today. I'm wearing basic black, so that one won't raise a red flag at my job too much. But I have to do my makeup this morning. Will it cause too much suspicion if my face and hair are all "done up" today when I'm usually more casual? Does it matter?

I started a new job at a convenience store and I thought I would be a cashier or something. Instead, they put me in the food section making customer food. I hate it. I really, really hate it. I hate smelling food all day and then going home smelling like food. The other people working there talk about each other behind their backs. Something from the night before got blamed on a new girl in training. I just really hate it. I don't think it's for me.

Ya, I need a job but shouldn't I be happy with what i'm doing and where i'm doing it?

I'm afraid to call the manager and tell them I quit. I feel guilty because they paid for a drug test and background check and orientation and training. I've been there 4 days and I just don't see it getting better.

I'm just nervous to call in. I don't know what to tell the manager. Help?

I cant find a shirt that fits my shoulders and hips. Am I shapped funny or something? Is it better to have it fit snuggly at the bottom and well at the top? Or to have it fit nicely at the bottom and very baggy at the top. Please give me advice!

I have poor credit and about 12,000 of random debt I need to consolidate or lower interest rates. Credit Unions won't give me a loan to consolidate and credit cards won't let me open accounts to transfer balances. Any ideas?

okay-here is the scoop. I work in the real estate/mortgage industry. I have a very steady work history, 6 years at one company and three at another. I worked for three months at a new postion and was being treated very poorly in terms of compensation and my boss's attitude towards me. We parted on kind of ugly terms and I really don't want anyone contacting him. Here is my problem- I am relocating from New York City to Arizona. Do I put this on my resume? I've since taken a new position with a good company and a good boss. Help! Thanks in advance!
