Careers & Employment - November 2006

I just started a Seasonal job at Target yesterday, as a cashier. (i'm 16.) I feel really stupid, I thought seasonal meant "part time" because during the interview they asked me whether I would like to work seasonal or permanent. (this is my first job, so I wasn't sure) I want to continue working past the holiday season, should I wait a few weeks to tell them I'm avaliable after the season, so that they will know how good of a worker I am, or is it better to bring it up as soon as possible?

Thanks!

I've read some articles on the web about how people get turned down for jobs (or lose their jobs) because of finding certain things on the myspace or other profiles of a candidate / employee. For example, finding out things that make the candidate or employee seem immature in some way.

So...my question is...

What if you have a myspace or some other social networking profile, and you keep it clean (image and text-wise)...will employers not be bothered by it? Or is it partly that having a profile on a social networking site is just generally looked down on?

First off, will I wake up in the morning wanting to go to work, because thats important. second of all, im not very good with math, so how much math will I need (also, what exactly is statistics). The third thing is that if I get a job, will I live a happy life. Meaning will I make enough money to have a nice car and house, and will i be able to go on vacations at least once a year.

Do you enjoy working during the holidays? I don't work during the holidays anymore because I work in the office now. Do you think it's wrong for some people to work during the holidays?

If my employer was using software to spy on my computer doings, how could I tell? I am not doing anything other than occasionally looking at my personal email, but I justify that by figuring that I'm not taking 10-minute breaks every hour to go out and burn a cancer stick by the dumpster like many of my workmates....

...that lists a ton of responsibilities and expects one to have a degree, all for a starting salary of $10/hr. I know today is not April 1st(April Fools Day). This is NYC, isn't it, home of high rents and overpriced restaurants? Even if it is to gain experience, I think some employers can do better.

Okay I went to my "future job" and talked to my manager on this past Sunday, and she told me to call about my schedule "next" weekend. Does this mean call her "this" weekend coming up or "next" weekend?

I'm a chef and tomorrow I have to work 12pm til 11.30pm.
When I finish I have to get a bus home which doesn't come til midnight.
My journey home takes 45mins so I'll get home about 12.50.
Then I need to get a shower so by the time I get in bed it'll be around 1.15am.
Then my work are expecting me to be in at 7am. So if I'm lucky I'm going to get 3 and a half hours sleep, then I have to work 7am til 5pm.
Is this allowed, I'm going to be exhausted.

I have been told that an LPN is a bad way to get into nursing. I have applied for training at Job and Family Services and this is one of the things that they would allow me to get for free...if I qualify. I've been told it's not a good idea. The classes are at a vocation tech center and not a college. Does anyone have any experience or advice on this matter?
