I think having a degree may have worsened my chances of full time employment, and i dont know what to do about it, should i take my degree off my CV. Start fresh? i have been unemployed 6 months out of this year. Im not picky either, i love the idea of being a checkout assistant, but i had no reply from any of the supermarkets applied for. My CV has been described as very impressive by interviewers in the past. but i have only been invited to two interviews all year.
Am i missing something? are there no real training opportunities left? i am willing and able to learn new things, but the opportunities are not available to even try. any advice would be much appreciated.

To whom it may concern:

I read your job posting for a Customer service representative with interest.

I am currently a customer service manager at *******.com a small e-commerce company. I have been with company for 18 months and have managed to get two promotions. In addition to the management of the customer service department I have also taken the position of the compliance department manager as well.

While working at *******.com I have expanded my experience in customer service. Dealing with customers and company suppliers has given me skills in communication using my manners to handle business with kindness and patience. I have been answering emails as well as phones. I am currently responsible for customer satisfaction, speedy delivers and promotions.

I also have extensive experience in MS Word, Excel, Outlook and Internet Explorer. Which, I believe, would be an ideal match for this position.

I recently began working for Walmart as an overnight stocker. A co-worker told me that you get paid a dollar more for working on Sunday. I was wondering if anyone could verify this? Also, as overnight I am off on "Sunday". However, I worl Saturday night 10pm to 7am. When the clock rollovers at midnight does that qualify as working on Sunday? If the above is true would I be payed that extra dollar?

Why do I bother emailing my CV to recruitment agencies with covering letters, to apply for jobs, only to be ignored and never even recieve an acknowledgement?

I have to wonder why I'm wasting my time here ..... I'm a good candidate, I have experience in the field that I'm applying for, I have a well written CV and covering letter.

So what's missing?

Maybe I should just become dole scrounger as they seem to have more luck than me right now!

My husband and I have custody of our two grandchildren, and have had them since February, and we are going to file them on our income tax. The trouble is that their parents let the other grandparents file them last year and feel that they are going to try to do it again this year. What is the earliest date that we can file our taxes so that no one else can claim them?

Our lease is up the end of February so we aren't looking to move to another place until then. That's about 10 weeks away. I don't want to go looking for a place and find somewhere that we like but the owners end up wanting to rent it sooner than the end of February. Should we wait or go ahead and start looking? I see in the paper a place that sounds perfect for what we need.

My job offers matching to 4% but I have 10% going into it.
Should I just keep the matching 4% going into my 401k and then put the rest (6%) into an IRA?

I know We get a tax break if we put money into a IRA but not a R-IRA because there will be not tax on the Roth on the back end but
Do we get a tax break on the money we put into our 401k?

Upon his passing, when the bank takes the payments for the equity loan from his estate, does that include life insurance policy? There really isn't anything in the estate, except the house. I am also trustree of Life Estate.
