My resume starts off with my objective. “To obtain a challenging position where I can benefit the company by professionally handling all assigned duties and grow in responsibilities as needed." After that I feel that it falls short of what I am trying to convey, I list my skills and education, and then finally my brief relevant work history... I read somewhere that an interviewer or someone who is hiring someone- only takes 15 seconds or less to review a resume and if they don’t see anything that catches their attention- it gets trashed... WHAT CAN I DO TO MAKE MY RESUME EYE-CATCHING? How do I reinstate everything in my resume for an effective and good cover letter that will get me an interview...

My wife has started a new job 2 months ago. She has told me that her lead operator/supervisor is criticizing her on most everything she does. This person is just mean toward her. My wife has gone to her Manager and complained about the abuse, but nothing has changed.

While my wife works at a different location than I do, we both work for the same company. While she is an hourly employee, I am in middle to upper management. I suspect this could be some of the problem, the lead operator may think, I got her the job, which I did not. I also suspect that the lead may want to get my wife to quit, because, if the lead were to do something wrong, it could get back to upper management, resulting in her getting reprimanded or fired. I don't want to do go to my immediately bosses, and complain but the situation at work for my wife is getting frustrating, for both of us. She still has 30 days left of her probation.

I like the idea of being a doctor, but to be honest with myself, I'm not that hard of a worker. My grades are average (A's, B's, and a couple of C's. But I've never had lower than a C). My strengths are in science (usually the kind that doesn't require a lot of math), English, and history. I'm only fond of kids from a distance, I have problems meeting deadlines because I often procrastinate on things I don't want to do, and I don't think I'd be able to stand sitting in a cubicle all day. I want something that will keep my interest and keep me entertained--I work my hardest for things I enjoy.

I do plan on going to college. I'll go to the best college willing to accept me.

Other careers I have thought about are: archaeology, environmental science, wildlife biology, photography, writing, astronomy, journalism, psychology

I worked for a lab for almost a year before I had to have knee surgery. They laid me off because I needed to be off for six weeks. I ended up working for them again through a temp agency, I said I wouldn't work for them again because I hated it but I really don't like being without a job. I am going to start work somewhere else on Tuesday, I know it's not enough notice but I've never gotten any help from them with anything. I just feel really bad quitting and I don't want everyone pissy with me for my last few days. Any suggestions?

I have a brother who left a job recently. He has received two paychecks since he left; seems someone in payroll has made a mistake. Aside from the moral issues tied with this, what would the law say. I believe that his former employer would have every right to the money back. Additionally, there were payroll taxes deducted which I assume the employer would want from my brother.

My brother thinks the money is his and is currently spending it on some bills. I want to give him some advice before he digs himself in too far.

Anyone have any thoughts?

No, I am not promoting it or spamming.

I was approached not too long ago from some guy singing the praises of Quixtar. He was going on and on about how I could make money by shopping online yadda yadda yadda.

I found out later that Quixtar is a sister company of Amway. THAT was a red flag right there.

Not to mention that you have to cough up something like $165 up front or some figure like that.

But I was wondering if anyone here ever did Quixtar and make at least decent money? Or if you have a horror story about it, you can share it here also if you'd like.
