My future boss showed my resume to my future subordinates. Is this reason enough to turn down the job?

On every TV show/movie that involved Lawyers, you see them in the courtroom arguing a case. Personally, I want to be a lawyer that spends more time at the office than public speaking/aruging at the courts. What type of lawyer spends the most time at the office instead of the courts?? Corporate Lawyers?? Intellectual Property Lawyers?? Some people want to argue their case in front of a jury or a judge, I do not. I would like to give people legal counsel but not have to really defend anyone by arguing their case.

Nothing illegal or harrassment...just a boss that micromanages, is a control nut, and drives me crazy. I can post into another job that I would be bored to death, but the boss and I get along well. Both pay equally well, same shift, and same location. What to choose -- job or boss?

I graduated college with a degree in Studio Arts 3 years ago looking to find a career in Graphic Design. It's a really, really difficult career to maintain, and I'm disappointed at the fact that veteran designers tell me to shove off because they can't afford to teach the competition.

Then good luck crossed my path when I was offered to work at a defense contractor with other designers, some of which having 30 years experience. It was considered "grunt" work, but I loved every minute of it. I worked until the contract was over (May '06) and now I'm broke again.

Now today I got a phone call from another defense contractor offering me a position in Iraq for 6 months. I'm scared of going, but the reality of living in debt is a fate worse than dying. If something does happen to me at least I'd have some of my debt paid off, so it wouldn't be a burden on my parents. But if I stay here, I'm never going to get the career I trained and studied for. What should I do?

Hiya, I want to get my nose pierced but am concerned as to how the nose piercing will affect my job prospects (im currently a 2nd year uni student).

I want to know whether any professionals be you lawyers,teachers, doctor's have nose piercings or is this generally not done.? If you or a professional you know has got one, has it affected your job, do you regret doing it??

In case it matters, I am not of asian descent. I just really really admire nose piercings.

I have been working as a temporary at a company for six months I've put up with gossip and politics for some time I know its at every job. The issue is the ladies I work with have seniority and are friends as well so you never know when to trust someone because they are constantly tryin to set people up by asking questions also I asked if there was a chance to become pemanant and the answer was no because buisness is slow I don't beleive that one bit. anyway I have seen people get fired because one of the ladies made a complaint its insane, should I quit or wait it out which is a chance I wont win even if I tough it out?
