to do. They give me something, I knock it out, and ask for more. Unfortunately it just takes them so long to find me anything. I feel like the issue will eventually get resolved...I am just getting tired of reading technical documentation while killing time!

Any suggestions? How would you handle this? I feel like I am almost becoming a nuicense as much as I ask for work.

I just finished paying off some credit card debts I had for a year or two (I'm 22).

In the next couple of years I'd like to get an apartment, a loan and a new car.

What's the best thing I can do right now so that my credit is excellent when I want to do these things?

I'd really prefer NOT to have a credit card at all, but is that my only way?

Thanks!

how come i pay to go to school to get my A+ certification only to make 15$ per hour? while some people i know never even graduated high school is making almost as much as me. is A+ certification really worth it ? making only 15 per hour? shouldn't A+ technician jobs be paying around $17 per hour instead..it seems that getting an A+certification is a waste of time...all that studying just to get $15 per hour..any people with A+ certifications have any comments?

I have a collection agency harassing me and have been told I can report them. First of all, I would not be returning their phone calls if I had no intention on paying them. But they want my checking account numbers before I even have a statement. They said they have sent me two and I stated I did not receive them. THey flat out called me a liar and asked me if I knew how to check my mail box! Then I told them I could pay them next month, they offered me a monthly payment option for three months. Then they asked if I could pay it all. I said I was offered a 3 month settlement and they called me a liar stating they recorded me saying I would pay it all in December, full amount. I was actually called a liar by their supervisor! I was so upset I was in tears. Why would I call them back and try to work something out if I had no intention on paying. They say I am avoiding my responsibilities and have no intention on paying. I feel they need to be reported and wonder how I go about doing this

I have received the job which I have been trying for. I start January 8th. I was thinking of giving my notice this friday, which would be my 5 weeks notice. Is that too much notice or would it be looked at as fine.

I don't know if I should wait and give my notice closer to time or if I should just let them know now. A lady in my office won't be back for a while due to family problems, so I figured giving my notice this much time in advance would appropriate. I am going to prepare my letter of resignation, but I am just not sure if it is too early to let them know.
