Careers & Employment - September 2006

I hate my job - well I dont hate the job,I hate this boss with a passion.I have been applying for jobs left right and centre but as I have no degree am finding it hard even to get to interview stage. I have had 2 interviews but didnt get the jobs and am starting to feel like the biggest failure ever. I check job website and the paper ever day and apply for everything even slightly relevent to my skills. I am reallly down about all this - should i quit my current job and temp or waitress until i find something permanent?

should I go dressed up formally? Or is it okay to wear jeans and a sweatshirt? Note this is just to go pick up a form. What about when I go back to give them the filled-out form and resume... what should I wear?
I know, obviously, that for the interview (IF I get called ;) ) I have to wear office clothes...

hey, just wondering how many of you out there actually like your job and if you do how is it rewarding for you?...If you hate your job, why and why don't you quit?

For me personally i hate my job with a passion, but i have to do it right now because i have tons of bills and never get time off to find another one :( I know life is too short but it seems impossible right now to find another one, so i just dread every ****** day i wake up

the good news is I recently got hired for a job and will start work on Wednesday. The bad news is they want me to show my Driver's License and Social Security card when I come in on Wednesday. I have my license and plenty of documents with my Social Security number on it, but not a card. Do you think they'd give me a hard time or as long as I have something with my SS # on it it should be ok?

Is 'sensual massage' wrong to do?
I'm having a bit of a moral dilemma...I'm a student, and I'm tired of working for student slave rates...so i've started doing 'sensual massage' which is basically a 'proper massage', done naked, but with a hand job (w*nk, jack-off) in the end...for £50/hr...no sex invovled...that's good work right...

So why do I feel so bad about it! Obviously my family doesn't know because they wouldn't approve...but i'm doing it to support myself through college...

It's better than dancing...and it's not as bad as prostitution...right?

The NHS is slowly being eroded around our ears, and cutbacks mean redundancies, i'd like to be able to consider some other options to pay the mortgage. My past jobs have been more creative and i have a diploma in design ceramics.

Can someone in the know please give me some idea of what a good broker can expect to earn in his or her first year?

Also, what sort of money do really good, self-employed brokers earn?

Finally, with the internet and other media full of comparisons of mortgages, is there a rosy future for mortgage brokers?

Cheers!

I'm turning seventeen next week and I'm looking for work. I really don't want to work at a fast food place like everyone else. I love Target; does anyone know if you have to be eighteen to work there? Are there any suggestions for good stores (national or local, I live in Western New York) that hire seventeen year olds?
