I know it helps a lot if you have a contact within the departments you're interested in, but what if you don't?

I am an assistant to a very busy business owner. I do anything that I'm asked to do. But a lot of times, my boss get too caught up in her own work to stop and assign anything to me. I feel like I'm being lazy and she's doing all the work. I don't try to do this. When I go to her office to get some work to do, she tells me to come back when she's not so busy. I often times sit with nothing to do, feeling like I could be punished at any time for not doing work. What should I do?

I have always wanted to write, and I'm wondering what viable area I should start pursuing, so that eventually I can earn a living doing it?

I'm 44, and SO frustrated that I hate every job I get. I don't like clerical, though that's what I'm trained to do. I'm discouraged by the job boards and help wanteds. I make $12/hr part time, but the only jobs I find for a non-college grad pay far less than that. Any ideas? I have two kids, get no child support after a 17-year marriage ended. I want to get a house, and move forward, but can't get past the job prospects. Owned a business for 17 yrs, have strong clerical skills. I don't know. I just feel very alone, and wish I could talk to someone who could guide me. Thanks for listening. Not trying to whine. Just letting off some steam.

I didn't mention anything about my termination on the application, but when I took the assessment online I was asked whether I was fired because of performance and the # of times. I'm starting to wonder if this might be one of the reasons I did not get interviewed, at least, from the company.

I'm feeling like I made a mistake for being honest after receiving an email from the company, thanking me for applying and that their hiring process is highly competitive...etc...I was not interviewed at all or given a chance to be interviewed.

I have made a complaint to Human Resources about my manager who has been making my life 'hell' for two years! It has been 6 months since I made the complaint and nothing really has come of it! Last week my manager changed my day off without consulting me and I objected to this. She has now reported me for 'inappropriate behaviour' and now face disciplinary action. Surely I have a right to stand up for myself without the threat of facing the sack. I wasn't rude and wasn't threatening at all! It took only 3days for me to face disciplinary action but my complaint about her has taken 6 months!!! How come and what can I do??

I want to go to school to become an x-ray tech, and then eventually become a Ultrasonographer. My friend (who is a dental hygenist in the army ) had a week of x-ray classes and she said it was REALLLLLLLLLY difficult. I know its not an easy job, and its an important to know what you are doing, but I didnt think it would be like brain surgery. I am good at Math, but then again I really only took Algebra, but I actually enjoyed it...

I am taking my first Anatomy class in January, hopefully I will understand it....

I quite my horrible job a few weeks back and have found that after a year with my last nasty employer I can apply for much better jobs then before. However, the application processes are so long and arduous that I think it will be a while before I start a proper job. I have been looking for temp jobs to keep me going but after spending a few weeks being treated like dirt by temp agencies for the sake of minimum wage temp jobs my confidence is starting to take a battering and I'm beginning to think I should just hold out for a permanent job and have faith something will appear befoe my money runs out? Advice????

Also, if you know of any good sites that can help with creating the resume that would help alot! The only previous employment is working at McDonalds, restaurant busboy and pizza delivery. How would I interpret that into sounding good? Im making this resume for my son, and I guess Im pretty clueless too! Thanks to all for your help.
