i applied jobs at like london drugs, and home depot, places like that because they had openings
the only way to apply is through internet
i've applied for the openings and they didn't contact me, but it has been a few months and they still have these openings (and they update their openings every month)
and i've applied like twice already..
i believe i'm well qualified for those jobs and why is it they can't find employees but they won't even contact me for an interview?

My boss is a walking *****. I work in a dental office.. it's just her (the dentist) and me (the receptionist/insurance biller).

She's unreasonable and extremely difficult to work for.. so after a year, I've decided to quit.

I'm giving her my 2 weeks notice tomorrow. It will be an oral notice as she probably won't read anything I had to her, she never does.

She told me on Friday that she really didn't need me anymore.. she could just have all her calls into the office go straight to voicemail and then call people back late at night when she's finished working.

Blah blah blah, point is.. I don't want to be tacky about it.. At the same time, I know she's going to ask exactly why I'm leaving and those type of questions.

How can I go about this so that it's POSSIBLE that she at least gives me an "okay" reference?

Okay, my hubby currently has a job, but he has been wanting this other job for like a year. So I had this friend who's hubby works there, so I asked her to help him get a job. So her hubby kinda pulled some strings and my hubby got an interview and got a job offer. now he is saying maybe he doesn't want the job. So, should I tell him to take it or else? It pays better and has better benefits, but suckier hours.

Ok first off I work in an office but its VERY casual - they had a keg when one executive retired, they had a huge bbq with cases and cases of beer, they go out to bars all the time, have picnics, office parties, etc. constantly.

I've been there a little over a month and everyone in my department is only a few years older than me and we are all just barely out of college or still in college.

On Friday I heard everyone talking about some "bonfire" my supervisor I guess you could call him although he's really just like the head of our small team (5 ppl). I heard every single person in the office talking about it and they had all gotten an email invite. The guy who organized it was even talking about it right in front of me (his cubicle is across from mine) and didn't ever invite me.

I don't know if this was a friend event or an office event but still, I had thought that we were at least acquantinces and other people were getting invited who I have never seen speak with him.

I've earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Management w/ a minor in Advertising. I am also a passionate artist with limited to no professional experience, only freelance projects: Makeup, Set Design, Wardrobe Styling, Interior Design, Fashion Design. I am eager to start a new career now but it seems that I am caught between "no extensive professional experience" & "no specialized formal education" & it has become difficult to find real work. I need guidance as to how I can begin a creative career without returning to school or doing an internship. I feel like I am stuck in the "credit" fog: you can't get credit without credit.

I'd like some advice regarding how to describe the work/skills involved with being an "extra" in a movie...

(Don't worry, the movies were "The Breakup" & "Legally Blonde II." They weren't anything weird...)

Anyway, I'm having some difficulty figuring out what to write because I want it to sound a little better than "I stood around all day, moving on & off the set, & pretending to clap/dance/bowl/etc."

Note: This is for a legal job - so it has to sound good : )

Thanks so much!

PS I apologize for posting this question again, but I didn't realize that there was a forum for questions about employment (duh!)
