i work mon-fri 8-4:30 $12.50 hr. I am the backup to several departments in my company. so when someone takes a day off, or has something going on i fill in for them. tuesdays and wednesdays i am always doing something for at least 4 hours in another department. Now i have great benefits, and my managers do not hassle me about my work, i do what i'm told and i usually ask for more things when i'm bored. but the thing is that they give me WAY TOO much stuff when i ask for it, and they give me stuff that will be a reoccuring task daily, and on the days that i have to fill in for people i cannot accomplish everything.
BUT then there are days like today, where i have sat on yahoo answers and i've done nothing all day long. i've asked to switch departments but they said that i'm to valuable as the "back up." I'm bored out of my mind at this position, and they will not let me move within the company. should i leave, or stay and hope that it gets better? i've been here for 11 months.

I'm job hunting and there have been a few jobs I quit to take another job, but wondered what are good reasons to put on the applications? There have been a few I was let go/fired for various reasons. Do I list them at all? My last employer let me go for not listing every job I've had. So, this time I'm putting them all down, and want to be upfront and honest with future employers. Is that the best thing to do?

i dont mind the job-related technical questions, but usually human resources ask a question like: "what would you say was your weakest point?"
what answer can i give to this question, whilst still portraying myself in a good light? i don't really want to use "well, i'm a bit of a perfectionist ......"

I had an interview this morning. At the end the guy said he would give me an offer by the end of the week. In this case should I still send a thank you letter? If so over e-mail or mail seeing as how mail may be slower than an offer?

Its getting ridiculous, even leaflet distributors and cleaners are asked for experience! I mean everyone has to start somewhere right? It just seems like studying for a degree is a complete waste of time cos all they want is industry experience. Am I the only one with this problem?

I know that is the best way for an American to get a job "over there." Marriage or French ancestors are not in my past or future. I also know it's harder than heck to find a job in Europe as a non-EU citizen. I speak very good French (got my MA), have studied and taught in France on a short-term contract.

Problem is I have been banging my head against the wall trying to figure out how the heck to get a job over there. Doesn't need to be specifically France--Belgium, Ireland, UK, Luxembourg, Spain...about anywhere in Western Europe'll do!

Can anyone think of any good employment opportunity to get a Europhile to Europe? I have taught high school, college, and have non-profit (grant-writing) expereince. How can I transfer these skills to the business world and what are good US companies I could check into?
