Careers & Employment - July 2006

Job applications say have you been "convicted" and surely I haven't. I am facing merely charges for something that should not have even gotten so big. But anyway, I am having trouble finding employment because apparently it says PENDING FELONIES on my background checks, what should I do to find work? My kids are depending on me?

What is the worst excuse for not coming in or being late that you've ever heard?

The worst I've heard came from an employee who said that she was hungover and had done, "dude, like, 18 shots" last night.

Some people with the misguided sense of self importance, think the company cannot run without them and come to work to spread their sickness. Then complain when the people they make sick, are away. Perhaps throwing some hard object at them will wake them up.

Today is my first day of work in a new job that I was rushed to find because my boyfriend just graduated and got a job in a city about 1hour and 1/2 from where we lived. The job I accepted is in a neighborhood I am a little sceptical about, especialy because I was told not to park behind it. I don't know what to look for or how to tell if I should be worried or not.

A friend of mine calls me yesterday and tells me she applied for this great job. She said when she initially talked to the manager she had informed her that all she needed was the the basic experience to get the job. Well yesterday she met with the manager for the second time. While the interveiw went excellent and she said shortly after the interview she spent an additional 30 minutes (by manager request) just talking to her. The manager tells her that she has well above everything that is required for the job, all creditials ,background checks and physical endurance test came out excellent and in order. However she said when she got home the lady (manager) called her and told her that she was overqualified for the position. I asked her was it anything else she may have overlooked or said something she shouldn't have after the interview was over. She told me that after the interview the manager just spent the 30 minutes talking about her life and what she does in her spare time

I have worked in youth work, as an employment consultant, and as a long term carer for my own child. But over the last year I have slid deeper into a depression and I know this is because I do not have a job. I am ready to move on to a new location and need to write a new resume that reflects the person I really am when not depressed but due to the depression I find it very hard to think of positive words and phrases.

This is really depressing me.I also have my real estate license but cannot go into it full time.I also have to pay for my annual dues on that each month and mls fee per month.I wanted to maybe work in a real estate office on Saturdays but want to get paid by the hour and if anyone comes in I would be able to leave to show property.Would agency hire me for this ?My company now does not advertise being open on weekends.

Okay ladies and gents answer me this... How would you react if you recently started a new job and aside from other questionable behavior your boss/supervisor did this to you? Say for instance your boss gave you a set of keys to the company car and you had the keys for some while but often other employees come to you to use the car so it isnt uncommon for you to have the keys at one part of the day but hand them over to someone else...And keep in mind that it isnt your responsibility to keep the keys your just doing everyone a favor by holding on to them...and evern when you hand the keys back to the sup. when your done he/she insists that you keep them. So..Later in the day your boss is looking for the keys and becoming angry so you say. Hey! I'm not sure I might still have them upstairs. So the both of you are walking upstairs and he beats you to the office,as you're walking in behind him/her you see them violently shaking your jacket and searching for the keys. How would you react?
