Is it nearly impossible to start a service based business in California?

I have heard that painting, cleaning, lawn care, and all of that is so dominated by Mexicans that it is impossible for an American to compete in LA and SF.

But the boss from the other pizza shop say i"ll give you $13 an hour. All this happen on the same day.. and of course i want the $13 one. so i called the shop and said "sorry i cant do the job" (that gana pay me $11 an hour). And the lady were said "why didnt you let us know 3 or 4 days earlier, we've taken order now no one is going to deliver them"!!! and hang up on me. ( the tone was not nice at all).

I just got an interview at a bank, it's next week and I'm a little bit nervous. Can you give me some tips on how to act so I get the job and also what to wear? I'm 19 years old so if someone older with experience went in they would probably get it. How would I beat them? Please give me some tips...

We paid cash over $10,000 for a used truck at a dealership and weren't aware they had to report it to the IRS. Now we are terrified what the IRS will do to us. It was honest money from the sale of another vehicle and money we had saved personally. Does anyone know what happens after it is reported? Thanks!

I've been working at Hollister for about 2 months now, and I initially really wanted to work at Abercrombie&Fitch, but I wasn't 18 yet. Now that I'm 18, I want to work at Abercrombie&Fitch, too, since I don't get enough hours at Hollister anyways. But since they're owned by the same company, is it possible to work both jobs since they may already see me in the database as working for Hollister already? Will they definitely know I already work there and automatically not hire me?

Making money is great, don't get me wrong, but if I could find my own niche where I would be helping people, too, that would be even better. Does anyone have a suggestion?

I'm studying French language in university in France and will complete my study in some years. I will study something else such as economic or philosophy etc. I'm native Japanese speaker and speak French and English. I like making plans in general and easily get bored. I can't really do "same thing everyday" jobs.

Is there any good jobs I should try or advice?

I'm actually just playing a role playing game, but I am told this is probably similar to real life. We play as covert opps, and this mission seems very un-realistic. I think I was told that the characters in Splinter Cell have these on them, so what do they mean?

The cashier of a Indian gorcey store in Waltham gave me a Two Dollars Bill.

I've been moved from Canada for 8 years now and this is the first time I see a Two Dollars Bill.

Is it counterfeit money?

In a question last night, http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AqLU5sEDGZDzMgs_rjyAoYvty6IX?qid=20070629234830AAyLQo0 (please also answer that one too if you can) I mentioned that I am a 22 year old college student and would like to get into real estate and renting at some point in the near future. One of the answers got me thinking. I may have a general idea of what it would be like, but there's probally alot of aspects that I'm not aware of.

So my question is simply this; what are the Pros and Cons of becoming a landlord?
