Why are so many people so negative towards the new employee? If they make a mistake, instead of saying something positive like "Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it.", they say something like "What are you? Retarded?". If they're not doing something fast enough, instead of saying "We try to get things done in a quick pace", they say "You're a slow worker.". Why is this? Can't they understand that "new" means exactly that: NEW. The new person has to "get their hands dirty" before they can fluently move from one thing to the next. They don't know where everything is. They haven't been trained on everything yet. I wish these people would realize that having a bad attitude towards the new person is actually WORSE in the long run. I also believe that a lot of people nowadays are not qualified to train other people. They always show them the most basic way of doing something, not the optimum way that the company looks for. It seems a lot of details are skipped in the training process. Why?

I have been doing the job for 18 months, but find it hard to sell myself, as I just organise naturally. The team was global, about 30 people. IT application, numrerous releases from design through release. I just seem to have complete writers block

Even if you only have one liner it would help

Thanks

I have to start with telling you that I am Bipolar. In the yrs of '05 & '06 I was in a manic state twice & bounced many checks, spent my $1000 VISA limit & my $500 SEARS limit. Then I didn't pay on these, so with collection agencies after me, late fees & I took 2 payday loans out on top of it all ($1500 in total), I am almost $5000 in debt.

I am no longer manic. I went to my bank & another one for a $5000 loan so I can pay everyone off & of course they denied me due to my credit report

I am now on disability due to the Bipolar & unemployed. I have nothing! But I have to start paying my debts before I end up being sued or being called into court.

Can anyone give me advice on how I can obtain a single loan of $5000 (not a cash advance or anything like that, they suck all your money and blood)? I worked out a monthly budget & a friend will help me stay with it. But where do I go to start this?

HELP PLEASE! Thank you!

in some places real estate is going down in its down turn. will real estate always go down and stay flat?

doesnt real estate double every 10 years? so if ther average house is 500,000. in 10 years it will be almost a million? so in 5 years it will be 700,000? someone told me real estate ALWAYS has cyles, if it is going down now, it WILL go back up later. they said a real esate cyle is usualy 7 years. from top to bottom back to top, or bottom to top back to bottom. so in 5 years or more, real estate will be going up real high?

and someone said everytimg theres a boom, the next boom will always be higher than the last? so the last boom was in the early 2000's. so by the 2010 or later it will go up higher than the peak in the early 2000's?

if i buy 5 houses below value right now since prices are going down, andi n a buyers market for 500,000. can i look foward to selling them for 700,000 in 5 years from now when its a sellers market?

She thought she was charging to hers. She didnt get a statement for the charge (obviously) & neither did I. This credit card has not had activity in years (I thought it was closed) and she signed HER name not mine which would be a HUGE red-flag that I didnt make the charge. I heard nothing that any charges were made (no statements, no calls) NOTHING until I got a call from someone at some collections acgency telling me that the account was sold to collections for being 90 days past due and that call demanding that I pay the back payment plus collections fee & that I have a collection on my credit now. I have pristine credit & enough $$ to pay. Right now I have alot of my credit on 0% interest. This snafoo could cost me my good name & my ability to keep the 0% rates to the tune of thousands in interest over $40 that I could pay easily. I dont want to declare this a fradulent charge because I dont want my mom to have charges pressed - it was an honest mistake on her part! What do I do?

I want to be a fireman, but i need a job that has enough pay and benefit to protect a family. Is it a good enough job to support a family by itself? Does it come with health benefits and like insurance and pension and all that stuff that will cover me and my family? If it varies by city, i live in Los Angeles or more specificly, San Gabriel Valley. I want to make a difference in people's lives, but my family comes first, so does it pay enough to support a family? And what kinds of benefits does it give me? In general, will it give me enough to live a comfortable life, including retirement?

to me then she is entitled to the commission if I put in an offer.

Now I know that I will not sign anything unless I'm ready to put an offer.

My sister viewed the house with the host agent on a friday. And I went with my agent or our agent to the open house on saturday. Now, I planned to view the property with my sister on friday, but traffic delayed me.

The host agent said hello but did not asks us to sign in or anything. Later that day, I received a call from the host agent to see if I was going to come to the open house and told him that I came with an agent. He then proceeded to tell me that this will pose a problem and I told him that I did not sign anything and there should not be a problem. He quickly told me to only deal with him. I relayed that with the agent I've been working with a she quickly informed that I signed the disclosure agreement and that she was entitled to some of the commission. TBC...
