I waited tables for a year and a half at a Cracker Barrel. Then I became a Nurse Aide and have worked in a nursing home for the past 9-10 months. I don't like it. The work is just nasty. The poltics of hospitals and nursing homes are crazy. There really isn't good money in health care either, unless you are a nurse or doctor etc.. I'm having trouble paying the bills. I never had that problem while I waited tables. I got my first waitress job from a friend. So I'm not really sure what the next step is now that I want to wait tables again. How do I make myself stand-out (in a good way) as an applicant?

Also, do cocktail servers or bartenders make good money? Does anyone have any general advice on those jobs?

I am 19 and am working a dead end job. I am also going to school full-time. I have only been at my job for three months, but I am SO tired of it! Since starting school about a month ago I have gotten so stressed out! It's Sunday night, and I can't sleep because I'm so worried about work tomorrow. Also, while I am doing alright in school I am not doing as well as I could be doing. I can afford to quit, and honestly I want to but there are a few things standing in my way.

1) I've only been there 3 months.
2) I just became eligible for health insurance. I don't want to sign up for it and then quit, and I also don't want to not have it.
3) I am worried that the social interaction that I get at school will not be enough to make up for the lack of interaction that I am currently getting from work.

If you have any suggestions please let me know! Thank you so much!

What to say to the insurance company? Will companies even insure it? We'd be getting a loan for $40,000 is that all the insurance that would be needed on the house? Oh, I have so many questions... See we want to buy an abandoned house & fix it up but I know the mortgage company is going to most likely make us carry home owners insurance. But I'm not sure how much & what to insure because the house is just the shell & bare studs at this point.

I have an overseas pharmacy degree and just finished MBA in Australia. I am looking to getting a 2 months customer service experience to have that feel of direct contact with a customer to provide the service.

I do some food deliveries but there is no much talking, just How are you and the price is:"

I was wondering about a shop in a mall. I applied already but was refused, I think mainly it is too good to have an MBA for shop assistant, isn't it.

Do you have any idea how to get the X-mas rush experience without scaring the employer away? I was honest that I wanted only 2 months, should I lie to want more?

I plan to get a real job in Feb/March 2008.

Hi,
So I am started a dog apparel line. I have been sewing my friends who have little dogs clothing for a long time and they really think that this is something I should start a business for. Not just advice from them but from others as well. I had an offer to design for a dog merchandise company but would rather do it on my own. I know some might think it's silly but my friends' dogs are their children to them! So, I really enjoy making them stuff. I was wondering on some idea on how to start. I have started amongst my friends but they are more gifts then business...should I start my own website?? Ebay store?? Please expand on some ideas...

THANKS ALL!!
