I am about to turn 18. I have blue cross blue shield though my parents. Someone told me I had to register in school to keep my insurance. But someone else told me I am covered until I am 21 as long as I am not married and am my parents dependant. Which one is true? Need to know. I am turning 18 in a week and its to late to register until Winter. I have health problems. Not good!

Jesus saves! YAY!

I have a full time job at a daycare and I really love my job. I do need to make more money though cuz as soon as I get my raise I will still only be making about $1040 a month. Part of the reason I have this job is because I don't have to work weekends so I don't want anything I have to do on the weekends. I was thinking of asking some of the parents if they need a babysitter 1 or 2 nights a week. I was also thinking of donating once or twice a week because thats $30 a time right there. So basically I need to know any side jobs I can do that aren't a commitment and that don't involve me working weekends. Even if it's only like $10 here and there. Any advice?

We are unsure to pay more off the mortage in the next two years or extend for more room, if we pay more off the house mortage. then the mortage will go down and the equity of the home would go up, but if we extend we would have a lot more room because our house is very small! Then if we wanted to we could have a baby because the mortage repayments would go down. What should we do, as we are unsure?

I have an interview tomorrow with Chase as a personal banker. I was referred by a friend and I did well on the assessment test. My problem...

The resume that I gave to my friend to give to recruiter has a mistake on it. I also filled an application with that resume. I need to correct dates from my past employment. Should i correct it? Or just leave it alone?

Also I want to eliminate one of my current jobs (its not relevant and its only weekends sometimes. And i want to add a job that is more significant that i worked 4 years ago. What Do I do?
Ill leave the Job change alone if anything but what about the dates??

I am a college graduate with no relevant work experience and I think they might be more concerned about me selling myself as a banker.

Thank you

My resume is maybe 75% done, but I was wondering something.... would it be acceptable to mention something that I wouldn't want to do... such as cold calling (a.k.a. telemarketing) on a cover letter? I currently do inside sales. All of my customers are either pre-existing or they find us through the net, phone book etc. Many years ago I tried telemarketing while in high school and hated it. I just don't want to waste time taking off from my current job to have an interview where off the bat I'm not interested. Also, how could I word that?

thanks!

I haven't been doing work that requires dressy heeled shoes in a few years. I've outgrown my professional shoes. Can I wear loafers or short heeled boots with slacks to my interview for a receptionist position tomorrow? Or should I just spend some of my rent $$ to buy a pair or heels pumps?

I currently have a rental property that I have to pay $ 200 out of pocket to make payments. My taxes went up and now I have to pay 238.00 more or give 1500 in a lump sum and only pay 110.00 more. Is it worth paying the 1500 in a lump sum????

I'm more curious than anything if long hair is something that could possibly make you look less desirable or taken less seriously by a potential employer. My hair is a little bit past my back and grows extremely fast so it's easy for it to get and stay long and I don't do much except for wash/condition/brush it to keep it in good condition.

For jobs/interviews I'll usually do a low ponytail or a bun or some type of up do so my hair doesn't get messed up in the possible wind, etc. Do Possible employers look at someone with longer/long hair as less serious or knowledgeable in their field (IE younger and less experienced) and go for someone with shorter hair and a more career look? Or does it matter in the end as long as you put your hair up, present yourself well-groomed if both candidates are otherwise equal?

I do alot of online shopping (mostly from Amazon) so I get quite a few deliveries a week, mostly from UPS. I am familiar with the online tracking option that UPS uses and I've found it to be accurate (as far as delivery estimation and places my orders have been prior to delivery).

But recently I've ordered some merchandise off eBay and the seller uses FedEx to ship orders. I was given a tracking number and the FedEx website to check in on my order.

I noticed that once the package gets to a certain point it stops giving any new information on the status of the package.

For example the website will read basically:

JULY 15th
6:46pm - July 14th - Left Origin
5:06pm - package data transmitted to FedEx
4:35pm - Arrived At FedEx Location
2:05pm - Picked Up

JULY 22nd
12:05pm - Package Delivered

There is quite a jump there. A week to be exact where the package doesn't even seem to be moving then BAM, it's on your doorstep.

Why is it set up like this?
