Currently, I'm considering studying theology as a major or a minor, and I was curious to see what kind of jobs I could get if I got a degree in theology. If possible, please list the job, what it requires (or what the main idea is) and an estimated salary.
Thanks!

The property's in CT. I'm renting one half of a duplex, she lives in the other half and owns the property. She is elderly. I work a lot and am often not there. She has several times told me she went into my apt for some bogus emergency (we had a storm and she wanted to make sure "my side" didn't lose power, she had to close my windows because she heard it might rain, etc) and "happened" to see something she didn't like (I left a light on, I left wet clothes on a chair etc). I very strongly suspect she does it a lot more than she's telling me, and only mentions it when she sees something she doesn't like. I tried to tell her I would let her in anytime she wanted if she would give me notice but she didn't like idea at all. The problem is the location is perfect and it took me a long time to find a decent rental in this rural area. So I guess my question is, is there a way for me to prove she's been doing this and if so what can I do about it. Thank you.

Recently I had my boss do our yearly evaluation, I was rated as average and did not get excellent marks on any of my job aspects.

I agree with her on the aspects of my performance that need to improve, what I find negative is that she did not mention a single positive attribute when before I have gotten excellent reviews from my peers and other executives.

She mentiones that I need to become an expert on my area of responsability, before I had a much larger area of accountability (where I achived a 20% growth yearly) and I was a more of a generalist, wich did not enable me to concentrate in one area.

She replaced me in my position, because the area was enlarged

She seemed very future oriented on what I can achieve, but the thing that puzzles me is that she did not mention anything positive.

How should I take it? Should I try to improve and be positive, or have reality check and move to another company.

Your advise and experience will be appreciated

THis sounds like a 'duh' question but really, there are archeologists and stuff and are they allowed to dig under your land?

I'm planning to buy 6 or so sweaters from Japan to sell on eBay and I was wondering how the tax/law works on them. Each cost $2,000, so they are NOT going to overlooked if opened by the customs

Will I have to be an "importer" in order to do so, or do I not need such status?

If I happen to get audited by IRS, I don't want to into trouble by not following the right steps to buy goods from overseas, so please let me know in detail.

Thank you.

I was hired under a certain set of circumstances; i.e., I negotiated and accepted the position based on those. After six months, none of the agreed upon benefits, conditions, etc have been met by my employer. It's time to part ways. I've brought this up several times--documented in email form--and if they aren't going to live up to their half of the bargain, do I have to give the customary notice?

Hello,
I am doing my own taxes and I need help on something. On the W-2 to send to the state and federal places only 15,16,17 (boxes) are filled in and on my copy 15,16,17 are blank and 18,19,20 are filled in. When I am doing my taxes on line should I go ahead and fill in 15-20 just to be safe or is 18,19,20 not required?
I am so lost!
TYIA

I just got my checking and savings account opened in November, but I'm moving out of town this weekend. I don't want to close my accounts b/c I still will go to college here in this town and i'll be using my debit card alot here for gas and also the bank charges an early closing fee on accounts. Should I transfer to a more local bank or keep this one? Also, is it necessary for me to reorder new checks? I still have almost 2 boxes of checks left b/c i never use my checks. Will the bank make me reorder new ones? plus, do i just go into the bank and tell them i'm moving and tell them my new address? Thanks for any help.
