Ticks me off.

He'll say blah blah blah.

I'm silent, thinking.

Then he asks me why I don't agree.

Pisses me off.

ask to talk to the manager, tell them my qualifications and then tell them I'm looking for a job? What do you think my chances would be of them actually considering me for something and not thinking I'm just someone who "has a lot of nerve" or knows nothing about proper resume/application procedure? (I'm not talking some retail position or anything, I'm talking more higher up positions.)


*considering this because the "formal" and "traditional" application method hasn't done much in regards to getting me a decent job

I am currently working as a Senior Systems Programmer/Analyst for a major fortune 200 financial services institution in the U.S. My father-in law works in Dubai so my wife, my 8 month old son and I are going over for Christmas to visit him. He is trying to get me set up with some interviews during our 2 week stay. I’m very interest in Dubai but would first like to know what kind of salaries are offered to IT Professionals/Architects on both the high end and the low end. I also would like to know what kind of IT industry exists in Dubai. I just want to make sure this is something that I would seriously consider if the offer is right. Anyhow, I'm 26 years old, I graduated from a University in the U.S. and am an experienced J2EE develeoper with strong background emphasis on Systems integration. Any info or feedback would be very appreciated. Thanks ahead of time…. .

I was asked by a potential employer to send my references via email. Do I write a letter? Or do I just shoot a "Here are my references, thank you for the call"? I have never been asked to email references, I've always just attached them to my resume and given them at the interview. I am new to the email reference ettiquete.

Does the FLSA protect salaried exempt employees from being overworked at all? I was just curious because I just finished a required 17 hour work day after a more than full work week.....plus a few of my coworkers are on about 70 for the week. Just wondering if the FLSA protects us exempt workers at all.

Thanks!

The question as old as time. I was offered a position in NYC that starts on Monday. I am currently in NC at the moment. If I take the job I will not be giving my current employer any notice. The best I could do is slip a letter of resignation under his office door. He left too early today before I decided to accept the new position. What do you think I should do? I already have the job and a place to stay up there so thats not a factor. Its just a matter of accepting it and giving my boss a zero day notice that I'm leaving is what I'm pondering over.

Because I have always sold I don't have the foggiest idea of what else I can do for a living. By the way I am a college grad. Any suggestions?
